Balanced Bites: Talk on Food, Fitness, & Life with Liz Wolfe

#480: Pediatrician Dr. Carissa Stanton, author of Motherhood Makeover: A Pediatrician’s Guide to Reclaiming an Authentic Mothering Journey stops by the new studio to talk the challenges facing moms: from dysfunctional “villages” to “mom guilt” to how practitioners and healthcare providers themselves add to the stress placed on moms today. The solutions? They’re not what we might think. Listen in to feel seen, be encouraged, get regulated, and most importantly, learn to say “f*ck it” when you need to. This isn’t your average parenting book—in fact, it’s not a parenting book at all!
