Our guest today, Erica Djossa CEO and founder of Momwell, just released an amazing book called Releasing the Mother Load that we alllll need to read. 


Erica is a registered psychotherapist specializing in maternal mental health with over a decade of experience. As a mother of three rambunctious young boys, Erica understands first-hand the challenges of motherhood. 


Today we discuss… 


  • The deep end of motherhood and releasing the pressure
  • The invisible mother load that we all carry
  • What it means to be “intensive mothering” and the cost of this role
  • The daily feeling of failure we can feel as busy moms
  • Erica’s break-down turned break-through experience
  • Feeling like a “good mom” only if certain parameters are met
  • The endless filing cabinet of motherhood
  • Being ready to “release and redistribute” the mother load
  • Connecting your identity to tasks in your home
  • The impact of partnerships and relationships in the idea of being a good mom
  • The expert vs. novice dynamic that can happen with your partner
  • Knowing what is high stakes and low stakes for you personally
