Mum's True Tea w/Kendall Lasha

• EP23: ARE MOMS REALLY NARCISSISTS?

  Summary In this episode of Mum's True Tea, Kendall Lasha delves into the complex dynamics between mothers and their children, particularly focusing on the rising trend of labeling mothers as narcissists. She challenges the audience to reflect on their perceptions of motherhood, the impact of therapy on familial relationships, and the importance of empathy and understanding in the healing process. Through personal anecdotes and thought-provoking questions, Kendall emphasizes the need for forgiveness, the recognition of mothers as individuals with their own traumas, and the responsibility each person has for their own healing journey. Takeaways All moms are not narcissists; this label is overused. Therapy should be a tool for healing, not a weapon. Mothers are human beings with their own struggles. Children often overlook their mothers' sacrifices. Forgiveness can be a personal choice, independent of apologies. Healing requires empathy for both oneself and others. Setting boundaries doesn't mean being cruel or judgmental. A good mother often goes unnoticed in her efforts. Self-reflection is crucial when feeling triggered. Healing should not lead to selfishness or heartlessness.

• EP20: SET YOURSELF FREE FROM THE WEIGHT OF YOUR CHILDREN'S CHOICES

  Summary In this conversation, I discuss the emotional burdens that mothers carry due to their children's choices, emphasizing the importance of shedding these burdens to achieve personal freedom and peace. I highlight some of the struggles of parenting, particularly in the face of addiction and legal troubles, rebellion, and advocate for authenticity and setting boundaries as essential steps for mothers to protect their mental health. The conversation encourages mothers to learn to let go, stop trying to control the situations their children put themselves in, seek support, be honest about their feelings, and prioritize their well-being while allowing their children to face the consequences of their actions. Takeaways We need to let go of the weight of our children's choices. Rescuing our kids often stems from our own pride. Watching a child struggle is gut-wrenching and heartbreaking. Shame thrives in silence; sharing our struggles is powerful. Authenticity brings freedom and connection. Allowing children to face consequences is crucial for their growth. Setting boundaries is an act of love for both parent and child. You cannot pour from an empty cup; prioritize your well-being. Emotional weight can be just as burdensome as physical weight. Choosing peace is essential for a fulfilling life.
