12. Grief & Reclaiming Your Sense of Self in Motherhood w/ Anne & Laura Smollon
Description
In this episode, I chat with two beautiful souls: Mother and daughter Anne and Laura Smollon from What You Never Expect, a platform created to support mamas in every stage of their journey with a strong focus on reclaiming their sense of self. Anne has a master's in social work, is an NLP practitioner, positive psychology coach, and author, as well as a veteran mama of three children! Laura is a graphic designer, digital editor, nutrition coach in training and has a beautiful perspective to share from the child's point of view. In the interview, we dive into how Anne and Laura built a strong bond and the parenting techniques that created a happy, harmonious dynamic in their family. We also discuss Maternal Intrapersonal Anxiety, a term that Anne created to describe the loss of self some mothers experience; we talk about grief in motherhood, how to navigate these feelings and come back to ourselves, and SO much more.
I hope you enjoy this one and receive as much value as I did! I genuinely wish I could have conversed with Laura and Anne forever because they both have a beautifully unique perspective that holds so much value for us mamas.
Enjoy!
