Interview with Dawn Strachan

What kind of parent do you want to be? What does it look like to be a single parent?

Our thoughts and feelings don’t make us who we are but our actions do and our actions are informed by our thoughts and feelings. If you want to succeed, you need to be telling yourself you can. Notice the destructive thoughts. What are the themes.

How. Why. What this looks like. Insight Timer and other apps that help. Creating a mindfulness/meditation practice and integrating it into your routine.

Belly breathing
Healthy foods, daily movement/exercise, sleep and their impact on brain chemistry.
How are you taking care of yourself — physically? emotionally? spiritually?

Why you may need to tell your ex certain things to get through the divorce that feel insincere and how to tell him to fuck off without him even knowing it so that there’s no blowback on you.

Fighting yourself is no– but here’s what finding your fight looks like.
