Podcast Episode 64: Revisiting Liberating the Martyrmom

This week on Young Honest Mother: The Podcast, we're revisiting an honest conversation that was originally recorded and published in 2019.

I met Ashleigh in the comments section of one of @elizabeth_gilbert_writer's Instagram posts about universal human compassion. She shared about how her family started thriving again after "doing a 180 from martyrmom to selfish mom."

During this time, when the responsibilities of parents have multiplied in response to the pandemic, I think it's critical to slow down and re-evaluate how we're choosing to take on the tasks of marriage, motherhood and modern home economics. And this already-published episode serves as such a poignant reminder.

In Ep. 064, Ashleigh shares how she:

• Eased up on upholding the highest level of difficulty

• Gave herself permission to have emotional needs

• Uncovered ways to love herself better by releasing judgment

• Shifted her family dynamic in a magical way

And so. much. more. Press play to listen to this raw and honest conversation, and listen to the journey that Ashleigh has now chronicled in her upcoming memoir.
