Struggling As A New Stay At Home Mom

NATALIE BACON
About this episode

The transition to stay-at-home mom can be full of challenges. Whether it's struggling with sleep, purpose, keeping up the house, parenting, or marriage, there's an entirely new set of problems that come with this transition. In this podcast, I share my favorite tips for stay-at-home moms who are struggling in the transition. 

 

You'll hear a specific example from a member of this community who is struggling in the transition with sleep, her baby, and in her marriage. 

 

In response, I share tools and practices to help overcome these obstacles, navigate the transition, feel more confident as a mom and show up as both the wife and mom you want to be.

 

Whether you're a new or seasoned mom, this podcast has something for everyone. You'll learn how to take the mindset work we do here at Mom On Purpose to the next level as both a mother and wife.
