Reborn into Motherhood
The transition into motherhood is one that can only be described as being reborn. There is so much that changes for us mentally, emotionally and physically and every mother's experience is different. Join me, Cynthia Vackar, as I talk to different mamas from all walks of life about their journey into motherhood and beyond.
Reborn into Motherhood
Ep. 36 The mental Load of Motherhood & Why You Matter Too with Natalie Robbins
Motherhood often feels like a never-ending checklist-but behind that is something deeper: the invisible weight we carry, and how it impacts our identity, relationships and ability to care for ourselves.
In this powerful episode, I am joined by Natalie Robbins, a mom of of a two-year-old and a life and leadership coach. We talk about the mental load of motherhood and how it's more than just being busy- it's about the silent responsibilities, emotional labor, and the constant mental tabs we keep open.
We explore the following:
- Identity loss vs. Identity shift- and how to reconnect with who you are.
- Why overwhelm is so common for moms and what we can do about it.
- Making the invisible load visible so you can get real support from your partner or loved ones.
- Practical steps to lighten the load and create space for you.
- How community and connection help us thrive-and why you don't have to do it all alone.
