Description

If you’ve been neglecting your own self-care lately, this one is for you! For many of us, especially as busy moms, taking care of ourselves gets thrown to the back burner waaay too often. 

It doesn’t help that society tells us taking care of ourselves is a luxury that we sometimes can’t even afford! Add that to the fact that we as women tend to carry the emotional burdens of everyone around us. There’s pretty much no more room for taking care of you. But it doesn’t have to be this way!! Together, let’s challenge this idea that self-care isn’t important for moms, and navigate how we can create a better balance! This episode is full of real-life stories, practical tips, and the encouragement we all need as women. This is your time to take care of you. Let’s jump in! 


In this Episode of No Guilt Mom, You Will Learn:

The importance of setting boundaries and saying no to unnecessary commitments to avoid rushing through daily tasks and triggering stress.

How emotional labor, often placed on women, can be managed by setting aside dedicated personal time and not taking on the emotional well-being of everyone in the family.

Real-life examples of how addressing and communicating feelings of resentment can lead to healthier relationships.

The impact of not practicing self-care, including emotional exhaustion and decreased patience with loved ones.

Feeling overwhelmed as a mom? Tired of doing everything for your kids and wish… just wish… someone would step in to help you out? Welcome to the No Guilt Mom parenting podcast hosted by author, teacher & parenting coach JoAnn Crohn, M.Ed and co-host parenting coach & educator, Brie Tucker. Every Tuesday, we give you practical advice for moms and positive parenting tips - all without the shame and guilt. We make it fun. We’re from a generation where our moms were supposed to be able to do it all. They went to work and yet were still expected to take care of the house and kids. Our moms put everything extra they had into us kids and we realize there is a better way. The way to give your kids your best is to give yourself the very best - without the mom guilt. How to master positive parenting without doing absolutely everything. That means focusing on what you like to do. If you don’t like playing LEGO’s on the floor with your kids, you don’t have, too. In my parents’ generation, moms gave up everything for their kids and I don’t want to do that. Kids who learn how to be self-sufficient are happier kids and have happier moms. Welcome to the No Guilt Mom podcast!
