This week we're talking about trauma. How it comes in many forms and from all different directions. It can start in the very beginning and continue throughout your motherhood journey. It's always about everyone and everything else, about baby, family, and everything in between. We have to bring up and talk about the uncomfortable things too. We're so use to covering it up, holding it in, and not bringing it up, that when we even say the word trauma it's awkward and uncomfortable. But we're here to have the uncomfortable conversations. Because what happened to you is real, and it matters and was traumatic. Whether infertility, miscarriage, carrying, delivery, or anything in between. You're allowed to say that it scarred you, you're allowed to still not be ok. You're allowed to talk about it.

How do we filter the good parenting advice from the bad? There's a million different sources from thousands of different people, so how do we filter it? How do we know what to keep and what to toss? In this episode I give my perspective on how we should filter it all....doctors, people, social media, family, etc. My biggest piece of advice, take it all in, but don't take it to heart! Absorb what you need, and leave the rest.

How we speak to ourselves is everything, and sometimes we have to check ourselves on it. Just as fast as we are to accept the negative, intrusive thoughts that have become habit, we have to change the narrative to start accepting the good! Be proud, speak positively, and be mindful of who we let influence us. Nothing is a quick fix, everything is easier said than done; but everything is also doable and possible! Let's talk about it.
