Mom Superpowers Challenge

Here’s a secret to bring out the best in yourself and your kids – through the holidays and into the new year: give them the gift of a confident you.

You need to believe in yourself, your mom skills, and the choices you make with your kids, moment to moment. Whether you are handling power struggles,  requiring respect, or just doing your best to get all the important things done, it is essential that you make your choices – and stick by them – with confidence.

This includes confidently walking back the choices you later figure out were mistakes, apologizing if needed, and moving on. (The last time I apologized for a choice I made during my sons’ growing-up years was last year. They are in their mid-thirties. You keep learning, you keep improving all your life.)
