I love how you’ve been parenting so intentionally - particularly when it comes to breaking cycles and ensuring equality between the genders. I’ve just read an article about a scientific study that shows that mother/daughter relationships result in twice the cortisol spike for the mother and I’ve been wondering how much of this is because of cultural conditioning.
I'd love to read that study, I definitely feel the spike in cortisol several times a day! I do feel that if we are serious about changes for the next generation, it takes a lot of self-reflection first on our conditioning and expectations of girls and women.
great insights to a relatively new mum - 5 years in, though on the other end a step mum to a 14yo who skipped the early years
Thank you, I keep reminding myself, every stage is a phase, hopefully that helps us cope and appreciate every age.
