TMV: Episode 50 – Seasons Of Motherhood – Part 1 

As with all aspects of life, there are seasons of motherhood. From birth to flying the nest, join us today as we dive into the personal experiences and lessons learned as mothers, with the Mom Village. Kirra introduces the topic with a poignant story about her son growing up and starting to want to venture out on his own apart from the family, something that got her to think about the different seasons all mothers must come to terms with. We hear the crazy realizations that each of the moms had once they brought their newborns home, and some top tips (learned the hard way!) on how you can best handle the chaos that is a newborn. Find out why transitioning from one kid to two, or even three, had such a big effect on each of the moms, and why date nights even when you don’t feel sexy are important for you and your husband. We go deep into the valley of shadows that is post-partum depression, and hear some raw and honest experiences from Kristin, and how she overcame it. For all this, and so much more on the seasons of motherhood, tune in to part one, today.
