Description

A few of you have asked me to do an episode specifically on the struggles of being a stay at home mom (SAHM).  I’m excited to talk about this, cause I’ll be honest… My life’s dream was to be a stay at home mom and 4 months of that “dream” damn near killed me.  I cried uncle and quit that gig (and hired a nanny) when Vinnie was still tiny.  So, I have the UTMOST respect for those of you who stay home with your babies (of any age - even school age)! I posted on Facebook a couple weeks ago and asked for SAHMs to share their biggest struggles and I found the responses FASCINATING.  First of all, it was really interesting to get a sneak peek into your lives.  But the most fascinating part???  A lot of your struggles are so similar to working moms’ struggles.  And here we all are thinking that working moms and stay at home moms have so little in common and can’t possibly “get” the other sides perspective.  Not so. Regardless if you’re a SAHM or working mom or work from home mom, I think you’ll learn something from this episode.  Big thanks to everyone who has reached out to me about this topic and contributed your stories and struggles.  So much love for you.  Links mentioned: Get your ticket to Shameless Mom Con Thank you to our sponsors: ButcherBox - Get the Ultimate Breakfast Bundle - that’s 2 packages of Bacon and 2 lbs. of Breakfast Sausage for FREE in your first box PLUS $20 off your first box, go to Butcher Box OR enter promo code SHAMELESS.
