006: Beating The Bad Mama Blues
In this short episode, I talk about how you can kick the bad mama blues to the curb and start recognizing that you’re a fantastic mother! I acknowledge the difficulty of being a mom and the feelings of sadness, guilt, and shame that come along with it.
Motherhood is not always rainbows and unicorns, and it's normal to feel like a bad mom on tough days. Many women struggle with feeling like they have lost their identity when they become a mom, as they have to take on a title they've never experienced before. I hope this show reminds you that being a mother is hard work, and it is okay to feel overwhelmed. This does not make you a bad mom – it makes you a great mom for caring.
Headphones are recommended if little ones are around.
