Women have made remarkable progress in various fields and have been breaking barriers and stereotypes in every aspect of life. However, societal expectations and gender biases can make it challenging for women to lead fulfilling and successful lives. Women often struggle to balance their personal and professional lives, maintain healthy relationships, and prioritize their physical and mental well-being. In this context, living their best lives as women requires understanding their strengths, recognizing their self-worth, and leveraging the resources available to them.
In this episode, we are joined by Stefanie Fernandes, a certified parent coach with the Jai Institute for Parenting and a Rapid Transformational Therapy Practitioner trained under Marisa Peer. She is also a hypnobirthing teacher, providing antenatal classes where pregnant women prepare for birth with an empowered and confident mindset. Stephanie shares her postpartum experience, how she got the help she needed to push through, the common symptoms of postpartum depression, and the biggest lesson she learned from motherhood. She also talks about conscious parenting, how parents can implement it, and some powerful ways that women can advocate for themselves as mothers for their own identity. Tune in to learn more!
