What if this was always part of the deal?
What if you were always going to face this challenge right now ? How differently would you approach it? Your kid was always supposed to have 7 cavities in one visit. Your car was always going to break down 4 times and each time they said they fixed it, they were wrong. What if you …

I say this a lot.
I’m sorry, you are right I say this a lot. I used to have a really hard time apologizing. I used to fight, avoid and blame. My fights would drag out into hours and sometimes days. I didn’t know how to do it better. My mentor Brooke Castillo taught me to always agree …
