My Motherhood with Beck Stanton

#15 Never Alone and Lonely

Beck Stanton Season 1 Episode 15

In this episode of the My Motherhood podcast, we delve into a profound and often unspoken aspect of the motherhood journey: the paradox of feeling constantly surrounded yet deeply lonely. Beck shares her personal reflections on how these two opposing truths coexist in the lives of mothers, creating a unique and challenging tension.

Discover how the demands of mothering, from tending to our children’s needs to constantly being physically and emotionally present, can leave us feeling smothered and overstimulated. At the same time, Beck explores the pervasive loneliness that many mothers experience, despite being surrounded by their children.

We discuss the deep emotional impact of this loneliness, how it can make us question our value and abilities, and why typical advice like self-care and gratitude practices often fall short. Beck emphasizes the importance of community and the critical role of a supportive village, while also highlighting the limitations of peer-based support and the invaluable need for motherhood mentors.

Tune in for an honest, empathetic, and insightful conversation about the complex realities of motherhood. Beck offers her thoughts on finding balance, seeking meaningful connections, and the crucial need for intergenerational support to help mothers navigate their unique journeys.

Whether you’re a new mother, an experienced parent, or someone supporting a mother in your life, this episode provides a compassionate perspective on the multifaceted experience of motherhood. Join us as we explore what it truly means to be never alone, yet lonely, and how we can find hope and comfort in our shared experiences.
