Failing Motherhood

121. Solo Motherhood by Choice, PMDD, + Leaving a Legacy with Emily Mulligan


Listen Later

We cover a lot of topics in this episode, so buckle your seat-belts. Today we get a front row seat to learn from a mom already wise in her years, Emily Mulligan

Emily is a solo mum by choice to two little girls living on the West Coast of Australia.  She walks us through her journey into creating her family, as well as her experience in discovering and managing her PMDD (premenstrual dysphoric disorder, a very severe form of PMS).

Crippled by low self-esteem, depression + anxiety as well as an overwhelming feeling of never feeling good enough, Emily has recently discovered her calling outside of a career, working on the impostor syndrome one day at a time!

IN THIS EPISODE, WE COVERED...

  • The thoughts + experiences that led Emily to donor conception
  • The way she differentiates depression + anxiety from a hormonal disorder
  • How her personal project became a social movement

DON'T MISS-

  • Ways Emily has leaned on friends and community resources to support her and her girls
