I have two teenagers, and we all have impatient moments. I’ve discovered that when I acknowledge that, when I call it out with grace and truth – like, hey, I’m feel super impatient right now – it takes the wind out of the tension. My kids will say, “Me too!” As a core fitness specialist, I’ve also seen how demonstrating patience and grace with my own body + consistently showing up for my workouts at home seems to have taught my kids to be patient and gracious with their own bodies!
