Breaking up with Super-mum

from MamaThrive · host Kendra Blake

In today’s episode, Kendra is joined by Dr Whitney Casares, a maternal child health expert, a paediatrician and a mom of two. Dr Whitney is passionate about supporting mama’s to stop doing it all, and start doing what matters, and this episode is packed full with her wisdom and insight.  In our conversation together we look at practical ways mama’s can break the cycle of burnout in parenting (and therefore break up with the idea of Super-Mum), and shift their focus to their own health and wellbeing, so they can create a sense of balance that fosters greater joy in every area of their lives.  I love Dr Whitney’s honest and realistic approach to establishing balance within motherhood and hope that today’s episode will inspire you to shift gears so that you can better support your own wellbeing as a mama.  If you like what you have heard, please share this episode far and wide - all mama’s deserve to feel good in this role as a mother and the more we can spread the word, the bigger this change movement will become!  As always, we continue this conversation over on Instagram. Come join us there.  Resources:  Website Instagram  About Dr Whitney:  Dr. Whitney is a private practice pediatrician, a two-time American Academy of Pediatrics Author & Spokesperson, and a mom to two young girls in Portland, Oregon.
