Unnatural Motherhood Claire Atenian&Kristen Friend

There is so much on social media today in regards to motherhood. Truly if you have any questions about what your home should look like as a mom, how you should dress, what you should feed your child, what you should teach your child, there is some influencer out there waiting to give you the “how to.”

And while we both have gleaned so much invaluable information from this realm, we want to be careful to not derive any mom guilt or shame from this platform.

That being said we don’t want to perpetuate the issue of creating content in an overly saturated market; however, we hope to extend some clear perspective to carry with you when logging onto instagram with a question about your infant.

Our goal is to help you redirect you to your heart and reaffirm what’s already inside of you. The love you already have for your child.

Hi this is Kristen and Claire, a teacher and a therapist, both moms, entering the oversaturated world of motherhood with a, hopefully unique, and connecting perspective on being a mom in a social media heavy world. Welcome to Unnatural Motherhood Season 1, Episode 1.

Today’s episode is a quick introduction of who we are, how we became friends, and where exactly the idea for the Unnatural Motherhood Podcast came about.
