One of the biggest ways you can find rest in motherhood is by leaning on your friendships, especially friendship with like minded women (whether they are a mom or not). So this is exactly what I want to talk about on this episode of the podcast – the themes of friendship and motherhood, discussing how relationships can evolve after becoming a mom. I want to share how you can navigate changing friendships, and the loneliness that can so often accompany motherhood. Whether you’re currently feeling isolated, or you feel like you have a really great group of women around you, it’s my hope that this episode will empower you to design more of a life you hope to lead as a mama and a friend.

This episode is small but mighty! It’s something that I’ve wanted to bring to the podcast for a while, but haven’t found the time or place. However, this topic is something that has cropped up a lot recently so I think that’s a sign. So, today I want to talk about the pressure we all feel (or have felt) to do it all as a mom, especially when we see other moms on social media who seem to be so authentic while doing it all. I want to encourage you to focus on your own “area of expertise” in motherhood and let the rest go, let go of the expectation to do it all.

In this episode I want to talk about the intense pressure that we feel as moms to soak up every minute or not miss a minute, like we need to be present 110% of the day. While I think this is beautiful because we know that these early years really are fleeting and they go so fast… Having this really unrealistic expectation of ourselves to soak it all up and not miss a minute, is actually really harming us in motherhood. It puts so much pressure on ourselves to be present for every moment, to enjoy every moment and what can actually end up happening is we end up burnt out, which leads to the opposite of our intentions – we're not enjoying every moment and we're not as present as we’d like to be. So what should we aim for instead? Listen to this episode to find out!

A lot of times the go-to words that are associated with motherhood are chaotic, stressful, lonely, and more. But what if we could flip it around and focus more on the positive connotations of motherhood? I asked my community how they would most like to feel about motherhood, and a couple of the words that came up over and over were “joy” and “effortless”. So today I want to talk about this concept of the hardest job that we're all doing (which is motherhood) and how can that be effortless? And what does a thriving mom look like? This is not meant to discredit anyone’s motherhood experience, but instead speak to a lot of the difficulties that many of us face every single day. But to me, effortlessness isn’t about what something looks like, but more on how my day to day feels – how I show up to and react to the normal parts of motherhood. So listen in to hear how you can feel more grounded, more peaceful, and yes… effortless and thriving.

If you are in a busy season of motherhood, it doesn't mean that you can't be doing nourishing things for yourself, but it does mean that sometimes that we're going to be maybe finding less rest for a period of time. However, I think having these nurturing things within our day that are just a part of our daily routine are so helpful for times when we are busy. Personally, if I didn't have my morning meditation, if I didn't have my journaling, if I didn't have my walks, if I didn't have my protein-filled meals, I would be endlessly burnt out. I have found these things to be so helpful for me that they have become a regular part of my routine and I hope that you can find items like that in your day, too. So that’s what we’re chatting about today – morning habits to set your day up for success. I had a hard time narrowing these down because I think that they're all important (the order mentioned here isn’t important)! I think that we all need to kind of analyze our lives, analyze our days and pick and choose what's going to be most nourishing to ourselves, most realistic, and what's going to work better for us.

One of the biggest ways I’m currently finding rest in motherhood is by outsourcing, and I’m not just talking about the women who support me in my business, but asking my village to help me when possible. Maybe this means my mom taking my dogs to grooming, getting groceries delivered, or asking my dad to pick something up for Lilah while he’s out. This is one way I preserve my energy and protect myself from self sabotage in motherhood. This is exactly what I want to talk about in this episode – the top four ways you may be sabotaging yourself in motherhood and how to move your baseline from surviving to thriving. By the end of this episode you’ll have a few tangible steps to tighten up your energy leaks while giving yourself the permission to enjoy your day to day more (and be a better mother)!

I'm really excited because over the next few weeks, all of my podcast episodes are going to be focused on you and how you can infuse more self-care into your life and how you can THRIVE in motherhood while STILL being an attachment parent who bed shares or contacts naps, who breastfeeds or pumps, or whatever the case may be – you can do all that and still take care of yourself. Specifically, on today’s episode, I want to talk about a concept that I've kind of sprinkled in lightly in the past episodes, but it’s about how you can truly have it all in motherhood because so often we are told that we can’t live an attachment lifestyle and take care of ourselves. This thought process is a bad place to be in because it discredits us. It discredits our experience and it makes us feel like this attachment, respectful, gentle and responsive parenting means you have to forfeit your needs to meet your child’s. But I’m here to tell you that having it all in motherhood does not mean doing it all. Listen into the full episode to find out how!

Have you noticed the lie or the narrative that if we don't sleep train we can't take care of ourselves – we're going to be a slave to our child's needs, or we're never going to have time for ourselves. I'm not just demonizing the sleep training industry for encouraging you to take time for yourself, but what I don't like is the fact that they are making you feel like you have to choose between either taking care of yourself or meeting your children's needs. I'm here to say, you can have both. You can meet your needs, you can take care of yourself, you can thrive in motherhood while still meeting your child's needs, while still being a gentle, respectful, attachment centered parent. You can still co-sleep, you can still contact nap, you can still nurse to sleep, etc. while taking care of yourself and you can't thrive in motherhood. So that's what this episode is about today – how you can meet your child's needs and parent in a way that feels good to you and meet your needs. I’m also sharing the next evolution of Resting in Motherhood and how I’m excited to serve mamas in an even deeper respect in the coming months!

On the day that this episode is published, it will be my daughter’s 5th birthday! So today, in honor of her birthday, I decided I wanted to share the top five lessons that I've learned in motherhood in the last five years of her life. I’m covering the importance of confidence, trusting in our child's unique timeline, the value of having a supportive village, tuning out external noise, and being clear about our values and goals. This episode has really served as my own personal reminder of the growth and confidence that I’ve experienced in my own motherhood journey and I hope it can give you some actionable steps for your own so that you can find more rest and joy in your day to day.

I find that there's a narrative in the sleep training industry that makes you feel like sleep regressions (or progressions as I prefer to call them) are these make or break moments if you don't do something “the right way”. I know a really common one for the four month progression is, “If your baby doesn't learn how to fall asleep independently during the four months sleep progression, they're never going to sleep through the night.” Well, that's a huge lie. So in this episode I want to talk about exactly what a sleep progression is and when you should expect them in the first year – specifically we’ll be talking about the 4 month, 6 month, 8 month, 10 month, and 12 month progressions. I’m sharing what's happening developmentally during each progression and how you can support your baby through them to find more sustainable rest in your home.
