If you’re becoming a mom for the first time, it’s okay to feel lost. Rest assured that you are not alone.
And while we’re conditioned to believe that once we have children, we should live for them (at the expense of our own identity), I’m here to tell you that you CAN fill multiple roles without feeling guilty about it.
But how do you navigate all the feelings that come with having kids? And how can you be a great mom without losing yourself along the way?
On this episode of Destined to Be, I explain how my image of who I was changed dramatically when I had kids, describing the physical, mental and emotional shifts that come with childbirth and challenging you to be honest about what you’re feeling through the process.
I get real about the disconnection and guilt I felt after having my first baby and share what I did to lift myself out of postpartum depression and get closer to who I was pre-kids.
Listen in for insight on how children change you for the better and learn my YES, AND approach to being both a mom and a successful entrepreneur!
