How to Balance Being a Mom and Taking Care of Your Mental Health

What does it really take to show up as your full self in motherhood when you’re balancing everything for not only your children, but also yourself ?

In this episode of "Mind If We Talk?," Haesue sits down with Deena Margolin and Kristin Gallant, co-founders of Big Little Feelings and longtime best friends. They open up about their journeys with postpartum, late-in-life ADHD and autism diagnoses, and the pressure to "keep it together" as parents.

Then, Haesue talks with Cameron Oaks Rogers—mental health advocate, host of “Conversations with Cam,” and the creator of Quiet Your Mind and Busy Your Hands, a journal and adult coloring affirmation book. Cameron offers practical advice for preparing for postpartum, navigating motherhood as a neurodivergent person, and maintaining your identity beyond motherhood—plus tangible ways friends and partners can show up for struggling new moms.

If you're a parent feeling like everything is harder than it should be, or if you love someone who is, this episode is for you.
