In this episode, we cover:

1. What happens when you feel like you're a "different kind of mom?"Our guest Laura shares that early on, she knew she needed more—more time away, more of her own interests. 
   
   
2. Learn about Mothers and More—a national club Laura was a part of whose focus was simple: Mom needs to be happy, whatever that looks like. 
   
   
3. Why we need to have real conversations about our ambivalent feelings about motherhood AND find other moms who understand us. 
   
   
4. Why you are allowed to have childcare—even if you are a stay-at-home-mom! 
   
   
5. Feel the guilt and do it anyway! How writing helped Laura process her conflicting feelings.
