Momwell — Health & Fitness
Momwell

We often enter motherhood envisioning joy, nurturing, peace, and love. But the reality can blindside us. Nobody tells us about Mom Rage, overstimulation, intrusive thoughts, or other mental health struggles. Unfortunately, when we seek help, we might face a lack of support, a system that doesn’t put moms first, and a world that turns a blind eye to the challenges of motherhood. We’re here to change that. We believe that moms deserve access to community, support, and mental health literacy. If you’re struggling with motherhood, you’re not alone–and you’re not failing. On The Momwell Podcast, host and psychotherapist Erica Djossa teaches strategies to help you cope with the psychological and emotional load of motherhood and prioritize your mental health and wellbeing. Erica shares the best kept secrets of the therapy world and interviews other professionals (psychologists, pediatricians, psychiatrists, fertility specialists, lactation consultants, and more!) who provide their expertise to empower you on your motherhood journey.

Show notes

Many of us want to foster emotional learning for our kids and support them as they navigate their big feelings—but we don’t always have the right tools in our toolbox. In fact, we’re often learning these skills for ourselves while we try to teach them to our children.

Show notes

Parenting can take a toll on our relationship with our partner, leaving us feeling resentful or falling into common arguments. But what if our partner isn’t the problem? What if stress is causing the conflict–not the other way around? And what if we can learn how to get back on the same page and navigate it together?

This week on The Momwell Podcast, I’m joined by family therapist Liz Earnshaw, author of 'Til Death Do Us Part and founder of Liz Listens, to discuss stress and relationship conflict after having a baby, and how we can learn to connect, communicate, and work as a team.
