006: Motherhood is Lonely & Finding Your Tribe

Pregnancy & motherhood are one of the loneliest experiences out there. Between an ever-changing body, hormones all over the place, the confusion that comes with being a mother, the never-ending "am I doing this right?" thoughts and just overall shit show that is motherhood...it is lonely.

Your partner doesn't understand no matter how many ways you try to explain it. You feel like you're the only one going through these things. You are left crying on the bed just confused about it all. 

I hear you. I was you. And I am you still sometimes. 

But that is exactly why we must find our tribe. We must find and surround ourselves with women who get us. Who get what we're going through. Who we can laugh with. Cry with. Be confused with. 

We must find our tribe & lean on each other. 

Today's episode will dive into the loneliness of pregnancy and motherhood, why we must find our tribe & how we can go about doing that. 

Near the end of the episode I mention how I am always here as someone for you to lean on. If you need a woman in your corner and you're not sure where to turn to...please reach out to me.

You don't have to feel alone. 

We can do this whole motherhood thing together.
