The Postpartum Coach Podcast

Before life, we make commitments to do and be certain things. We call these "Soul Contracts", and if you are not on the path to live yours, life could feel hard, heavy, unfulfilling, or you can feel anxious, depressive and not yourself. Our body and Higher Self (soul consciousness) will send these types of issues our way to help us put our attention to getting back on track with the life we wanted to live here on Earth. Tune in to hear more about how these can be at play postpartum, including the lineage (or family line) you come from and past lives as well. This will hopefully help you figure out the help you need postpartum and beyond to be happy, thriving and vivacious again, mamma! Want help implementing and making change?

Unconditional love: what is it actually? Did we receive it growing up, or was that conditional love? And what does that matter? How does it impact our bodies, minds, psyche, confidence and self-worth if we grew up in a setting where we received love and praise that was *conditional* upon others' opinions, ideas of success and goodness, or demands? Learn more about this, and be more clear on the pain you could be carrying from the conditional love of your family of origin in today's episode of the Postpartum Coach Podcast.

It can be a battle to get your kiddos to want to help with household stuff. Whether you're preparing to have kids who help with chores, or you have a house full of kids that aren't pitching in how you'd like, this episode will take you deep into the unfair, unequal biases you may have mentally digested over the years. Lori Sugarman-Li tackles real-family issues in a fun and relatable manner, catalyzing important conversations, fostering bonding and unity, and setting the stage for children to shine. No stranger to media, Lori's expertise has been featured on TODAY, where she discussed strategies for involving children in household management, she contributed an article to The New York Times exploring the implications of shared values in family agreements, and she shared her insights on empowering children through task alignment with their strengths in an interview on NPR's All Things Considered.   I believe this conversation will resonate deeply with your audience, offering unique insights and practical tips to reduce stress and dread around housework by sharing the load, inspiring ownership and pride among children, and ultimately leading to increased joy, rest and, family time together.  Private coaching consultation: https://www.lizzielangston.com/consult Lori Sugarman-Li's website and socials: ourhomeourpride.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ourhomeourpride/ Twitter Linkedin If you love the podcast, you'll love these! my popular free mini course for postpartum women here: https://www.lizzielangston.com/get-out-of-the-postpartum-landing-page Download a free Womb Healing ceremony here: https://www.lizzielangston.com/womb-ceremony-landing-page Free Postpartum Meditation to Calm and Trust your Body Again: https://www.lizzielangston.com/meditation Nuy my $27 course, the Emotional Toolkit for A Postpartum Mom: https://www.lizzielangston.com/class Buy my full online course, Postpartum Freedom: https://www.lizzielangston.com/course JOIN MY POSTPARTUM FREEDOM COMMUNITY: https://www.lizzielangston.com/community SEE ALL OFFERS AT LIZZIELANGSTON.COM/WORKWITHME Learn more about your ad choices.

Did you know there is a space between all your thoughts and feelings, and YOU? The part of you that can notice, witness all the thinking and such, but just be with it? Not engage, just observe? I wish I had known that, and in this letter to myself (which is to you, too!) I go into details of what I mean/paint the picture. I hope it helps open your mind to a way of being during postpartum that is different, and possibly what you need, or at the least: helpful. xo's Private coaching consultation: https://www.lizzielangston.com/consult Have you downloaded my free resources?

Our emotions can get pretty intense postpartum, and yet it's a time when we want to be the most present to soak in all of the cuddles and enjoy this quick time. So how do we cope? In this episode, I'll teach you what you need to know and do to be able to calm any emotion in the moment. You'll learn: what most women try to do that doesn't work and actually allows their intense emotions to grow instead of be calmed how to communicate with your body in a way your body will understand, even when it's worked up what you can say to your body to help it trust you and calm down for you how to stop being afraid of or mistrusting of your emotions in the moment, and how to actually be the one to nurture the worked-up parts of yourself.

Do you feel scared of and possibly even traumatized by your anxiety? I get this. So much of the suffering postpartum women are experiencing is less about the sensations of the anxiety, and more about how terrified we are about it. And how hard we try NOT to feel it. And finally... how much we don't understand Anxiety's higher purpose. Join me in today's podcast episode as we delve into and discover: Why anxiety has been happening (some possible root causes) What anxiety really wants to say to you (it has a message) Who profits from the terrified fear of this thing our body is producing? How to actually understand how to ineract with postpartum (or just everyday) anxiety. This episode feels revolutionary!!

You are responsible for your actions, and you can take responsibility of your thoughts, but I don't believe that we are always the conscious creators of our thoughts. While intrusive thoughts can be serious in the sense that they are communicating you have needs desperate to be met and may need more sleep and/or support, I don't believe that a scary thought makes you a bad person.

The Sacred Feminine is ritualizing the monotonous and finding meaning in nature. It is focusing not just on productivity and efficiency, but also on 'being', slowing down, and rest. Emotional and spiritual intuitiveness, & valuing the journey, not just the destination. During historical times of masculine-valuing rule, this way of being with our bodies and with nature was lost, but it's coming back. Let's dive into history and explore the way that our collective loss of the Sacred Feminine, both in culture and in our collective psyche, impacts who we are and how we recover as women who are birthing and recovering postpartum.
