Letting Go Without Letting Everything Fall Apart

Parenting gurus love to say “just let it go,” but seldom do they get specific about what exactly you’re supposed to let go, or how to deal with the aftermath when you do. When letting everything go feels like letting your whole house fall apart, the Council steps in. Lisa and her Council of Moms-- Julie Taylor, Emilie Campbell, and Sunny Mahe talk honestly about holding firm to your principles and loosening your grip on the things that don’t matter as much--and how to know the difference between the two. They discuss circumstances where different kids require different expectations, how values can be your guiding light, and how to raise happy kids without carrying constant stress.
