About this episode

In this episode of Mom on the Verge, I’m joined by Carly Ely, a psychologist and conscious motherhood coach who specializes in helping highly sensitive moms heal their emotions. We explore the unique journey of introverted and neurodivergent parents, the physical and emotional impacts of parenting, and how to cultivate self-care while nurturing your family.

  • Parenting as a Neurodivergent Individual: Tools for self-support and navigating the added complexity.
  • Emotional and Physical Toll: Recognizing signs of stress, burnout, and the need for recharge.
  • Setting Boundaries for Self-Care: Tips for maintaining healthy boundaries and prioritizing well-being.
  • Effective Coping Tools:
  • Conscious Parenting: Mindful approaches that promote deeper connections with your children.

Carly and I discuss powerful strategies for parents to honor their introversion, create balance, and embrace conscious parenting, all while staying aligned with their authentic selves.
