Welcome back to another episode of the Aware Parenting Stories podcast. After having a few weeks off, I am back with the final episode for this year and the last episode in the series of conversations I have been having about Embracing Imperfection.
In this episode I share some final reflections on where perfectionism comes from, the effect of our childhood experiences and the socio-cultural factors that play into this for many mothers. I share more about how to support ourselves with compassion, acknowledgement, finding safety for ourselves, bringing more play and laughter, meeting our own needs and offering ourselves reassurance, care and love.

Episode 129 - I am Perfect as I am: Embracing Imperfection with Rebecca Sheikh
Welcome back to another episode and the next instalment in my series on embracing our imperfection in Aware Parenting, in conversation this time with Rebecca Sheikh who is a level 2 Aware Parenting Instructor and the regional coordinator for the UK, Ireland and Sub-Saharan Africa.
In this episode we talk about how parenting invites us to tend to the hurt places within us from our childhoods and how adversity in childhood shapes who we are. We talk about how normal it is for parents to need support and Rebecca shares some of the ways that she has found most effective in her own healing. She shares some resources and processes for parents to support themselves in parenting and her own journey of learning to embrace imperfection. She ends with a poem that she finds particularly touching called Everything is Beautiful by Mark Nepo.
