Full-Tilt Parenting: Strategies, Insights, and Connection for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Children · TPP 066: Allison Carmen on Finding Peace in Uncertainty and Embracing the Word “Maybe" · 18 Jul 2017 podcast

We're so busy writing the story about how it should have been and how things should be that there's a sacred moment often in front of us in this present state that we miss.

That's the thing, too, maybe brings me very present with my children.

And whatever's going on with them in the moment, if I'm not writing the story about what it means for tomorrow and what it means for next week and what it means for next year, I really capture the beauty of the moment with them.

Even if it's a difficult situation, there's always beauty.

There's always something sacred, I find.

So it really improves also not just letting go of your fear, but also improving the quality of your life with your family and your friends and everything that you do.

Right, because deep down, we're afraid we're not okay.

And deep down, we're afraid our children aren't okay.

And that that's fear.

Our our

our fear of the unknown.

And I think that if you think about it, your relationship with uncertainty dictates most things that we do every day.

what job we're going to take, who we're going to pick to love, what we're going to pick to... It's all based on are we willing to not know?

And if you're willing not to know and you're not afraid of what the future will bring, you're going to have a much more expansive life.

So yeah, this fear that we have, it's a basic fear we're not okay.

And we feel we're not okay because of something that might be experiencing in the moment or the fact that we don't know the future.

So I agree with that.

I think that when we're not in fear and we're not projecting...

And we're very present.

We're in a more of an open-hearted state of love.
