Summary

When Julia found out she was pregnant, she was bombarded with voices in her head around what a mother was supposed to be. In this episode, Julia turns to Laurel, who is on her own inspiring journey of reckoning with those voices and creating the motherhood that is true to her. Laurel never wanted to be a parent growing up because she couldn’t imagine herself fitting into the narrow frame of heteronormative parenting. But along her windy path toward becoming a mother, she discovers there is so much more possible in who we can become, how we love, and how we create family. Join us as we reckon with who we are as mothers in the face of societal expectations and narrow definitions, and what is possible when we do.

    Authors: Thinking Focus

    Description: We believe that people and teams underperform. Not because they want to, not because they mean to but because they can't get out of their own way. This may not be down to them; it could be the culture or the environment. Our experiences shape our mindsets and habits, often causing us to get stuck.Changing behaviour requires a change in mindset. Join us on this journey as we discuss everything from 'how we think' to techniques and shortcuts to help us shape our thoughts to help us achieve our goals. We will be asking a range of questions about how the way that we think shapes our ability to change, be more productive and lead effectively.
