Episode 39 Postpartum Anxiety: A Journey of Self-Talk, Self-Compassion and Transformation
Join me as I engage in a sincere, heartfelt conversation with our guest, Shelly Bortolotto, an Australian coach residing in Canada, who bravely lays bare her personal struggles with postpartum anxiety. We navigate through her journey, shedding light on her experiences with Dysphoric Milk Ejection Reflex (DMER) intertwined with postpartum anxiety, and how this challenging phase shaped her life as a new mum.
In this enlightening conversation, Shelly introduces us to the detrimental influence of negative self-talk on mental health. She shares her battle with the suffocating belief of not being enough and the debilitating exhaustion that accompanied this thought process. Learn how Shelly triumphed over these challenges, this conversation underscores the power of our internal dialogues, and highlights how coaching can offer the much-needed perspective to break away from unhealthy mental practices.
As we wind down the episode, we discuss the role of self-awareness and self-compassion in parenting. We delve into the importance of questioning our thoughts and feelings as a means to re-frame our mindset and foster self-compassion. A standout point from our discussion is the necessity of decoupling our self-worth from our parenting performance, acknowledging that parenting can be tough. Learn about how to navigate the often challenging journey of parenting with grace and compassion.
