Hi friends!
Today's episode will be the shortest episode ever! You're welcome. haha.
It's called "The Hindsight 20/20 Rule," and I want to write a book about it, eventually.
For several years now, I have had this 'rule' and mantra, and I can't even tell you how many times it's helped me in such a huge way. I hope it helps you too!

Hi friends,
I'm so glad you're here today!
If you struggle deeply when your children or family member struggles, or they're 'having a moment or meltdown'— I hope this episode encourages you!
It's so important to remind ourselves that our care for others is rooted in love. You're more amazing than you realize.
"The last thing we can control in our children is their emotions."
Best,
Dani :)

Hi friends!
Life can be so triggering and stressful! I have this motto I try to live by: "72 degrees and sunny." It means that no matter what is happening around me, I want to be "72 degrees and sunny" inside. It's my way of helping me regulate my emotions, especially when I'm triggered. And hello, that's daily! I don't want to be "104 degrees", raging with anxiety, OR "32 degrees", and struggling with despair. You get my drift!
Today I'm talking about three simple tools and two important questions I ask myself that help get me back to my 72 degrees and sunny. I hope it helps you! It helps me 50/50! ;) But that's better than nothing, right?!

Here are the prayers I mentioned today as well:
The Serenity Prayer
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change
The courage to change the things I can.
And the = to know the difference.
The Lord's Prayer
Our Father, who is in heaven, Hallowed be your name. Your Kingdom come. Your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil, for yours is the Kingdom, the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.
Huge blessings and much love,
Dani
