Description

In this fourth episode of our special 8-episode Balanced Madrehood series, I touch on another crucial challenge modern Latina moms face: reconnecting with who they are outside of motherhood.

When we become moms, our identity shifts almost overnight. Between sleep deprivation and the mental load of running a household, it's easy to lose touch with the woman you were before - the parts that had nothing to do with taking care of others. I share my personal experience of going months without engaging in activities that once defined me, like running or even reading a book uninterrupted.

In This Episode, You'll Hear:

• Why reconnecting with your passions isn't just about having fun, it's essential for your wellbeing and identity
• The common barriers that keep us from pursuing our interests
• Practical strategies for reintroducing your passions into your busy life as a mom
• How rediscovering yourself actually benefits your family by making you a more present, patient, and joyful mami

Remember, madrehood isn't meant to be an all-consuming identity that erases everything else about who you are. It's meant to be integrated into your full, complex, multifaceted life.
