Why Mothers Can’t Ask for Help and How to Finally Break the Cycle

from Squiggly Motherhood | Reflective Motherhood, Honest Stories & Intentional Parenting · host Nicole

In this episode, I’m joined by Marie-Claire Frederick, founder of Nurture Network, a UK based community designed to help women thrive in their careers and businesses. She is a passionate advocate for community, connection, and women supporting women.We dive into a topic so many mothers struggle with: why it’s so hard to ask for help, even when we’re overwhelmed. Marie-Claire shares her story of growing up as one of 11 children raised by her Windrush-generation grandmother, and how that shaped her views on independence, support, and motherhood today.Join our Community: https://squigglymotherhood.substack.com/Instagram: https://instagram.com/squigglymotherhoodTiktok: https://tiktok.com/@squigglymotherhoodFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/squigglymotherhoodIf you've got thoughts, questions, comments or feedback you can email me at [email protected] you've enjoyed the episode and would like to support me, buy me a coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/squigglymotherhoodHello Fresh Discount: https://www.hellofresh.co.uk/freebox/MzMxMTU1MzY1LTAtNC0xMS1HQg
