Facing Opposition: A Mother's Guide to Overcoming Internal and External Struggles

View descriptionShare

Today, Dr. Dunni delves into the theme of facing opposition in our lives, particularly for mothers. She emphasizes the importance of optimizing our mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical well-being when confronted with challenges, whether they arise from within or from external sources. Dr. Dunni introduces a practical framework called the "CALM" model, which guides listeners through the process of confirming their feelings, analyzing situations, laying out a plan, and managing their responses to the opposition.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Opposition can be both internal and external. Internal opposition often manifests as self-doubt and identity crises, while external opposition can come from various sources, including family, friends, and societal pressures.
  • To effectively love and support others, it is crucial to first love and accept oneself. This self-acceptance lays the foundation for healthy relationships with others, including children and partners.
  • A practical approach to facing opposition involves the CALM model, which stands for Confirm how you feel, Analyze the situation, Lay out a plan, and Manage the implementation.
  • Confirming one's feelings is essential for emotional health. Acknowledging emotions like anger, sadness, or frustration allows individuals to process their experiences rather than suppress them, preventing future emotional outbursts.
  • When creating a plan to address opposition, it is important to remain flexible and have a backup plan. This adaptability ensures that individuals can navigate unexpected challenges and find solutions that work for them and others involved.

BEST MOMENTS

"Sometimes you're pushing something that isn't quite strong and it seems to be pushing back."

"Love your neighbour as yourself... it's only when you love yourself, you can love your neighbor."

"Every mom is a super mom, not because of what they do, but who they are."

"Face everything and rise."

"When you face opposition, the best way forward will be backward."
