Mothers Not Martyrs | How to embrace motherhood without losing yourself

Jess shares her personal story of navigating the identity shift from professional life into motherhood. We discuss ways women lose themselves in motherhood, why we put ourselves last and how we can rediscover a sense of self. We talk about why pursuing your own passions actually makes you a better mom and how to value yourself as a PERSON who is also a mother.

Thank you all for listening to Season 2. We value every single one of you so much. We're going to take a break for a few weeks and see you again soon!
