This episode of the Momship Mastery podcast features an engaging conversation with Tessia Watson, a French author living in London, who specializes in motherhood and self-care. Tessia shares her insights on the importance of mothers taking care of themselves to positively impact their children's well-being. She emphasizes how societal conditioning often neglects the necessity of self-care among mothers, leading to burnout and a loss of identity beyond being a parent.
Tessia discusses her book 'Rejuvenated Moms Make Happy Kids,' advocating for mothers to prioritize their well-being to be better parents. The conversation also touches on various aspects of motherhood, including the unique challenges faced by single mothers and the significance of building a support system. Tessia offers practical advice on finding time for self-care, even for those who can't afford nannies or house helpers, by nurturing the desire for personal time and utilizing visualization techniques.
The episode is a call to action for mothers to break the cycle of guilt associated with self-care and to redefine their motherhood journey on their own terms.
