In order to feel better as mothers, we need to get to the root of the issue instead of just focusing on the outward action.In this week’s episode, we break down where mom rage comes from and what we can do as parents to prevent it in the first place.

71. HERself Expert: Dr. Ashurina Ream (PsychedMommy) on Body Image, Miscarriage, and Overcoming Overwhelm in Motherhood

Dr. Ashurina Ream (known as @psychedmommy everywhere) is back on the podcast today. Dr. Ream is a psychologist who is certified in perinatal mental health. We covered SO many important topics in this interview. We spent the first half of the podcast talking about body image- diving into specifics about why many women struggle with this and what you can do to start improving yours. Before focusing on perinatal mental health- Dr. Ream specialized in helping people with eating disorders- so she brought a ton of valuable insight into the conversation. We also cover miscarriage- something that SO many women go through, but a topic that isn't talked about often. Lastly, we finish up with the overwhelm of motherhood and what you can do about it. Hope you enjoy this episode- it was an incredible and important conversation. MEET DR.
