Kathleen Scherek: Sacred Grandparenting & Working Moms - Part 2

Take 25 minutes over lunch to feed your soul!

Read Kathleen’s bio and hear the first part of our conversation in the Sacred Grandparenting – Part 1 episode! In this Part 2 episode, Nada and Kathleen discuss:

1. Onboarding the new baby into the family matrix
2. Sacredness is “inside work”
3. The push and pull of results and the journey
4. “Imposter syndrome” with working mamas
5. Removing “should” from our vocabulary

Key takeaways:

• Research shows that 2/3 of parents show a significant drop in their relationship in the first year after the birth of a child
• Women tend to have a more difficult time receiving
• Cultivating inner resources for ourselves, inner resources to connect with our child during pregnancy, inner reserves for our partner and the new member
• Not all pregnancies and the birthing process are smooth….and for whatever reason, it is meant to be that way
• Young children that are introduced to a spiritual practice (a personal relationship to a higher power that is loving and guiding) achieve higher levels of academic success and have a lower chance of becoming depressed as teenagers, using drugs/alcohol, and engaging in dangerous and unprotected sexual practices.
• Using gratitude, love, and forgiveness in sacred grandparenting and parenting
