I was feeling a bit discouraged with how disconnected I was with my kids. Honestly, that probably isn’t true (I am with them all day, every day…) but I needed a way to create a new story for myself. Then one Sunday night on a zoom call with my family, we started sharing stories about my dad’s mom. He ended our remembering with, “She really knew how to make you feel loved.”
And that is what I realized I was seeking – not so much connect, but that atmosphere of love in our home that starts with me.
This weeks episode is all about two simple ways to create an atmosphere of love in the home.
