The Parent You Want To Be
Navigate stress and everyday challenges while making room for yourself and more joy in family life.
Malin’s debut
What if the answer isn’t to try harder?
A kind, practical guide for tired, loving parents.
Most parents know exactly what kind of parent they want to be: calm, present, patient. And most of us know how it feels to fall short, again and again, not because we don’t care, but because there’s simply nothing left in the tank.
The Parent You Want To Be looks at what really drains your capacity, from invisible mental load to constant interruptions and your own unmet needs, and offers realistic ways to make everyday challenges feel lighter.
Inside the book you’ll find
- A clear way to understand stress and why your capacity varies from day to day
- Practical tools for the moments that most often go wrong: mornings, bedtimes, conflicts
- Ways to make room for yourself without guilt
- Small changes that bring more connection and joy into family life
