The Untold Realities of MotherhoodDeeply Connected

The Untold Realities of Motherhood

We are told by so many that motherhood will be the best experience of your life - you will be joyful, excited, and even elevated. You are even expected to be happy at all times. But is this the real experience of motherhood? Or does the truth look more like exhaustion, overwhelm, and confusion?

In this episode, Ludmila creates a space for an honest conversation about motherhood and speaks from her own experience of self-exploration when motherhood broke her and made her again. Because no book or course can prepare you for the role of a lifetime, and if you are struggling, it is okay!

KEY POINTS:

  • The all-consuming truth of motherhood
  • Challenges motherhood can bring to a relationship
  • Why is there a stigma around the struggles of motherhood?
  • How children are mirrors of ourselves
  • Acceptance, grace, and compassion

QUOTABLES:

“I remember talking to my own mom, and she told me, wow, I'm so happy for you. You are entering the best chapter of your life. And then we had our first son. And I looked in the mirror, and I couldn't recognize the person I was looking at. I had no idea who I was.” - Ludmila Woodruff

“So many women struggle in silence. And it doesn't have to be a struggle in silence. It can be an open communication and conversation that we all can have as a society, as culture, as communities, and as families.” - Ludmila Woodruff

“You can only love your kids and extend kindness to them to the extent that you do that for yourself.” - Ludmila Woodruff

Your podcast was so helpful! Especially because as a single woman it’s been challenging to date, I’ve been stuck in my old beliefs, you made me realize that there’s nothing wrong with me and I just have to change the way I see dating. You rock!! ❤️❤️

I’m so happy that you are diving in hyper independence and slowing down. Some women are even since you to operate on a flight mode and they don’t know any better cause that’s their norm. I’m glad your describing episodes that we don’t have to work that way that it’s not healthy to work that way.

Thank you so much! the title of your July 3, 2023 episode Uber hyper independence!
