About this listen
Alex is back this week!
We had planned to discuss money-saving parenting hacks, but instead found ourselves unpacking why mothers create unnecessary complexity when away from our children.
From triple-checking with capable caregivers to rushing back early when everyone's fine, we explore the psychology behind our self-imposed time limits and the freedom waiting on the other side of mother-guilt.
What you'll gain from this episode:
- Recognition of your own "maternal compensation" patterns
- Strategies to combat the guilt of being away
- Permission to enjoy the mental spaciousness that comes with distance
- Practical steps to simplify your time away
- Understanding how your wholeness as a person benefits your children more than constant presence
Do you rush back when you don't need to? Share your experience in the comments!
We'd love to hear how you navigate time away.
