How to enjoy your parenting experiencee

If your eyes are a camera, right? Your identity is the lens that you're looking through and it changes the filter. It changes what you're able to see, changes what you're able to perceive about yourself, about your role as a parent, about your teenager and what's even possible for you. It's the story that's running in the background. I'm a bad mom. My teen hates me. This is just how teenagers are. We've lost our connection forever. There's no hope. Identity work is about examining those stories, questioning them. them and deliberately choosing who you want to be as a person, as a parent, and as a teenager. And when your identity shifts, everything around you starts to shift too.
