Welcome to Being a Parent is Hard! In this episode, we have a particularly honest talk about the emotional stressors experienced by new mothers. We focus on the issues underlying unspoken questions such as, "Where did the old me go and how do I get myself back?" Or, "Am I a horrible person for sometimes hating my kid?" We share personal stories, including our own experiences of exhaustion, guilt, rage, and more guilt, as mothers of babies and young kids. And we offer our clinical guidance about how to manage these conflicting, upsetting, and very human feelings. We hope you can join us us!
