Tending to the Garden
Padma Gordon
We discussed the essential components of creating a container in your relationship. What does it mean to live inside of a couple bubble? First off, it means that you consider your partner when you are making decisions and they do the same for you. You tend to your relationship just as you would a garden.
Tending to Your Inner Child
Padma Gordon
Our Rare Mothers in Relationship Workshop is turning out to be quite wonderful. Each week we gather and share our vulnerable hearts. There is a great deal of wisdom in our circle which is made up of Rare Mothers ranging in age from their 30’s to their 70’s. If you have any inclination to come, please do.
Gratitude Changes Everything
Padma Gordon
Being grateful for the little things that your partner does makes them feel good and they know they are valued. By doing this, you are leading a culture of gratitude, a life where appreciating each other is the norm.
Team Play & Appreciation
Padma Gordon
Our Rare Mothers in Relationship Workshop is stunning. I am touched by everyone’s willingness to share vulnerably about their own tender places and the tenderness in their relationships. This is the kind of intimacy that we are growing in our workshop.
Are You Willing To Receive Help?
Padma Gordon
As a Rare Mother you need help, yet at times you may push it away because you’re wanting a specific kind of help and you’re not sure that someone can give it to you. Or perhaps you may be finding it hard to recognize when help is being offered. It is possible that you may have a particular idea of how it should look.
Being on the Same Team
Padma Gordon
This week we will focus on how to work and play together as a team. What are the qualities of a good team player? How can you coach yourself so that you can skillfully lead your team? What are you bringing to your team? What does your partner bring?
Commitment Holds Us
Padma Gordon
When you are committed, it creates a sense of safety. You are already dealing with so many unknowns and so many things that test you and challenge you. You deserve to feel safe.
Community Connection
Padma Gordon
We took a deeper dive into attachment theory in our Rare Mothers in Relationships Workshop this past week. Some of what we explored: How can we best love the people around us? What is running our responses from behind the curtain? It can all be traced back to our early years of life.
Feeling Safe and Held In a Relationship
Padma Gordon
In our Rare Mothers in Relationship Workshop this past week we focused on what it means to be a we or a steady couple. As a Rare Mother, you need to feel held in your primary relationship. When you know that your partner or a close friend has your back, you can relax and feeling relaxed supports a sense of expansiveness. You are holding A LOT in your life and it’s essential that you feel supported.
