How much does our community impact the choices we make? How do we find our path when it’s conflicting with our perceived expectations? Rachel Nielson talks about how her upbringing and Mormon religion impacted her path as a mom -- she was expected to be a stay-at-home mom but it didn’t feel right to her. She challenged the expectations of her culture -- and loves her career & life now (which also is earning her good money!). Then clinical psychologist Dr Lisa Damour has advice on how to handle change with your partner - husband or spouse or whomever - and if you’re worried you’re making the wrong choice being a stay-at-home mom or being a working mom - Dr Lisa has some very encouraging research she’ll reveal! In our Real Mom Moment Digital Creator Nicki Marie hilariously tells us what parenthood means to her - it involves her child’s storytelling which is of questionable truth.
