In this episode, I’m joined by Jane from Newtown Wellness, a licensed professional counselor and perinatal mental health expert. We dive deep into the emotional, mental, and spiritual transformation that happens when a woman becomes a mother and why this sacred season deserves more support than our culture often provides.
Together, we explore:
The invisible load of motherhood and how to name it
Why setting boundaries isn’t selfish, it’s essential
How to actually ask for help (and receive it)
The impact of unresolved trauma on the postpartum experience
What healthy support can look like, even when it’s not perfect
Encouragement for new moms who feel like they're drowning
Whether you’re pregnant, postpartum, or supporting a mom in your life, this conversation is an honest, hope-filled reminder that you’re not alone and you’re not doing it wrong!
