209: Friendship Series - Growing Together Through Friendship and Motherhood with Jess Nash


Listen Later

In this episode, I sit down with one of my closest friends, Jess Nash, to discuss friendship, motherhood, and how the two intersect. We talk about our friendship “breakup” and how we reconnected after several years of not staying in touch, how having children has bonded us even further, and how essential it is for mothers not to judge each other for their parenting choices. We also discuss why it’s so important for mothers to find a postpartum community and we answer listener questions on preparing for motherhood, making space for conversation not centered around our children, and supporting a friend who is struggling with infertility or has miscarried.


Key Takeaway / Points:

  • On our friendship “breakup” and how we reconnected
  • How having children bonded us further
  • On friends disagreeing with how they mother their children
  • On the importance of mothers not judging each other
  • On finding community during postpartum
  • Answering listener questions on friendship and motherhood, including:
  • Why friends “go quiet” after they have children
  • On preparing for the identity shift that comes with motherhood
  • On celebrating each others’ wins in friendships
  • On making space for conversation not centered around children
  • On supporting a friend who is struggling with infertility or has miscarried
