In this thought-provoking episode of "Wellness in Every Season," host Autumn Carter dives deep into a topic often overlooked: the potential for motherhood to be traumatic. Drawing inspiration from her own experiences as well as that of other mothers, Autumn sheds light on the emotional, physical, and psychological challenges mothers may face throughout their journey—from fertility struggles and the transformative experience of pregnancy to the overwhelming demands of childbirth and raising children into adulthood.

Autumn explores how mothers, driven by their innate instinct to protect their children from trauma, often neglect to recognize and address their own experiences of trauma. She compassionately examines the societal pressure on mothers to prioritize their children's well-being above their own, ultimately encouraging self-care, self-compassion, and seeking support as vital tools for healing and navigating the complexities of motherhood.

This episode serves as a reminder that as mothers, it is essential to nurture ourselves amidst the journey. Join Autumn as she provides insights, strategies, and heartfelt guidance on acknowledging and healing from the potential traumas of motherhood. Tune in for a thought-provoking and empowering conversation that aims to support and uplift mothers on their unique path through motherhood.
