How to Lead by Example (Even When You Don't Want To)
Happy, Holy Mama - A podcast by Emily Brown - Mondays
Categories:
It’s the most infuriating experience to want to do better yourself, but feel like your own behavior is contingent on what someone else does. Especially if that someone else is your own child and should know better. And then you end up feeling like a bad mom because you can’t seem to get yourself under control. Guilt is almost always followed by shame and that one-two punch just makes you want to run and hide from your kids…which of course doesn’t teach them how to change their own behavior, either. In today’s episode I’m going to give you my one simple strategy to come back from a mistake. And when you are willing to do this one thing, then you begin to lead by example. You become the adult you want them to be someday, even after a mess up. They learn the best things from you, which was the whole point behind homeschooling in the first place.
