Stop Blaming Yourself

Stop Blaming Yourself

📱I was on the phone with my 19-year-old son who is away at college.

😳There I was blaming myself on the phone.

❤️‍🩹“Mom, it’s not your fault. It is never your fault,” my sweet son said to me.

♾️Why do I always blame myself for everything?

💣From my daughter’s impatience to my dog limping, I tend to direct the blame right to myself.

🪴The interesting thing that I noticed is that I don’t blame myself for the good things.

💼Do I blame myself for my children’s work ethic?

💕Do I blame myself for their kindness?

⚔️Why do I save all the blame for the challenges?

🚧Why do I even think that it’s all my fault?

📣Join me live tonight at 9PM ET on my personal Facebook page as I share with you how I plan to loosen this grip of self-blame, & change this dynamic that I have with myself…that maybe you also have with yourself? See you then!
