The Dr. Amber Show

So, BALANCE in motherhood…might sound ambitious (and crazy), doesn’t it?

But let me tell you what - there is literally no way that I’m going to stop talking about making balance happen for millennial moms because balance is truly possible. I know there is a HUGE part of society that’s going to tell us otherwise. That balance, as a mom, is far from reality but that idea is OUTDATED. 

And I can say all this because I’ve seen it happen for me and the wonderful mamas that I’ve met on this platform, so who’s to say it’s impossible for you? 

If you’re one of our OG listeners, welcome back and I’m so grateful to have you all along. And if you’re new here, let me introduce what Balanced Working Mama is and WHY this movement is so important for me and a lot of moms who have shared their hard truths. This is a safe space, an empowering movement, and I hope you make yourself feel at home.

Showing up for every mama who needs this platform & community has always been fueled by the WHY of this movement - to help millennial moms FIND balance and CREATE the life they want for themselves by undoing an unrealistic version of motherhood. 

I cannot wait change the narrative with you 🖤

Sometimes, we need to make hard decisions to get to where we need to be, and today, I’m making one.

It’s been 2 wonderful years on this podcast and it’s finally time for me to take a break. It’s a tough decision to make but I know I’ve needed this for a while now. I’m proud of myself for getting this far and I’m truly looking forward to what this pause will bring 🖤

Moms need sex. But everybody acts like it is not as important as it should be.

In this episode with Samia B., owner of Sexual Essentials, we’re breaking the stigma and dispelling some myths about sex & self-pleasure in motherhood. These topics aren’t openly talked about enough but a lot of mamas in the community have shared about their desire for larger conversations about reconnecting with their bodies and creating the sex that works for them. 

And I feel that you might need to hear this, too.

“I lived and breathed everything around my children.” -Ruby Brown-Herring

That line struck the MOST. But guess what?

It’s not too late to focus on YOU.

This episode with Ruby Brown-Herring is incredibly moving. She talks about finding balance at a later time in motherhood, the criticism and shame around changing our narrative, and finally arriving at a place where she no longer feels guilty about prioritizing her needs.

So if you’re wondering if this could be your story too, tune in and take inspiration from this mind-blowing conversation.

What does self-love look like while battling PCOS? 

In this episode with our lovely Raye the Doula, we’ll be talking about Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome or PCOS. But we’re not simply here to DEFINE it because Google has it abundantly ready for us—we’re here to UNDERSTAND what it truly means to love ourselves with PCOS, deeply and intentionally. 

Having been diagnosed with PCOS when I was a teenager, I know it’s tough. Loving myself felt like the most difficult thing to do. But here’s what you should know: you are worthy of love and you are absolutely not alone.

Take a moment for yourself and tune in to this inspiring conversation about self-love through PCOS.
