Hello Reader,

News of the Week

Do you lie awake replaying every single parenting fail...?

This week I literally failed in front of my kids.

This week, during Winter festival, we went as a family together on the ice rink.

Our boys were excited...

Little did they know that their dad is hopeless on the ice hahahaha

I'm quite literally like a fuckin new born baby giraffe, learning to walk for the 1st time.

Picture that baby giraffe... long limbs, arms flailing, zero coordination.

...that's me on ice!

My last memory of being in the ice rink was with my cousin, probably over 20 years ago.

And I sucked back then too.

But here’s what stuck with me:

As parents, we expect ourselves to be steady all the time.
To never slip, never fumble, never embarrass ourselves in front of the kids.

But parenting is full of wobbly moments... like being a giraffe on ice.

And sometimes, that wobble turns into guilt.

The “I should’ve done better…” stories we replay at 2am.

So here are 3 ways I’m learning to deal with parental guilt:

✅ 1. Remember what they really see.​
My kids didn’t care that I looked like a baby giraffe.
They loved that I was out there with them.
Your kids don’t remember the perfect version of you.
They remember the present version.

✅ 2. Share the fail - don’t hide it.​
When we pretend to be perfect, we raise kids who think they have to be too.
Your honesty about messing up gives your kids permission to be human, too.

✅ 3. Shift the question at night.​
Instead of lying awake asking, “Where did I fail today?”
Try: “Where did I show up today?”
Because you did. Even if it was wobbly.

The truth?
You’ll have more days where you feel like the baby giraffe.
But that’s better than sitting on the side lines watching life go by.

Your presence matters more than your perfection.

Stay strong, stay steady... and if you’re wobbly, stay in the game anyway.

Your kids are watching.
And they’re learning more than you know.

Look, we are all imperfect parents going through life... but as a community we support each other, have each others back and we have fun along the way! No fluff, just real parents getting fit, having fun and navigating life... take a look 👇🏿👇🏿👇🏿

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes.

then cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes.

Place the cilantro, coconut sugar, ginger, garlic, ¼ cup of olive oil

Heat the 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a non stick skillet over a

the hot skillet and cook for 8 10 minutes, turning every few minutes

until cooked through on both sides.

Serve the skewers with spicy cilantro yogurt sauce and cucumber

salad, and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.
