PART OF IT
Words of Women’s official podcast brings the popular Instagram and online community to life as it explores the areas, themes and different stages of a woman's life. From the experiences we all go through, to the ones we wonder about, it's an honest, real-life examination of the parts of life every woman needs to talk...or at least, hear about.
PART OF IT
The Reality of The Stay-at-Home-Mom
It's the hardest job in the world...and the most judged. Is there a stigma to the stay-at-home-mom? Do they feel it? What do they say when people ask what they do? I will admit, I used to judge them. Then... I admired them. Now, I just want to understand them. What's it really like for stay-at-home moms? I talk to three of them in the middle of their days. Not just about what they're doing...how they're feeling. Are they happy? Are they fulfilled? The answers are not as cut and dry as anyone thinks. In fact, the answer leads to the question all women face. What is fulfillment?
In this episode, I explore the daily routines, the emotional landscape and the inevitable sacrifices every mother makes. Including discussions around postpartum, anxiety and emotionally unavailable parenting.
