We often enter motherhood envisioning joy, nurturing, peace, and love. But the reality can blindside us. Nobody tells us about Mom Rage, overstimulation, intrusive thoughts, or other mental health struggles. Unfortunately, when we seek help, we might face a lack of support, a system that doesn’t put moms first, and a world that turns a blind eye to the challenges of motherhood. We’re here to change that. We believe that moms deserve access to community, support, and mental health literacy. If you’re struggling with motherhood, you’re not alone–and you’re not failing. On The Momwell Podcast, host and psychotherapist Erica Djossa teaches strategies to help you cope with the psychological and emotional load of motherhood and prioritize your mental health and wellbeing. Erica shares the best kept secrets of the therapy world and interviews other professionals (psychologists, pediatricians, psychiatrists, fertility specialists, lactation consultants, and more!) who provide their expertise to empower you on your motherhood journey.

250: The Mental Load of Deciding What to Pack for School Lunch with Megan McNamee, MPH, RDN, Co-Founder of Feeding Littles
Deciding what to pack for school lunch can be hard. There’s so much pressure and perfectionism, interwoven with our own fear and insecurity. It’s no wonder so many moms feel overwhelmed by it.
This week on The Momwell Podcast, I’m joined by dietician Megan McNamee, co-founder of Feeding Littles, to discuss how parents can reduce the mental load around what to pack for school lunch, embrace flexibility, and break cycles of unhealthy relationships with food.
