From Nanny to Mom: One woman’s story of learning and love through parenthood

My guest, Anja Simmons, is a British trained nanny who assumed her years of experience raising other people’s children had fully prepared her for motherhood. However, soon after giving birth to her first baby, Anja realized she would have to do things differently. Becoming a mom was an opportunity for self-reflection, awareness and healing, where she would learn to parent her children based on what they needed as individuals. Anja openly talks about her own challenges with getting vulnerable and acknowledges how scary it can be to let those walls down, while reminding us how vital it is to do so in order to create healthy connections with our kids.
