Who is this person looking back at me in the mirror?
One of the first places we see the most obvious change when embarking on this journey of motherhood, is our physical body. We are constantly met with internal and external pressures to 'bounce back' or get back to our 'normal' selves. Psychologist Dr. Saliha Afridi, founder of Lighthouse Arabia, takes us through common struggles mothers experience. We discuss internal struggles with body image, mental well-being, and how to reconnect with ourselves as new mothers.
"The body is the secret keeper... we [mothers] actually have a super power we have not tapped into"- Dr. Saliha Afridi
