15: Navigating Postpartum Identity Shifts with Brooke Koeninger

Send us Fan MailWith a baby comes a lot of change, some expected and some not. Join Chelsea as she chats with fellow mama, friend, and podcaster, Brooke Koeninger who shares how she internally struggled with her ambition for a successful career and desire to be present with her family for years. Brooke, now seasoned mama of 3, acknowledges her greatest challenge was her resistance to the change of her priorities. Which to her surprise changed with each child, just as she, too, changed following each birth. With a nod to Core Care Cultivate’s mission, Brooke’s postpartum non-negotiable for all mamas is the investment in reconnecting with themselves. Whether you’re anticipating the end of your maternity leave, struggling to find the balance between meetings and field trips, or re-entering the workforce after decades of holding (arguably) the best yet most challenging job of them all as a SAHM, this conversation is full of insight and inspiration.Disclaimer: The information and stories shared during this episode is intended to offer general guidance and support.
