Join me for another episode of The Next ChaptHER podcast, where we explore what it means to reclaim ownership of your time, well-being, and personal identity outside motherhood.
I'm excited to introduce you to Lindsay Thomason, a mother of two young children and the founder of The Nanny League, a company that helps families build the support system they need.
In today's conversation, we will discuss something close to many mothers' hearts - building a support system and community. We'll discuss how reaching out for help is not a sign of weakness and why prioritizing your mental health before becoming a mother is crucial. After all, you can't be there for others if you're not there for yourself.
"We will discuss how changing the perspective of a nanny's role as an expert who can teach children new skills can assist parents in overcoming feelings of inadequacy or failure. We understand that motherhood can be difficult, and it's okay to seek help. Let's encourage one another to be our best selves."
