Most days, I love my job. That’s why I do it. Some days I REALLY love my job – and today is one of those days. Why? Because I got to support Mr. C’s mom, and it feels damn good to leave a session knowing that sharing my knowledge and experience helped someone feel validated and confident in their own ability to know, understand, and care for their child.
All I did was share information about Mr. C that she already knew deep inside. When the words came out of my mouth, she said, “Yes! Yes! That explains him perfectly!” Now she can trust in her own intuition about what works and doesn’t work for her child (and herself!) even more than she did before.
There’s another piece here though.
Mr. C is a sensitive and energetic toddler. He’s curious and cautious at the same time. He isn’t communicating with words yet, and he’s a super picky eater. His mom knows him well - but knowing your child well and being responsive to them doesn’t tell you how to prepare to send them to a peanut-free school when all they’ll eat is peanut butter sandwiches. It doesn’t tell you how to present unfamiliar foods in a way that doesn’t trigger them. And it definitely doesn’t shorten the learning curve on how to manage mealtime “behaviors”.
That’s where I come in.
I translated Mr. C’s Human Design into ACTIONABLE strategies that his mom feels good about trying and that are aligned with who Mr. C is and how he processes energy in this world. And I guarantee you he will make progress. Not just because of the strategies I recommended, but because his mom feels CONFIDENT in using them.
Cheers to all the parents in this world trying to get their kids to eat a SunButter sandwich 🤣🤣🤣
✨✨✨May we all find foods that nourish our children’s bodies, minds and souls ✨✨✨
