Today, you're going to learn all about the superwoman complex, what it is and how to know if you're experiencing it. This is important because many of us will go through the superwoman complex at some point in our lives and many of us are living with it RIGHT NOW!

We think that feeling overwhelmed, feeling exhausted, and not understanding how everybody else is doing it, is just a normal part of the motherhood process. I'm here to tell you that it's NOT, and it doesn't have to be that way.

So, what is the superwoman complex? The superwoman complex is the belief that we need to do it ALL as mothers. We need to show up perfectly and fully, at all times, and in every role.

I will cover 4 major points that you need to know in order to understand the superwoman complex:

1. We are living within "the rigged system" which sets us up for failure.

2. We don't account for our needs.

3. We don't accept or understand the process that we're in as mothers.

4. We don't process our emotions and instead we "buffer" them away.

Stay tuned for next week, Part 2, where I walk you step-by-step through the process I take my clients through in order to CURE the superwoman complex.

In today's episode, I'm going to teach you why you should be striving for "emotional wholeness" instead of happiness. I'm really excited to share the concept of "emotional wholeness" that I've created which has helped me and my clients to attain a deep sense of inner peace and contentment. I start with a beautiful quote by Dr. Elizabeth Kubler Ross. Then, I cover three main points:

1. Emotional wholeness is about accepting all of your emotions and where you are right now in your "emotional season."

2. There are two main types of emotions we experience: what we perceive as desirable and what we perceive as undesirable. There is a richness of emotion for a reason.

3. There are "emotional seasons" in life that mimic the physical seasons we experience with the weather.

In addition, I share exciting NEWS. Stay tuned to the end (and if you want a sneak peak, go to https://coachbayla.com/awakentoyou to find out what I have in store for you!)

In today's episode of the podcast, I'm going to teach you how to remain present, even in highly stressful situations, by managing your emotional temperature. I'm going to explain what your emotional temperature is and why you'll want to remain present in a highly stressful situation (there are BIG benefits!). Then, I'm going to walk you step-by-step through a real life example that happened to me last week, when I was in the hospital with one of my kids who had a nasty stomach virus, and I was in a high stress situation. Whether you're in a high stress situation right now, or it's just a nagging thought that won't let you go, this can help.

I'm going to teach you about what happens in the brain with each baby we bring into the world. We've learned that not only do our bodies prepare for our babies, but our brains also do! We will cover the topic of mommy brain and what that actually means. We will cover the difference between the brain of a biological mom and an adoptive mom (which isn't much, as you'll see). We'll also cover what it means to be in this process and how long it lasts (longer than you think!).

In today's episode, I'm going to be teaching you how to prepare for the holidays with ease, simplicity, and joy, rather than pressure, panic, and stress. It will help you whether you're preparing for Shabbos on a weekly basis or you're preparing for Thanksgiving this week. You don't want to miss this lovely bonus! Let's get started!

Are you head over heels in love with your baby, and yet you don't quite feel like yourself anymore? You're overwhelmed, overworked, and simply exhausted. You understand on an intellectual level that motherhood changes you, but you don't quite know how to get back to feeling like yourself. In today's episode of the podcast I'm going to teach you how to feel like yourself again and tell you a story about my experience in motherhood.

*In this episode I talk about "not feeling like yourself" in a space where you don't have PPD. If you suspect that you might have PPD, please seek help from a licensed mental health counselor.
