Parenting is an extreme sport and the adventure of a lifetime. Are you game? Will you say yes when the time comes? Or have you already? For the Yes Girls, it's about time—at least for one of them.

Claire Baker was indeed baking a human being by the time this Yesticle was due for recording, so it made perfect sense to bring in a friend of the podcast to participate in this huge conversation and offer some much-needed advice for a first-time Yes Girl boy-mom.

So, joining the girls in the studio is a Yes Girl in her own right, founder of Hadithi Collective, producer and host of Mama Tales Podcast (Instagram: @mamatales), and (as the girls like to call her) a certified "motherhood expert."

Sally Kuria (Instagram: @sallymugure) is here to offer her insights and wisdom on what motherhood means/has meant for her, what it means to be a parent, how to manage stress as a new mom, how she finds time for self-care and personal interests as a busy mom, mom guilt, what it is, and how to overcome it, what it meant to return to work after maternity leave, how to involve fathers, what present fatherhood means, how to interact with kids (whether yours or not), and how to balance motherhood and relationships.

The parenthood journey is a beautiful, transformative experience, but it also comes with challenges and unexpected turns. Listen in to discover what this can mean for you now or in the future when you say "yes" to being intentional about it.
