Published: May 1, 2023, 7 a.m.

For 750 episodes (750!!!) I have been preaching to you about shining.\xa0\xa0\n\u201cSTOP SHRINKING and START SHINING\u201d, I have said over and over again.\xa0\xa0\nToday, I want to acknowledge there is a cost to the shining if we don\u2019t keep an eye out for our own physical, mental and emotional regulation and restoration.\xa0We need to give ourselves time and space to rest and recover after we run all over town shining like a mother.\xa0\xa0\nWhat does shining look like to you?\xa0Perhaps something like this:\n\nTrying something new that is physically, mentally or emotionally taxing\n\nStepping into a new level of visibility or exposure in your community or work\n\nBeing vulnerable in front of your peers\n\nHaving a hard conversation\xa0\n\nDoing something you\u2019re scared of\n\nShowing up for intense work\n\nHolding space for others\n\n\nWhen you challenge yourself to show up and SHINE in any of these ways, it\u2019s equally important to show up and REST afterward.\xa0Today, we talk through 4 ways you can recover from your extra bright, shiny (and awesome) endeavors, so you can keep going without burning out on shining.\xa0\xa0\nLink mentioned:\nParent Prep for Pride Month 2023!\xa0Join me on Tuesday, May 16th for a virtual panel to learn how to use this Pride Month 2023 as a powerful way to increase the safety and wellbeing of our LGBTQ+ youth: \xa0www.PrideandJoyParents.com\n\nWe love the sponsors that make this show possible!
