"How can I filter out all the noise and listen to my own wants as a mom?"

I love speaking with expecting moms about to start their motherhood journey. On this episode, I speak with Deepika who is 37 weeks pregnant about filtering out all the noise, opinions, and information out there to find your own voice as a mom. 

We discuss:

• Why motherhood and parenting can seem so overwhelming
• How to take all the information you have and apply it 
• Why looking at the big picture and having perspective can be healing
