Why We Lose Ourselves in Parenting (and How to Get Back)

I’m joined by Jo Rodriguez, a health psychologist and the voice behind Straightforward Psychology on Instagram (63k followers). She helps overwhelmed, exhausted adults feel less sh*t - and in this chat, we bring her wisdom straight into the world of parenting.

Here’s what we cover:

⭐ Why kids trigger us more than anyone else

⭐ What happens when we calm the body first so the mind can follow

⭐ How to know if you’re tired vs burned out

⭐ Finding yourself again after having kids

⭐ Why parenting brings out so much anxiety

⭐ The guilt parents feel for putting themselves first - and how to move past it
