Building Strong Families Through Self-Improvement
*Top 1 Globally Ranked Podcast*
Hey, Parents! Welcome to Fulfillment Therapy, your space for healing and personal growth, where you can nurture yourselves to enrich your family life.
We know the drill - you’re constantly on the hunt for ways to be the best parent and spouse, but it often feels like there’s barely a moment to catch your breath. Balancing your duties, connecting with your kids, and tackling stress can leave you feeling completely exhausted. Mornings start with the best of intentions, but somehow, they often unravel into a whirlwind of irritations with everyone heading in different directions by the day’s end. It’s a stressful cycle, and it’s clear that something is missing.
I’m Kendra, a mother and therapist who’s been there before. I’ve learned that to be the best parent you can be, you must prioritize self growth. When you stop ignoring and neglecting your own needs and well-being, you’ll find that you have more energy and less resentment to offer your family. In our relentless pursuit of being super parents, we often forget about the importance of self development and maintaining good mental health, which can lead to anxiety and depression.
Balancing the responsibilities of family life while nurturing your personal growth can be difficult. However, it’s essential to become the best version of yourself to be the best parent and spouse. Fulfillment Therapy is about more than just refining your parenting skills; it’s about unlocking your full potential. It’s about rediscovering your values and faith, and creating a safe haven for both you and your family to flourish.
In this podcast, we’ll learn tips on reducing stress, overwhelm, and depression, while showing you how to take better care of yourself without neglecting your family and core values. You’ll discover how to advocate for yourself--without shame--and how to nurture your individual worth in sustainable, healthy ways. By replenishing your own cup and meeting your own unmet needs, you can provide more for your family AND yourself. We’ll work toward a life where peace, confidence, and a reduced guilt become the norm. You’ll soon discover that your dream of a balanced, joyful life will become your daily reality. It’s time to model healthy self-care, and tap into your unique gifts and talents to make family life more fulfilling than you ever imagined possible.

“It’s a tricky line to find-to be engaged with our children and their lives, but not so meshed that we lose perspective on what they need.” - Dr. Deborah Gilboa
“Children of helicopter parents have higher levels of anxiety because they have been protected their whole life and get anxious when challenged.” - Choosing Therapy
“Experiencing failure and overcoming challenges teach children new skills and, crucially, that they are capable of handling setbacks.” - Dr. Deborah Gilboa
“The challenge arises when parenting is driven by fear and decisions are made based on what might go wrong. It becomes difficult to remember the valuable lessons children learn when we aren't directing every move.” - Dr. Deborah Gilboa
