Earlier this week, we shared part one of this conversation, all about how to redefine your identity as a new mother. And wow, I love hearing your stories and what’s working for you in this season of your life. Thank you for connecting with me via DM on Instagram @thesimplifiers and sharing it all with me. I believe this is the true secret to life… remembering how we are in community with each other, like a village, sharing stories, fumbles and tips/tricks learned along the way. We care for each other (like a village) and for our children, as a collective. YES, more of this!

Now, if you haven’t heard part one, go back and listen to that one first. But if you’re ready to continue on, let’s pick back up here with my conversation with podcaster Nicole Lawrence as she simplifies how to redefine your identity as a new mother. 

It’s time to simplify… Here’s how.

My special guest today is Nicole Lawrence and she’s simplifying how to redefine your identity as a new mother.

We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including:

• Identity seems like such an integral part of being human and there are so many stories in our lives… how do we distinguish what is true - and what isn’t serving us any longer? 
• Nicole shares a glimpse into her birth story with Rhodes - what she learned about herself before, during the birth, and afterwards that could help other expecting parents and new mothers
• How she meets BIG transitions in life with grace
• What childbirth taught her about  “the rules you set for yourself in life” and your identity

…and ultimately, it seems like we’re in an interesting time in history where gender roles and responsibilities in work and life are shifting - how does this play into redefining your identity?

If you’re a new parent, I really hope this vulnerable conversation with Nicole helps you remember that you are not alone. 

The first couple of years with a new baby can be SUPER tricky as you not only adjust to this new way of living, but also your child learns the rhythms of life outside the womb. Go slow, get outside for some vitamin D (with a little sunscreen) and remember that you’re doing a fantastic job, no matter how messy it may seem, at times.

I hope today’s conversation with Nicole helps you feel more connected with others around you.

Q: Are you ready to learn how to redefine your identity as a new mother? If yes, this one is for you.

It’s time to #DoTheThing
