Lee Davy's Take on Parenting, Time, and Personal Growth

When we are both triggered, I am a child. That part of me is a child and it needs to be spoken to in right brain, to right brain method of communication, love and understanding, empathy.
Ever felt overwhelmed by the juggling act of parenting, work, and personal growth? Lee Davy has been there, and in this episode of the '1000 Days Sober Podcast', he shares his thoughts on navigating these challenges. Drawing from his own experiences and a diverse range of books, Lee dives into what it means to be a present parent while managing the demands of life.
He opens up about his relationship with his daughter, Zia, and how 'The Whole-Brain Child' by Daniel Siegel and Tina Bryson has shaped his approach to parenting. By appealing to both the logical and emotional sides of the brain, Lee finds more effective ways to connect with his child. He also discusses the pitfalls of negative communication patterns, using insights from Alice Miller's 'The Drama of The Gifted Child'. But it's not just about parenting.
Lee touches on the concept of katabasis, a journey of self-discovery, inspired by Robert Bly's 'Iron John: A Story About Men'. He emphasizes the importance of planning for the future and avoiding the trap of instant gratification. This episode isn't just a monologue; it's a heartfelt conversation with listeners about finding balance and meaning in life's chaos. If you're looking for practical advice mixed with personal stories, this episode is a must-listen.
