As Long As I Was Good, She Was Good: A Beautiful Conversation With A Single Mom
Episode description
- Alicia shares her experience as a single mom raising a daughter and how she weathered the different stages when, as she so wisely puts it, "Sometimes their star is not as bright during a period of their lives."
- "And then I realized, as long as I was good, she was good." Alicia shares how she learned to prioritize her own needs and reminds us to give ourselves what we need and be OK with it.
- Alicia shares her path to finding independence for both herself and her daughter, and how she snuck in time for herself with practices like her "30 minute magic" to get quiet time.
- The amazing annual practice Alicia began on her 40th birthday to help her remember who she was as a person. Alicia's promise to herself inspired Stacey so much that it became one of the seeds planted that helped create this podcast.
- Alicia's revolutionary practice of positivity and how living with joy helps her ward off the negative so she doesn't "look like what she's been through."
