Episode 69: How to Reconnect with Yourself and Your Partner After Kids With Special Guest Kim Torrence, LCSW-C
Motherhood is overwhelming enough—so when your relationship feels out of sync too, it can feel like you're crumbling under the weight of it all. In this episode of the Love After Kids series, I sit down with somatic therapist Kim Torrence to talk about what happens when you're trying to be a great mom and a great partner—and losing parts of yourself in the process.
In this conversation, we explore what balance really means, how burnout sneaks into our relationships, and how the path to deeper connection often starts with reconnecting with ourselves.
✨ Here’s what we unpack:
- What “balance” actually looks and feels like—and why it’s different for every mom.
- How to tell when you’re out of alignment in your relationship.
- Tools to build self-awareness and practice nervous system regulation.
- Why getting curious about your anxiety can create more peace (and even better sleep!).
- How tending to your inner world leads to more connection in your partnership.
This one’s a deep exhale for the moms carrying it all. 💛
