⚠️ This episode contains discussions about infertility, postpartum struggles, and mental health challenges, including feelings of inadequacy and distress. Listener discretion is advised.
In this episode, I’m joined by the amazing Carlie Schofield, who opens up about her raw and honest journey through Motherhood. From navigating infertility and PCOS to the challenges of postpartum recovery, Carlie shares her struggles with the mental load, feeding guilt, and the overwhelming identity shift that comes with becoming a Mum.
We dive into the messy and beautiful realities of parenting, returning to work while battling Mum guilt, and how having a second child helped her let go of perfectionism. Carlie’s vulnerability and insights are a reminder that it’s okay to feel all the emotions that come with this life-changing transition.
Whether you're a new Mum, a seasoned parent, or somewhere in between, this episode will resonate with anyone navigating the highs and lows of Motherhood.
