Mumma Got Skills: Women's Circle

Women’s Circle by Mumma Got Skills came about from the many many incredible stories I have had the pleasure to listen to in the postnatal craft groups that I run in Queensland, Australia. Becoming a mother may be something that women have done for thousands of years however, it does not take away from the profound transformational nature of this sacred journey. Women’s Circle is a space to share the stories of local women in the hopes that their words may support, validate or shape your own journey.I personally have been on an immense journey of growth since having my son in December 2017 and I love to connect my community with resources and support in all things personal development and parenting. Get ready to hear from women just like you as well as a sprinkling of chats with experts in different fields relating to women and motherhood.I am so very excited to share this space with you. Welcome.

02. Normalising Stigma Around Postnatal Anxiety And Practicing Self-Care| Suzanne

September 27, 2021 • Season 1 • Episode 2

Welcome to episode two of Mumma Got Skills: Women’s Circle. I am beyond grateful to have you join us today.

I will be chatting to Suzanne who is Scottish born and moved to Australia in 2014 with her husband to start a new life. Living in Brisbane, Suzanne opens up about having two children in a new country away from family, agonising sleep difficulties and big BIG feelings post birth. We talk about normalising **postnatal anxiety, the crippling fear surrounding this often-stigmatised condition and how it relates back to our own childhood and hormones. Plus we also get into talking about communication with a partner post birth and how the birth of a second child can heal previous birth trauma.

** Please note, we will be discussing postnatal anxiety and depression in this episode. If that is at all triggering for you, please find links below to 24/7 support.

Welcoming you to the space.

Love, Carlie
