Moms Without Capes

In this episode, I share three ways that I was damaging my relationship with my husband. It takes two to make or break a relationship, but I believe that changes one partner makes can have a profound impact on the relationship itself. The changes I made allowed me to show up as my authentic self, ultimately saving our marriage.

Explore the assumptions and lies that keep us stuck in thinking that our sole purpose is to be a mom. Addressing the lies surrounding motherhood helps us see beyond societal pressures and unrealistic expectations. It lets us challenge stereotypes and rediscover who we are beyond just being a mother. By questioning these ideas, we can find our own identity within motherhood, pursue our personal interests, and bring joy back into our daily lives.

Like anything, awareness is key and so today I am sharing with you the telltale signs of what to look for to determine if you are stuck in supermom mode.
