This weeks episode with Molly Ryden is all about healing ourselves in the chaos of raising little ones…without the guilt. Molly talks about finding our way as mama’s, prioritising our own joy and happiness and the unrealistic expectations of society and ourselves of how we should do, and feel about motherhood.
Molly shares her experience of shifting her perspective and re-writing her own story, through managing anxiety and depression and as a new mama who spent three months in the NICU with her son with no idea how to balance the needs of caring for him with her own. Molly is all about shifting the narrative about mama’s, the guilt they feel, their responsibilities and the view that there’s a certain way we should feel about being a mama (hint; it's not all sunshine and unicorns!). She also talks about the importance of lifting up and encouraging other mama’s rather than judging or shaming them – whoa isn’t that just a breath of fresh air?! Whether you’re a mama or going to be a mama (parent) one day, I know you’ll get a lot out of this open and uplifting conversation…one which I hope we keep having more of.
Molly Ryden is a mindset and empowerment coach specialising in defeating the stigma of mom guilt. She works with clients on organising "life" and finding time to prioritise themselves and do things just for them that don't involve hiding in the bathroom and scrolling social media.
