jlync008 's review for:
I needed to hear this on many levels. So much of this book resonated with me. A few quotes in particular:
and for sure this one...
Brené Brown's "guideposts" on shame and guilt, hope and hard work, and the idea of not swooping in to fix any obstacle your kids encounter, but sitting with them and talking them through the problem and relating to them on a personal level really hit home. Letting your kids see the struggles and challenges you face, having a sense of belonging, I mean really, every guidepost struck a note with me.
Added to that, Brown's delivery being spot on and feeling like she's just sitting down and having a conversation, made for an amazing listen. This is for sure something I will be rereading very soon and highly recommend it for anyone with kids.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"Kids learn so much more from what you do, than what you say. So be the person that you want your kids to be."
"Guilt = I did something bad. Shame = I am bad."
"We're raising children who have little tolerance for disappointment and have a strong sense of entitlement, which is very different than agency. Entitlement is 'I deserve this just because I want it' and agency is 'I know I can do this.' This combination of fear and disappointment, entitlement, and performance pressure is a recipe for hopelessness and self-doubt."
and for sure this one...
"If we want to live a Wholehearted life, we have to become intentional about cultivating sleep and play, and about letting go of exhaustion as a status symbol and productivity as self-worth."
