#29 Why You’ll Never Be the ‘Perfect Mum’—And Why That’s a Good Thing [Comparison Series 5]
“Why do I feel like I’m never enough as a mum?”
In this episode of My Motherhood with Beck Stanton, we dive headfirst into the pressures, myths, and impossible ideals shaping modern motherhood. From the "good mother" archetype we’ve inherited from TV mums like June Cleaver and Carol Brady to today’s Instagram-perfect multitaskers, we explore how societal expectations set us up to fail—and why it’s time to break free.
We unpack the origins of the "good mother" myth, the subtle and not-so-subtle ways cultural narratives creep into our lives, and how these comparisons leave us feeling isolated, overwhelmed, and guilty. Discover practical tools to reclaim your own version of motherhood, curate influences that uplift you, and redefine success on your own terms.
If you’ve ever felt the crushing weight of societal expectations or wondered how to silence that inner critic, this episode is for you. By the end, you’ll feel lighter, more confident, and ready to rewrite the script of what it means to be a mum in today’s world.
This episode tackles relatable themes like comparison, cultural myths, identity, and imperfection—reminding you that motherhood is as unique as you are.
