S5: E6 Julianne Boutaleb, Perinatal Psychologist

The Stork and I

In todays episode I speak to Julianne Boutaleb.

Julianne is the Clinical Director and Founder of the Parenthood In Mind practice. She is a passionate and highly experienced perinatal psychologist who has worked for over 20 years in the NHS and private practice with parents and parents-to-be and their babies (and bumps) who have needed support with a wide variety of issues.

In todays episode we cover:

- Our reproductive stories and coming to terms with the fact that they might be different to how we originally thought they would be

- Dealing with feelings of loneliness and shame

- Managing the 'ouch moments' beyond the fairytale

- Projections on our beliefs of motherhood

- The feelings of finding parenting hard after a difficult fertility journey

- The importance of finding our village

- The importance of filling our own cup

- Tips of how to manage tricky questions that catch us off guard

and much more.....
