42 | The Biology of “Mom Brain” & How to Use That to Your Advantage with Rachael Elmore

2024-10-23

Hi, friend! Have you ever felt like you don’t even recognize the person you are now that you are a mom? You knew that new mom life would be full of really big high’s and also really hard challenges, but even though you prepared as much as you could, you’re still asking yourself is it really supposed to be THIS hard? Maybe mom life isn’t what you expected, maybe balancing it all is making you feel a little crazy, or you just don’t know how to actually take care of yourself and find time for self care amidst everything else you are responsible for (including keeping multiple humans alive!).

Hi, friend!

Have you ever felt like you don’t even recognize the person you are now that you are a mom? You knew that new mom life would be full of really big high’s and also really hard challenges, but even though you prepared as much as you could, you’re still asking yourself is it really supposed to be THIS hard?

Maybe mom life isn’t what you expected, maybe balancing it all is making you feel a little crazy, or you just don’t know how to actually take care of yourself and find time for self care amidst everything else you are responsible for (including keeping multiple humans alive!).

If you have struggled with managing stress, responding in anger or just feeling like your mind feels out of control, this episode will be SO insightful. Rachael Elmore has been a licensed Christian therapist for 20+ years and is also an award-winning author. We are diving into the biology of “mommy brain”, how our brains actually change after becoming a mom, and how we can use that for our advantage as we are trying to balance it all. We also talk about postpartum depression and vulnerable personal stories of each of our experiences as well as wisdom on how to know how much is too much as moms balancing multiple roles as mom, wife, and business/career. I pray this episode is encouraging for you! Enjoy!

Hugs!
