Description

The Perfect Mom… LOL!!!!

There is a LOT of pressure on Moms today. From the Insta-perfect stay at home Moms who make raising their seven children and making their sourdough loaf look easy breezy to the working Mamas who are hustling at all hours, we’ve had a whole lot of expectations added to our already full plates since the housewife days of the 1950s. Our guest, Erica Djossa, is here today to talk about the mental load of motherhood and the importance of maternal mental health. She’s the founder and CEO of Momwell, host of the Momwell podcast, and author of Releasing the Mother Load. She helps support mothers in their transition to parenthood and her new book will be released on April 9th. Hit that play button if you’re ready to be seen while we’re heard and engage in a little self reflection too!

In this episode of the No Guilt Mom podcast you’ll learn:

Why prioritizing maternal mental health, especially as you transition into all stages of parenthood, is so important

How to reclaim joy in your role as a Mom

The role gender norms and expectations of the past can play in how tasks are delegated in families and how to even it out - for everyone’s health!

That being a good Mom takes a lot of different forms - you’re doing amazing!

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!
