Confident Like a Mother

Kaitlynn Norwoodwww.kaitlynnnorwood.net

"Confident like a Mother" podcast is all about learning who you are as a human first and how to continuously return to that in the midst of mothering other humans. It’s with the return to self where you will find the confidence + joy we are all seeking. Being a mother is a wonderful privilege + challenge. Figuring out YOUR desires, your values and what makes you feel ALIVE! This podcast helps you tap into what makes you feel more alive through interviews and storytelling of the lived experience of mothers. Finding your confidence as a mother is NOT about what you know, or having the answers- It is knowing and believing that YOU are in fact, the answer. Welcome Home!
