Description
Creating a community when you don't have one readily available is an empowering and transformative journey. You are not alone in your desire for support and connection during the postpartum period. Studies show that being part of a supportive community contributes to increased well-being and self-confidence in postpartum mothers. We also know that not all support is created equal. The type of support that enhances your quality of life validates your experiences, provides emotional support, and shares resources. If you don't have that type of support readily available to you, it's essential to get creative in surrounding yourself with that type of community. In this episode, we're sharing: How you can get started connecting with like-minded people and building a community around shared interests. Ways you can coordinate with other moms to share responsibilities and connect emotionally at the same time. The importance of asking for support and the impact community has on breaking cycles of generational trauma. I hope more than anything that this episode empowers you to reach out, connect with other mamas, share your experiences, and seek the support that is essential for your well-being. Share this with your mama friends so they know they aren't alone.
