How do I stop yelling at my kids? A Season 1 wrap up exploring shame, regret...and why you are not a "bad parent".

Welcome to Parenting Breakdown! 

 In this final episode of Season 1, Matt and Rachel discuss: 

- A listener question about how to stop yelling at her child and navigate feelings of regret about parenting 

- Choosing how to relate to - and even turn towards - uncomforable thoughts and feelings so we can move through our shame 

- The patriarchy (our 3rd co-host) comes back for a final visit, contextualizing all those harmful ideas about the "perfect" mom 

- How our modern society makes it so hard to be present with ourselves and our kids
