28: The Joys and Challenges of Parenting Multiple Children With My Mum

Fearlessly Curious

I'd love to hear from you. What about this episode did you / not enjoy? What would you like more of? This podcast is made for you!

Join me and my mum once again as we dive into a heartfelt conversation about the challenges and joys of raising multiple children.

We explore the unique experiences my mum faced while raising three kids with distinct personalities and needs.

Growing up in different times, my siblings and I each brought our own set of challenges and joys to our mum's life.

We discuss the importance of embracing each child's individuality, the lessons learned along the way, and the evolving dynamics of family relationships as we all grow and change.

As you listen to this intimate conversation between a mother and daughter, consider how your own relationships with your parents and siblings have shaped your life.

We hope that our discussion encourages you to reflect on the complexities of family dynamics and inspires you to strengthen the bonds with your own family members.

After all, when we understand each other better, we can all thrive together.

Here are the key takeaways from this episode:

02:04 - There’s no hard and fixed rule on how someone should raise their children.

07:17 - Listen to your children more instead of enforcing what you want them to be.

13:52 - Acknowledge that we can’t change the past, but with wisdom, we can create a better future.

16:17 - We are all doing the best that we can with what we know and what we don’t know.
