I’m standing in my kitchen, staring at the mess, kids bickering in the background, and my brain is screaming, “We’re going down!”

You know those moments when you’re about to lose it, when correction mode feels inevitable, and you just want to eject out of the whole parenting gig for five minutes? Yeah, I’ve been there. More times than I can count.

And here’s the wild thing: those are the exact moments when I’ve learned to practice something that used to feel impossible for me, feeling proud of myself.

Not arrogant. Not fake. Not “my kids are perfect angels and I’m crushing it.” I mean the quiet kind of proud, the kind that whispers, “Hey, you stayed calm. You showed up. You tried.”

This episode is the second half of a two-part series. In Episode #176 we talked about regret (ouch). Today we’re swinging to the other end of the spectrum: pride. The good kind. The kind we want to model for our kids so they don’t grow up thinking they have to earn love or validation by being flawless.

Here’s what you’ll hear inside:

  • Why pride has been so hard for me (confession: I used to literally gag when my husband read me kind emails from clients).
  • How parents in my programs are learning to celebrate themselves in the middle of laundry piles, meltdowns, and messy houses.
  • Why feeling proud is not optional fluff — it’s actually a superpower that calms your nervous system and fuels growth.
  • A question you can ask yourself today that will help you create the emotion of pride on purpose.

Parenting is full of emergency landings. You’re going to have turbulence, and you’re going to have moments when you’re convinced you’ve lost the plot. But if you can walk away from those moments and still say, “I’m proud of myself for how I showed up” that changes everything.
So let’s talk about how to land the plane safely, even when you feel like you’re about to lose it.
