05 Linda Fruits: Postpartum Anxiety, Second Baby Magic, and Normalizing Motherhood

Today I’m joined by Linda Fruits, creator of the very popular blog and Instagram account Fruits of Motherhood and the Fruits of Motherhood podcast. Linda is also a creative entrepreneur with an Etsy shop and a graphic design business. Linda’s mission is to normalize motherhood and to help moms feel less alone. She shares daily messages of encouragement and validation but always does so with a dash of comedic relief and total honesty. We talk about our experiences with postpartum anxiety as first time mothers and how motherhood feels so different the second time around. We talk about growing her online community, the ups, the downs, and all that she’s learned. 

 

"The pressure to be this perfect mom is so overwhelming. I felt it. I still feel it."

- Linda Fruits
