Maternal Ambivalence. Honouring Your Authentic Self in Motherhood – with Katrina Court.

Do you love your kids yet dislike the mundane of everyday motherhood?

Feeling grateful to be a Mum yet longing for the woman you used to be?

Love spending time with them yet desire a time just for yourself?

Maternal Ambivalence is REAL. Honouring it means you are honouring yourself and accepting that motherhood is both, beautiful and brutal, joyful and sad, graceful and hard. And IT’S NORMAL to feel it.

So why it may be difficult for mums to embrace it?

What can we do to find relief from too demanding society and from our own mind?

If you are curious to find answers to that, this episode is for you!

In today’s episode I speak to Katrina Court, a Life Coach, Matrescence Educator, Activist, and a mum of 1.

Katrina works with women who are ready to redefine what being a modern-day mother means for them. She supports mums to mother, live and work in a way that feels aligned with who they are, not the version of motherhood that has left them feeling lost and depleted.

Topics covered in this episode:

· Katrina’s matrescence journey

· How birth experience impacts mother’s confidence

· Pressure to breastfeed.

· Failing as a mum

· What is maternal ambivalence?

· How to honour and embrace maternal ambivalence

· Authenticity in Motherhood

· Fear of judgment and the pressure to parent “correctly”

· How Matrescence Coach can support mums in finding more joy in motherhood

This conversation was personal, insightful, and broadening perspective. Hope it helps you honour and embrace all faces of motherhood with confidence and self-compassion.

Enjoy!
