Episode 77: What Few People Tell You About Motherhood

Pregnancy, postpartum, and motherhood in general are significant transformational seasons, where the changes happen fast and extremely noticeably. There is a shift, or loss of what was, with a significant gain of what is becoming. It's amazing, and it's hard. It's exciting and it's ok to miss what used to be. It's BOTH. It's ok to have complicated feelings over BOTH the gratitude and the complexity.
