As a society, we still don’t treat mental health as seriously as we do other physical ailments. And honestly? As a mom, it’s so easy to put off your personal needs because it often feels like one more thing to do. Add in feeling overwhelmed and over scheduled, the thought of finding a therapist you click with, digging in to the things that are causing this anxiety in the first place? It’s very real WORK!

My guest today is a mother of 3 who opens up about her own mental health journey. She shares how a stressful pregnancy with her first child was where her own anxiety started to grow. It grew again with an unexpected birth outcome and then, again with a personal health scare this fall. Listen in to hear Hubbell talk about how she recognized she needed to seek help, how her life as a mom has shifted and how she’s used her experience to recognize and help her eldest daughter work through her own anxiety.
