Why being a mum is a part of your identity, but not all of it with personal brand specialist Emma Lovell

I think everyone woman goes through an identity shift when we become a mother. We think we know ourselves, our values, and have an idea of how we want to live our lives. But when the baby comes along it really changes our perspectives. Not only how others perceive us, but also how we perceive ourselves.    Today guest is Personal Branding Specialist & owner of Lovelly Communications - Emma Lovell. I really enjoyed speaking with Emma because she was so generous, open, and honest with her personal experiences of the identity shift she has experienced in becoming a mum. Her priorities have changed and she is now unequivocal on her boundaries between work and home life, especially having her own business. One thing that Emma speaks so honestly about is that she is a mum, this is a part of her, but not all of her.    In this episode we talk about:  Motherhood identity shift  Post natal depression experienced by fathers  Boundary setting  Running your own business before children Strategies to help you navigate the identity shift as a mum  And so much more Emma and I have an exciting challenge for you at the end of the episode. Be sure to listen to the end and tag us both.  This episode focuses on motherhood's impact on your identity and personal brand, but with many tangents that give you lots of relatable experiences and strategies. It was great fun having this chat with Emma.    Join the Working Mumma Village membership today to get support in the transition from maternity leave to working mum.  Connect with Emma Lovell Website Instagram @lovellycomms LinkedIn   Connect with Working Mumma and Carina O'Brien Instagram: @workingmummacommunity Website: www.workingmumma.com.au LinkedIn - Working Mumma or Carina O'Brien
