I haven't even raised any money.
Like what kind of parent am I?
I went down that road.
I haven't even donated any money.
And just every possible way, you know, every bat I could pick up about my son and the way that I'm failing him as his mother, I was thinking of it.
And, you know, and it was just, you know, how long do you sit at a red light?
Not that long.
And I was totally lost in thought.
And then as the light turned green,
I remember thinking to myself, okay, you know what?
This isn't helpful at all.
It doesn't help me become a better parent.
It's not helping my son.
And I need to give myself a break.
I am doing the best that I can and I can do better in here to here the way.
So it's it's really and and trust me when I tell you.
I have been working on this for nearly a decade of learning how to speak to myself in a different manner and learning how to listen for that voice that tells me I'm terrible or not good enough or failing.
And I don't expect anyone listening who's never done this work before to be able to do that the next time you're at a red light beating yourself up.
But it is, you know, if I could just give you like two pieces of advice.
It's first you need to know that you're in it because some people will spin in that place for hours or days or months.
