    • Parenting

Molly Millwood joins the podcast today as our first author in our first ever book club. If you have read her incredible book To Have and To Hold: Motherhood, Marriage, and the Modern Dilemma...you know how powerful her message is. We both consider this a must read book for every new mama as we found it to be a life changing book. It is both freeing and validating for women in the throes of one of life’s biggest transitions: motherhood.


Special takeaways: 
Resentment for our partners are generally formed around unrealistic expectations The goal of being a “good enough” motherThe inequities between men and women when it comes to parenting are realGiving voice around fear, depletion, longing and hunger will win over passive aggressive communication every timeA man’s ability to accept influence from their partner is directly related to marital stabilitySeeking professional therapy should be normalized and we could all benefit from it
