Not Just Moms | meaning, money, mindset & motherhood

Welcome to “Not Just Moms” a podcast for women who are looking to rediscover who they are beyond “mom.” Most podcasts for moms are all about the parenting tips and how to raise a good human. While I do believe this is super important, I wanted to create a sacred space to dive deeper into who we are as individuals. We’ve been so busy with mom life that we’ve neglected ourselves without even realizing it. This podcast is to remind women of who they were before they became “mom” and to empower women to take the time to envision who they want to be in the future. The mental load that we carry as women tends to feel overwhelming at times, which makes it feel challenging to make any time for ourselves. This podcast will discuss actionable strategies and coaching tips to help you manage all the stress and anxiety that naturally comes with the identity shift that happens when you become a mother. This is NOT a parenting podcast. This is all about helping YOU thrive. Let’s reignite our passions and dreams as ambitious women, who just so happen to be moms.
