Hey there! It’s Jamie from "Oh Crap Parenting" and in this week’s episode, I'm super stoked to chat with Raquel Hopkins, a certified coach, therapist, and the founder of Success is Complicated. We’re diving into the concept of capacity in parenting, something I’ve touched on before, but Raquel brings a whole new depth to it. She shares her journey from a high-flying HR professional to a mental health advocate, stirring in some fresh insights from adult development theory and how it meshes with our everyday struggles and triumphs as parents. We talk about everything from the pressures of modern motherhood to finding your personal capacity for growth and change. Raquel’s stories about balancing work, life, and the messy, beautiful act of raising kids will resonate with anyone who’s ever felt overwhelmed or underprepared in the parenting trenches. So, tune in, lean back, and let's unravel these complicated threads together because parenting is tough, but oh so rewarding!
