THIS WEEK'S TOPIC: A Mother’s Heart

Mamas!

Amy with her son, MatthewMy radio show last week was on A Mother’s Heart (click here to listen to the archive). What a powerful and rich topic! Just the phrase immediately brings up emotion. There is such a range of heart qualities - gentle, fierce, strong, vulnerable, deep and so much more.

This week I ask you to explore what’s in your heart as a mother. Scroll down to Your Coaching Moment to take a peek.

All the best from your coach,

YOUR COACHING Moment

A Mother’s Heart

Close your eyes right now and put your hand over your heart. This is a mother’s heart. What comes to mind when I ask you what a mother’s heart is like? What words, colors, emotions or images to mind?

One mother said, “gentle, sweet, pure – the soft melting feeling of being a mother – of my heart being pulled to my child.”

Another mother explained, “the lioness, the protector – the rage that can spring out my heart when my children are in danger or threatened.”

And one mom put it, “a mother’s heart is about that unconditional love – it’s not about self – it’s about these little people.”

What is amazing about considering your heart as a mother is that there is no one right description. You are not a better mother if you describe your heart as warm, loving, giving. The woman who described her heart as a bit prickly, sensitive and careful is just as valid. The way YOU love as a mother, what is available in your heart as a mother, is special to you. Precious.

What I want for you today is some connection – simply to connect with your heart as a mother, whatever that might be. There is a vast reservoir of power in your heart to tap into. The point in connecting is so that you can fully feel your heart and use it to unlock your absolute potential as a woman and mother.

COACH YOURSELF: Get out a piece of paper and draw a heart. Now jot down some words or phrases that capture a bit of the essence of your heart as a mother. Look at the words you wrote down. I challenge you to live today embodying those heart qualities.
