Redefining What It Means to be a Mom

You are more than just "a mom" or "a wife".

It has become way too easy for women to solely define themselves by labels given once they get married and/or have kids. It's 2022 for gosh sakes, what better time to start pushing past these societal norms of what being "a wife" or "a mom" means and redefine ourselves according to what actually lights our soul on fire.

If you've ever felt like you lost yourself to keep up with how everyone else expects you to act, you're going to want to listen in to today's episode with special guest, Jess Copacia.

Jess is a wife, mother, and pediatric nurse practitioner. After years of checking off all the "life boxes" instead of feeling happy, she found herself overwhelmed, exhausted, anxious, resentful, and more unhappy than ever before. Spending years worried about following the expected path and putting everyone else's needs before her own, she lost who she was and what she wanted out of life. It was this ultimate low, she decided to do the hard work, and start questioning the labels that had held her back for so long. Through that journey, came the realization of the power of living a life free of expectations and one aligned with the soul and ignited a passion to empower other women to do the same. In 2020, she started her coaching business and became the host of the 'Mom Guilt Is BS' Podcast.
