Archived Episode: Finding Yourself Again in Motherhood with Morgan Dixon, LMFT

How We Get Thru Podcast

Welcome to How We Get Thru, the podcast where we share stories, mental health insights, and healing advice on life's everyday challenges. I'm your host, Jen, and today's guest is Morgan Dixon (formally Carrion), an licensed marriage and family therapist in California.
In this episode, Morgan shares so many mental health myths about motherhood that will actually surprise you. She talks about how long the postpartum period really is and how our bodies adapt in the process. She also sets the stage for why recalling this experience is an important part of finding ourselves again. Join us as we dive deep into the complexities of motherhood and how it is so obvious why we feel lost in the process.
