51. The Perfect Mother Myth
Episode description
The Perfect Mother Myth - it’s a construct of patriarchal motherhood that keeps us in martyrdom.
That’s why, I’m really excited about today’s episode as it’s going to be so helpful to so many mums.
My guest today is Louise East a certified Mindset and Life Coach and fellow Matrescence Facilitator. She works with overwhelmed mums who are ready to release guilt and perfectionism and live a calmer, more intentional life that makes their heart happy.
Louise shows us that it is possible and valuable to release yourself from the binds of the perfect mother myth.
"The mental load of perfectionism prevents you from having peace”
