In your heart of hearts, do you sometimes long for the days of doing whatever you pleased, thinking your own thoughts in peace, not calming tantrums and wiping up messes, and leaving the house five minutes after the idea strikes? Us too! Today, Michelle Mansfield joins me for a girlfriend-style chat about missing your life before baby. She shares so many relatable insights, and helps us to mindfully process the losses we experience at the same time we are adding our greatest joys to the mix. But we don't stop there! We talk about: Processing the shift from the freedom of single or couple life to mommy life Tapping into your intuition Isolation of new motherhood in our society Finding motherhood mentors who are a few years ahead of you Finding new passions in a new phase Creativity without worrying about the end product Doing things for the sheer enjoyment of doing them Opting out of the hustle Finding mama friends and letting go of friendships that don’t work right now You can find more from Michelle at www.instagram.com/happy_family_project or at http://michellemansfieldhealth.com/. As always, we'd love to hear your thoughts and experiences! Join us on instagram at www.instagram.com/mamasmentalhealthshow or at www.mamasmentalhealth.com.
