Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Tammy J. Cohen, on air from May 12th
At the heart of it, what led to discovering my mission: Back on 3/20/20, when the world shut down, I had time to pause, reflect, and think, and I realized I was not ok and I knew I had to act. I immersed myself in programs and coursework to understand why I felt unworthy, resentful, and disengaged. To understand why I self-sabotaged and was reactive and judgmental. I went on a journey of discovery and realized that everything I was learning was simply not taught in school. So I decided to start sharing all this incredible wisdom I was learning from thought leaders across generations with my sons, because I wanted it to be different for them than it was for me growing up.
I realized that if I wanted to deepen my connection with my sons and change the relationship, I had to change the conversation and reach them where they are and where their generation is: on their cell phones. This was the AHA moment for me to use technology differently and to commit to an unconditional practice of texting my sons a meaningful, intentional message daily. No texting agendas, commands, reprimands, or reminders, no unsolicited advice, just an intentional message with no expectations of a response. I knew I had to show up differently. What I did not know was the ripple effect this practice would have on me over time. I did not just deepen my connection with my sons; I deepened my connection to myself, and it changed me. And this change rippled out to my family, friends, colleagues, and community. My text messaging practice led to the publication of my book, “Text Messages To My Sons: A Guide to Using Mobile Devices to Connect and Communicate with Your Kids.
