131: I Love My Kid, but Sometimes I Don't Want to Mom

Written By Cameron Rogers

In today’s solo episode I discuss the moments where I just don’t want to “mom”. I discuss the mental load that is 24/7 once becoming a mom, the times when I miss my old life, the fact that two conflicting emotions can coexist at once, and how we need to stop pushing this narrative on women that you have to enjoy every single second of motherhood. Throughout this episode I also share open, honest, and vulnerable submissions from the FF Family on this topic to remind you all that you are not alone.

Key Takeaway / Points:

  • I love my kid so much, but sometimes I just don’t want to “mom”

  • The mental load that is motherhood

  • Moments where I miss my old life

  • Why it is so important for women to be able to openly and honestly express these emotions

  • Open, honest, and vulnerable submissions from the Freckled Foodie family
