Episode 204 | So many women become a mother and that's the only way they identify themselves. Who are you? "I'm a mom." Meanwhile, they are also feeling a sense of loss of purpose despite being tremendously purposeful every day, and a loss of identity including grief of no longer being the woman they were before becoming a mom. In today's episode, we dig into this a little further. I also share a list of questions that can help support you through your journey of self-discovery.

Questions to explore:

• Burnout and overwhelm can't exist in "slower and stiller." Are you comfortable with slow and still?
• What was my dream life? Am I living it? If I am, is it what I expected? Why or why not? If I'm not, is it better? Why or why not?
• If all roles and external statuses were stripped away, who am I? If I know, do I like her? If I don't know, who do I want to be?
• What would a confident, happy woman look and act like? Is she working? A mother? Single or married? Do you think you can be a confident, happy woman in your life? Why or why not?
• How do you actually want to FEEL in your life?
• What would your ideal day to day look like? Is you real day to day anywhere close? List the reasons and thoughts that come up when comparing the two.

Please share this episode with anyone you feel could benefit and also those who are the supporters of individuals with anxiety. Sharing and normalizing this information and these experiences is so important.
