Mornings for Mamas Podcast

In this episode, I talk with Mia Hemstad, a wife, mom of 2 kids, mental health advocate, and social justice activist. Mia has been creating content online since 2017 to share her healing journey of overcoming trauma and learning to love herself. She has been diagnosed with PTSD and depression, and she shows people that you can live an amazing life with mental illness. Mia's mission and purpose as an entrepreneur is to help women unshackle themselves from the beliefs that being a loving woman requires that we stop loving ourselves. Mia and I talk about self love & acceptance, the tools she's learned over the years to support her healing & growth, taking responsibility for our self care, and what it means to thrive in motherhood.  Her favorite quote is "Do the best you can with the time and energy you have!" Tune in for this powerful and authentic conversation between two passionate mamas!Links:

My journey into motherhood was intense, beautiful & surprising…

I share my story here with the hopes that you might feel less alone and understand a little more about the Mornings for Mamas movement and why I'm so passionate about empowering mamas like you to reclaim your self worth & intentionally create space & time for your needs, dreams and desires. I felt trapped, completely overwhelmed and very isolated in early motherhood. I was highly self-critical and judged every decision & movement that I made… I put FAR too high of expectations on how I was supposed to feel, wondering if this is how it was always going to be, which made me ask the super scary question…. "Did I make the right decision in choosing to become a mama?"  I frequently wondered "What is wrong with me?! Why can't I figure this out?".In this episode, I share about my experience with Postpartum Depression & Anxiety, Postpartum Rage and the choices I made to reclaim my self worth and create a life that I love!
