It’s no secret that moms are under a lot of pressure these days. The recent pandemic has just made matters more visible. One thing we see over and over is this idea of super mom and how moms can be expected to do it all, be amazing, and look great doing it.
On this episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show, I’m chatting with Dr. Julie Hanks about the cost of idealizing motherhood and what it means for our homes. If you’ve ever felt like you weren't enough or that you were doing a bad job, tune in because Dr. Hanks has some amazing advice to share.
