Surviving Motherhood and Desert Islands
Manage episode 389194410 series 3392539
Ever felt the pressure of not matching past successes? Or perhaps the societal demands of having an identity outside of being a parent? We take an introspective look at our personal and professional lives, and we break down our experiences with identity crises, postpartum depression, the challenges of evolving in a creative career, and what it truly means to live in the present. This week we give some insight in to how 2023 has gone and what we hope will be different as we enter a new year.
Enjoy a few fun personal anecdotes - from our daughter hilariously picking up phrases to our initial dating days and questionable fashion choices - as we attempt to keep things light during our 2023 recap. After all that, we hit Greg's Reads of the Week and Matt picks another Word of the Week on the fly before jumping into the last voicemail session of the year.
Topics include parenting, relationships, and mental health, so join us for a candid discussion on life, growth, and the joys and struggles of being parents.
We are going on break until January 10th, but don't let that stop you from reaching out to our email or voicemail!
Thank you to everyone who has joined us over the past sixty episodes and we look forward to making it even better next year!
