FIM 72: Motherhood - the SCARIEST hood, with Courtney Hartt


Listen Later

This week host Amanda Haro, burnout & confidence coach for moms, is joined by Courtney Hartt, creator of The Scariest Hood, an online resource for parents to help make parenting a little less scary.

Because, let's be real--this motherhood gig can be downright terrifying at times.

From waking up to kids staring at us while we sleep, to being the one in charge when the entire family gets a stomach bug at the same time, to figuring out who we are outside of our kids.

They talk about:

  • What it’s like being a young mom (Courtney having her first at 19 & Amanda at 22)
  • Going back to school as a mom of 3
  • How being a stay at home mom is not for everyone and that’s ok
    • How to get out of mom guilt

    • The importance of moms having a personal identity outside of motherhood

    • Tips for how to make co-parenting after divorce peaceful

    • Why being single is actually the shit
