The First Year Of Motherhood | The Mental Load and Balancing My Own Intuition with all the "Should's" with Jenna Shearer

The Irish Mummy Podcast | Work Life Balance

We are so excited for this topic because we feel the first year of motherhood is so special, so intense, it goes by so quickly and we become a whole new person in a short period of time. Jenna discusses how she was both ready to be a mother and follow a career in nursing, and the challenges that has posed, but also the satisfaction she has experienced as she just decided to go for being a mom after her first year of working as a nurse.

“ I was honestly terrified of getting pregnant before that and just really didn’t want it to happen. I know I always wanted to be a mom like I said, but it just didn’t feel right, and then at some point it just did, and I just know that God was in the details of that helping me feel ready.” 4:50
