Growing up, we hear countless valuable lessons from our parents and caregivers. In our youth, we often dismiss their words, convinced that we know better. However, as we transition into adulthood, we come to realize the wisdom in their advice, and we might think, "If only I had listened."

In this podcast, we explore some of those hard truths that many of us overlook, such as: you always have a choice, honesty includes being truthful with yourself, the importance of breaking free from the victim mentality, taking responsibility for your actions, and recognizing that people behave according to your boundaries.

I share my journey of learning these lessons, often wishing I had paid closer attention to my parents' insights. Join me as I teach what I most need to learn, reflecting on these invaluable nuggets of wisdom.
