Mastering Survival Mode (and Learning to Thrive)
From The Family Lab: Experiments in Parenting and Home Management · 41:47
Show by Whitney Archibald
In some ways, this podcast episode saved my life. It was the last podcast interview I did before my rock-climbing accident, and I used it as a lifeline during my recovery. Hopefully your versions of survival mode are not as extreme as mine, but this episode is a blueprint for the continuous cycle from surviving to reentry to normalization to exploring to thriving. This is a re-edit, now with video. You can find more from Jessica Jackson at thrivinginmotherhood.com
