My guest today, Holly Murphy, is accomplished in their profession, a devoted parent in love with their kids, a vibrant personality, AND they’re open about how if they knew what they knew NOW back THEN, they would not become a parent. 

You might not agree with Holly, but I know they’re not the only one.  If there’s one thing we are on Failing Motherhood- it’s honest - and that’s why stories like Holly’s have a place here. 

There is nothing more serious than making the commitment to become a parent.  Do you truly know what you’re signing up for?  Can you?

IN THIS EPISODE, WE COVERED...

  • Holly's two different paths into parenthood
  • Why we believe parenting is so much harder than teaching (as teachers) 
  • Ways to find yourself outside the parent role

DON'T MISS-

  • What to do when parenting isn't what you thought it would be
