Mommy On the Move

TBD

An open, honest, and transparent conversation about how my definition of motherhood has changed over the years.

We're rolling out the welcome mat for Justin Kellough, the Parenting Cheerleader of TikTok fame, ready to bring a refreshing dose of honesty to the discussion of default parenting trials and tribulations. It's about the beautiful chaos of having more children than hands, because we all know having just two kids is really supervising a mini army of fifteen! Justin opens his heart about his partner's postpartum depression experience, emphasizing how crucial it is for us to spot the signs and stand as pillars of support during these trying times. Navigating the challenging waves of being the 'default parent' and 'default provider', we bare our parental souls. As a stay-at-home mom of three boys, I share the juggle and struggle of balancing parenting duties with personal aspirations, and how to keep resentment at bay. Let's dive into the pivotal role of communication, appreciating each other's roles, and wisely utilizing resources to make our journey a tad bit easier. Together with Justin, we delve into the heavy responsibilities that come with being the ‘default provider’ in a family, highlighting the importance of understanding and negotiating these roles in a relationship. Step right in and let's unravel the complexities of parenting together. About Justin - I am passionate about talking candidly about the things parents never get to talk about. What can we do when we hate parenting? How can we be kind to ourselves when facing the incredible pressure of raising tiny humans? How can we be real about the hard parts of this role without wallowing in self-pity and negativity? I want to help you feel less alone in this, while also offering what meager insight I have about how to keep from losing yourself in this all consuming task. Even when you are at your worst, you’re not a bad person, you’re a parent.

The big debate right now is to leave or not to leave. To mask or not to mask. Today, I'm discussing what we chose to do and why. Take a listen.
