Hi Mama,

Wanna hear a joke? Maternity leave in the US. This topic fires me up like no other so today I wanted to express my feelings on the topic and outline how the lack of a federal maternity leave policy in the US has left me scrambling to figure out how to be the mother I want to be and still be "productive" in this society.

It's a huge struggle and I get real and raw with you (of course) about my issues with the current lack of policy.

In this episode I talk about...

1. How the currently "maternity leave" (of lack thereof) is disrespectful to women in the US (I say women because I'm sure there are some woman who are choosing not to become mothers because of this!)

2. My current situation and how the current maternity leave structure is affecting my family planning choices.

3. More about the hustle of motherhood

4. My daily schedule as a SAHM who hustles hard!

I hope that you found this episode interesting. I could honestly go on about this topic forever because there's so much to unpack. I really hope things will change soon for women in the US.

Thanks for listening!

Stay safe and well, mama.

Mother of Fawn - 9. My Mother-In-Law Moved In With Us! (Story Time)
play

06/06/21 • 27 min

Hi Mama,

Today I'm doing something a little different, just a quick story time! :) This week my mother-in-law came from Vietnam to the United States to live with us! So many people think I'm insane to be okay with having her move in full time, so I wanted to tell my story so that you can understand why I'm trilled that she's here! It's been a long time coming and I feel like I finally have my "village" after 16 months of raising Mia with my husband and no outside help!

Catch me on Instagram @motheroffawn or shoot me an email to [email protected] if you want to get in touch!

Stay safe and well, Mama!

Hey mama,

In this episode I talk you through my experience of finally building a healthy lifestyle as a new mom. Honestly, being as busy as I am with a VERY ACTIVE 16-month old, I felt like it would be impossible to have the time to spend on myself. I was wrong! It just takes a little extra planning but it's 100% do-able!

In this episode I cover:

1. Why I decided to make a change

2. What healthy eating looks like to me

3. Tips on how to start planning your own healthy meal plan

4. My experience with sweets and treats *spoiler, I still eat them*

5. Using the "minimum" mindset when creating a fitness routine

6. My keys for fitness: enjoyability, flexibility, realistic, and consistent

In my next episode I plan to dive into the ways that I have started taking care of my mental health and give you an actionable plan on how you can start making small changes in order to get to a better headspace, even on the most stressful days. Can't wait to share it with you!

If you have questions, or just want to chat, find me on Instagram @motheroffawn or you can send an email to [email protected].

Stay safe and well, mama!

In this episode I cover...

1. How I decided to be a SAHM

Hi Mama,

After sharing a pandemic related episode I got a question from listener Sarah. She asks, "What do you do if you have a baby that's not vaccinated but you also have family members who refuse to get the vaccine? I have family members who don't believe COVID is real and don't believe that kids can get it, so they don't want to get the vaccine. However, it's making a strain in our family. What do you do?"

This is something that I personally deal with so today I am sharing my experience and my little piece of advice on this topic. Simply put: my child, my choice!! You are that boss, mama!! This is for all scenarios, not even just covid related but everything. Your child, your choice!! Say it again!

Thank you to everyone who has left a rating or review of the show so far! You can leave a rating on Apple by going to the show and scrolling all the way to the bottom. I can't wait to read your review in an upcoming episode.

As always, feel free to send me a DM on IG @motheroffawn or email to [email protected] if you have topic suggestions/questions/or experiences to share with me.

Stay safe and well, mama!

Hi Mama,

Becoming a parent during the pandemic has been hard, scary, isolating, traumatic, and very very sad. I feel that at my core. But today I wanted to share the positive side of becoming a parent during the pandemic. I know that as I record this that everyone's situation was different and unique, and you might not have the same experience as me, but I hope that one of these positive points resonates with you. What we had to do was "unprecedented"... yup, I'm sick of that term too, but it's true! I know the pandemic isn't over, but I am optimistic that brighter days are coming. If we can get through this, we can do anything!

If you want to share your personal experience, send me a message on Instagram @motheroffawn or an email to [email protected]. I would love to hear what the most positive part of becoming a parent during the pandemic has been for you!

Stay safe and well, mama.

Hi Mama,

Wow, I am so nervous to release this episode!! I listened back to it after recording and despite the noises in the background I'm happy because it's one of my best episodes to date. I'm honest, raw and vulnerable as I discuss my recent struggles with Postpartum Rage and PMDD (premenstrual dysphoric disorder) because I want you to know you are NOT ALONE if you suffer from either of these issues.

In this episode I cover:

1. My experience with postpartum rage (what it is, triggers, how it feels)

2. How I realized it might be PMDD instead

3. Symptoms and info about PMDD

4. How I plan to try and treat my PMDD

I want to say thank you to everyone who has been listening and supporting the podcast. I hope to do episodes more often because I really LOVE sharing these episodes with you.

As always, you can find me on Instagram @motheroffawn to ask questions, vent, chat, etc! I'm here for you!!

Please be sure to leave a review on your favorite listening platform so other mamas can find the show and I'll talk to you real soon!

Stay safe and well, mama.
