If you’re a mom, you’ve probably run into Libby Ward on TikTok or Instagram at Diary of an Honest Mom. She’s a thought leader and mental health advocate with a deep commitment to breaking the cycles of trauma. Libby joins us to discuss how we can re-write the narrative on what it means to be a good mom.

Three things you’ll learn in this episode:

The roots of mom rage and what we can do about it
How to set more realistic expectations for ourselves as mothers
What it means to be the default parent and how we can lighten our mental load

To connect with Libby, head to:

“I don't want to pour into my cup just so I can pour out. I want to pour into my cup because I deserve to feel like I have a whole cup. I want to pour into me so that I feel peace, so that I find joy, so that I can find fulfillment, because I deserve to have all the good things that I believe in my heart that my children also deserve to have. It's really a full circle moment that is hard to live out in a society that praises mothers for being martyrs.” – Libby Ward
