E12: Loving Your Kids Without Losing Yourself with Dr. Morgan Cutlip

We had so much fun sitting down with Dr. Morgan Cutlip to talk all things maternal mental health. A highly sought-after relationship expert with a PhD in psychology, Dr. Morgan knows firsthand what it feels like to lose yourself in motherhood and she's determined to help the next generation of mothers. Through her work, she has helped hundreds of thousands of people learn how to form and maintain healthy relationships and has been featured on Good Morning America, Teen Vogue, The New York Times, Women's Health Magazine, and more. Her new book, Love Your Kids Without Losing Yourself, is available now (spoiler alert - it's great!). Morgan is not only relatable and approachable, but she's downright hilarious. As a wife and mom of two, she understands firsthand the challenges many of us encounter as we learn how to mother while not losing every single piece of who we were before we became mothers. In this episode, you will learn: ♥️ How regular check-ins with ourselves help us mamas stay in a healthy mindset ♥️ Why we can control our intention around parenting but we cannot control how our children will interpret our parenting ♥️ How changing our relationship with traditional mothering belief systems can change our experience in motherhood for the better ♥️ What the starvation principle is and why we shouldn't wait until our marriage is starving to schedule that date night We hope you love today's episode as part of our ongoing maternal mental health series.
