What does tough love mean in parenting?

"tough love" combined empathy to send a message that essentially says, "I know you don't like the rules, but I'm going to enforce them anyway because it's good for you, and I love you."

What is tough love in an adult to an adult form?

It doesn't mean you accept maltreatment or abuse but that you love the person. It can also mean being supportive and doing what you can to guide them in a positive direction. Tough love is about maintaining distance and setting boundaries with an individual who is not respecting your boundaries or abilities.

Here’s the truth: 

Tough love isn’t a formula or quick fix to the heartache you face. But it’s the right thing to do in some situations — and the only healthy choice — even if change doesn’t look exactly like you had hoped.

To end on a positive everyone is faking it until they make it. Emotions are important in all of your relationships no matter the status, and love is always free to give. 

We hope you enjoy this and consider helping out!

THIS episode right here is Mama Chill Club. It’s two mamas coming together, talking about where we are at in motherhood, sharing tips and finding community through the chaos. How fun and tough motherhood is and how we utilize cannabis for calming, creativity, and not a bandaid to just get through the day.

Betty is so many things. She’s relatable, she’s the epitome of caring, she has a heart of gold. Her journey begins being opposed to cannabis becaue “I’m a mom, I can’t buy weed” to passionate budtender with a passion for helping anyone that comes through the dispensary door.

We demystify the process of going to a dispensary (where you purchase cannabis) to what questions to ask, how to utilize the budtenders (the hospitality you are purchasing cannabis from) and why the whole experience is not intimidating at all. All our nerves and fears around buying weed are invalid, because you are walking into a group of people that found healing or coping and want to help you heal and cope too!

Budtenders are a wealth of knowledge for so many reasons. From the trainings they take, the passion they have for something that has changed their own life, and its really one of the only places you can go to that all the employees are trying the products, you get reviews and recommendations right from the source! There’s a ton of products, products to use the product and it can be overwhelming, if you go in and be honest about where you are, they can meet you where you’re at.

We cover a ton in this episode, and you will walk away from this episode with so much confidence to approach your first time in a dispensary or continue to deepen your knowledge of yourself and your body to find what works best for you! Because that’s what it’s all about, not something to avoid pain or problems, its medicine that can help you work through or find relief to get better.

Enjoy!

Sometimes it feels like our bodies are working against us...and our pain or problems linger and begin to rob us of our thoughts and energy.  

But I can tell you that the body wants to heal, but sometimes it is out of balance and doesn't know how to get better.  As we journey though our injury states, we must also navigate the landmines in our thinking as they try to tank our moods and remove our power.  

Join the Professor and Erika L, Nutritional Coach, as they discuses the INJURY BODY and INJURY BRAIN - how injury removes access to ourselves and how to help get it back...and how weed can help!

There are folks out there who are curious about cannabis, but think that using it or continuing to use it will turn them into a substance abuser, burnout, or doper.

There are also folks out there who use a significant volume of cannabis, but are unsure if they have crossed the line of use into abuse.

With such a heavy stigma, it can be tough to judge and evaluate what is beneficial to our lives when there is so much misinformation and influence from the war on drugs.

Join the Professor and Keegan Mack as they discuss a new way of looking at substance use, abuse, and how to judge your tolerance with better accuracy.
