Mom rage. It happens to most of us at one point or another and can feel debilitating and shameful. But you are not a bad mom. Let me repeat that… you are NOT a bad mom, you are simply a mom that is overworked and not getting your needs met.Like an iceberg, there is much more below the surface. In order to feel better as mothers, we need to get to the root of the issue instead of just focusing on the outward action.In this week’s episode, we break down where mom rage comes from and what we can do as parents to prevent it in the first place. You got this mama, you deserve to feel like yourself once again.More from DR. REAM hereLet’s connect!HERself PATREONHERSELF WEBSITEHERSELF INSTAGRAMMEET AMY MEET ABBYNEW Partner!

Dr. Ashurina Ream (known as @psychedmommy everywhere) is back on the podcast today. Dr. Ream is a psychologist who is certified in perinatal mental health. We covered SO many important topics in this interview. We spent the first half of the podcast talking about body image- diving into specifics about why many women struggle with this and what you can do to start improving yours. Before focusing on perinatal mental health- Dr. Ream specialized in helping people with eating disorders- so she brought a ton of valuable insight into the conversation. We also cover miscarriage- something that SO many women go through, but a topic that isn't talked about often. Lastly, we finish up with the overwhelm of motherhood and what you can do about it. Hope you enjoy this episode- it was an incredible and important conversation. MEET DR.

Elicia Shepard joins the podcast again and brings a real take on her life as a stay-at-home mama. Her vulnerability with topics like isolation in the pandemic, sex and intimacy struggles in the early baby years, and finding purpose outside of motherhood were inspiring. This episode helps to build a bridge between mothers who work outside of the home and those who stay home with their children and we hope to continue to bridge this gap through conversations like this one.Thank you Elicia for your words and we hope you all enjoy the episode!MEET ELICIALet’s connect!HERself PATREONHERSELF INSTAGRAMMEET AMY MEET ABBYGoodr Sunglasses 15% off with code HERSELFBetterHelp Counselling 10% Discount

Chasity from @momfully.you joins us on the podcast today. We dove into SO many important mom conversations. Chasity calls the link between self-care and mom guilt a "toxic relationship" and helps us understand why we need to make them break up and make sure we are caring for ourselves. She outlined what it looks like to operate from your values and achieve a "you do you" mentality. We dove into anxiety and how you can start to take anxiety's coat off. Many of the things covered are what mamas need to hear right now were covered and Chasity's information and delivery are like a big heart hug.

We live in a culture that loves positivity- people tend to value, respect, and admire it. But what happens if we're too positive? It can become toxic.If we start to suppress or talk ourselves out of any negative emotion we come across- we aren't allowing ourselves the full human experience. Today, we dive into a lot of details about toxic positivity- what it is and why it can be a problem. We chat about the ways that we're working through it and what has helped us on that journey.Let’s connect!HERself PATREONHERSELF INSTAGRAMMEET AMY MEET ABBYBetterHelp Counselling 10% Discount
