"You gotta show up as yourself, not your curated, I’m-so-successful, I’m-so-good self on social media, but yourself.

Still celebrating women this month—internationally! 🇬🇧 Why do we need to hear these things? ✨You’ve been working so hard on x. Women are always doing for many people, but the result of our efforts are not always noticed or appreciated. Noticing effort encourages us to keep going. ✨You can say no. Sometimes we just need permission not to do the thing—especially when we say yes out of obligation, which is statistically far more for women. ✨You’re an amazing mom. Because every mother I know has a kid going through something hard—and we often blame ourselves for it. Yet, more often, it is not a reflection of parenting—especially if everyone can relate! ✨I’ll figure out dinner. Because we don’t want to meal plan every day of our life until we die. ✨Go to bed! We tired!! Share this with a woman who you know needs to hear one of these things today. ❤️ _ #WomenSupportingWomen #InternationalWomensMonth #EmpoweredWomen #SelfCareForWomen #WomenLiftWomen

It starts at home. In the conversations we are having. What we choose to make important. How we bring up difficult topics and ask tough questions. How we show compassion and empathy to those who need it most. It all starts at home. ❤️

Very grateful to talk on NBC News Now about real parenting issues that matter. Pulling Carolina in was very unexpected, but so proud of her for bravely using her voice. Watch the full segment here: https://youtu.be/RNQA_VcYfKU

Words can have a major impact on our kids, especially on their mental and emotional health. Verbal harassment is the most commonly reported type of bullying. Psychotherapist Niro Feliciano joins NBC News Now to talk about how to help our kids navigate hurtful language.

Many of you who have seniors are waiting to hear from colleges, and early decisions are going out as we speak. Here’s some thoughts to help navigate this uncertain time. I also love what psychologist Lisa Damour reminds us: “Make sure you are not happier or more upset than your child when you find out the news.” Especially the latter. Thinking of all of you and your amazing seniors. No matter what happens, may they know truly how amazing they are. 💫❤️
