In the beginning of both my motherhoods (with one In the beginning of both my motherhoods (with one and then two kids), I felt like I had to learn about living in so many contradictions and dualities. It was confusing AF at times and having to hold all of it took some navigating. When I became a mother… I had never been more in love with my partner and at the same time experienced more rage than I even knew existed in me. Postpartum rage is a real thing. I was in complete awe and admiration at my body’s capability, while also feeling so foreign within her at times. Wanting to be inwards, at home and just with my little family and yet at times feelings like I wanted to run away. Desiring alone time and yet only wanting to be with them. Postpartum anxiety is another real deal thing. Sheer happiness with all that was in my life with having kids and yet missing my child-free life. Looking forward to getting back to work hoping I’d feel a bit like an adult and myself again, and yet dreading when I’d have to actually start work. Postpartum grief is a trip. So connected to an intuition and feminine depth that was transformative, while also feeling so disconnected and out of body at times. Craving intimate touch and connection with my partner, while also feeling exhausted with the thought of even engaging in anything intimate. Touch overload (from kids) along with intimate touch deprivation (from parter), also majorly confusing! Did you experience any contradictions or have to learn to be in the duality of it all?! . #postpartumjourney #ppd #postpartumdepression #postpartumanxiety #postpartumgrief #motherhoodunplugged #motherhood #motherly #motherhoodspeaks #mamalife #womensupportingwomen #empowered #grief #sharing

What I see in my mother that she carries, I know i What I see in my mother that she carries, I know is what I carry. It’s familiar and knowing to me. I carry my own wounds, and yet I also am knowing in my body that I carry those of her, my grandmother and the women before. In my mother realizing how her own mother was raised by a mother during a war and Great Depression, she too felt how she has been impacted on a level of her own DNA. I saw our legacy…generations of depressed mothers. The generations of depressed mothers, this legacy that has been of mothering in my family, has made it difficult for each mother to protect and nurture their own daughters. This line has led through all of the women, and it has directly impacted their mothering. I know I feel it, I know my mother feels it, and I know my grandmother felt it.
Here is a story about the professional becoming th Here is a story about the professional becoming the personal, and how my healing in the personal influences my professional. In just a few days, I will be welcoming 8 women into a new Mother Hunger group, based on the work of @kellymcdanieltherapy . At its essence Mother Hunger is about naming one of the first and most intimate relational injuries. It’s about helping adult daughters understand the role of lost nurturance, guidance and/or protection from their mother. And about our upcoming group, I am SO excited. So I’ve been buzzing on it!! Wellllll, my mom tells me yesterday that she bought the book and had begun listening to it. And you know what? I froze a little bit inside…I wondered if this meant “we” are going to have to talk about “us”, is there going to be questions about my experience of her mothering, and is this the conversation where I acknowledge the first time I went to therapy was actually to talk about me and her. Today we sat at lunch together and I braved the conversation…”so what are you feeling in reading Mother Hunger, have you cried yet?!” She shared with me her effort to stay focused on being a daughter, what her own little girl experienced growing up, and not getting stuck on replaying and thinking about all the ways she has “failed” as a mother. We talked about her experiences growing up with my grandmother. Already using the words she has taken in from the book, she talked about feeling her mom’s inability to protect her and the anxiety she notices then in her marriage. I could see and hear her little girl, while also sitting with the woman who has already been on her own journey in the past 3 years (since my grandmother had a major stroke) in nurturing and learning how to protect that little girl. We didn’t really talk about her and me. It was there, and in time I am sure we will get there, but for today I am honored that my mother shared with me about her own little girl, the Mother Hunger she sees now, and together we begin to notice the legacies that have transmitted through the generations of our women.
Many people assume that the pen¡s is a muscle, an Many people assume that the pen¡s is a muscle, and when we talk about erections it can often sound like assumptions are made it operates like a muscle. Squeezing it like your biceps, does not make it harder. Now, it does have a unique muscular structure, that when aroused the smooth muscles in the arteries actually relax, opening them up and allowing the pen¡s to fill with blood and a hard erection to be. . #educateyourself #healthawareness #body
Where are all my #ambiverts 🙋‍♀️ I rememb Where are all my #ambiverts 🙋‍♀️ I remember the first time I heard this descriptor for someone and I was like YES, I GET THAT!! As I’ve gotten older I have for sure become more of an ambivert, moving inwards from being an extrovert. I love this space though, the enjoyments of being and extrovert and the spaces of being more introverted. I actually have really needed the introverted parts in my life more to recharge, just as much as I need the extroverted parts the energize. It’s a blend that I think takes some finessing and play, but I truly feel like I’ve been finding it. What about you?! Where do you feel like you land? #extrovert #introvert #ambivert #ambivertlife #worklifebalance #worklifeintegration
Maybe I was told and didn’t really get it, or ma Maybe I was told and didn’t really get it, or maybe none of you were straight up honest with me that being a mother of multiple kids isn’t really about being a mom most of the time. My primary function now is as a referee. Sole job description: ensure that all little humans semi adhere to rules so that they stay alive, keep their hands to themselves, and eat some meals. 👍 #parentinghumor #parenting #motherhoodunplugged #girlmom #kids #mixedkids #momlife #mumlife
Saying “no” can be difficult. Whether with fri Saying “no” can be difficult. Whether with friends, family or in a s€xual relationship. Sometimes it’s not a straightforward “no” although all full intention to be. If you heard one of these, can you respect that as a “no” or do you hear there is room for some wiggle towards a yes?
The recent passing of #chesliekryst by suicide has The recent passing of #chesliekryst by suicide has so many headlines and media sharing about how she died, but what about noting about the actual suicide epidemic? What about looking at systemically how we are failing our communities? What are the pitfalls in mental health services? And noting that suicide does not discriminate. As a mental health professional I cannot stress enough the amount of suicide risks, ideation, attempts and completes that I have processed. Please know there are resources out there in support. All you have to do is search “Suicide Risk hotline” for your country/area and you will be able to get connected to someone.
