Description

In this heartfelt and deeply reflective episode, I sit down with my friend Susan, Mom of 2 and Licensed Social Worker, to explore her journey into motherhood. From discovering her nurturing instincts at a young age to navigating the challenges of pregnancy and postpartum, Susan opens up about her struggles with health conditions, SIBO and endometriosis, the emotional toll of losing her father, and the transformative experience of becoming a mom. She reflects on the complexities of balancing her identity, overcoming mom guilt, extended breastfeeding and marcescence.
Susan’s story is a testament to resilience, self-discovery, and the importance of seeking help during the most vulnerable moments of motherhood
This episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating the ups and downs of parenthood. Tune in to hear 2 New Jersey moms get deep and real about what motherhood is all about. “Pain shared is pain lessened. We don’t have to do this alone.”
