Shownotes

In today’s episode, Tom is back on the podcast, and we’re diving into all things cows, kids, and communication gaps. Earlier this week, Tom set out to move cattle with the kids while I stayed in for a workday. What was supposed to be a simple “fun” project quickly turned into a bit of a rodeo!

The heart of this episode is communication and perspective. What seems clear to one person may feel COMPLETELY different to another! When we don’t pause to check for understanding, things can spiral quickly. 

In the end, this story was a reminder of the learning that comes from moments like these. It’s vital that we slow down, make sure we’re on the same page, and recognize that communication isn’t just about what you say - it’s about how it’s heard!

In this episode, we cover:

  • A recent story of our kids “helping” with the cows (and how it really went)
  • How Tom’s inner critic made the situation feel worse than it actually was
  • Why clear communication matters so much (especially with family)
  • The very different perspectives between Tom and the kids
  • How Tom’s emotional waves have shifted through inner work and regulation
