Today we are talking to Dr. Morgan Cutlip who is a wife, mom of two, has a PhD in psychology, and is passionate about helping moms understand their relationships with themselves and their partners.

We all know that once we become moms our identities shift both personally and professionally. Dr. Morgan shares what that transition has been like for her and discusses the importance of eventually getting that identity back. She gives us prompts we can ask ourselves that help us reframe whether or not we’ve actually lost ourselves or if it is just a phase that will eventually pass.

Dr. Morgan shares why the mental load seems to fall on the shoulders of moms and how we can talk to our partners about offloading some of it, without having them get defensive. If you struggle to get your partner to take initiative, you’re going to want to tune in to hear what Dr. Morgan suggests to help in this area of your relationship.
