Hey Mamas, thanks for tuning in to a brand new episode of the Zen(ish) Mommy Podcast! This is a space where you can show up authentically, have a laugh, educate yourself, and hear a little bit of yourself in each of the guests. Today, we have fellow podcast host and mental health advocate Christie Rocha joining us in conversation. Christie kicks off our discussion by sharing snippets of her own mental health journey, which she later realized has many parallels to the experience other women have navigating the world of motherhood and marriage. Next, you’ll hear about what she has gained through building a relationship with her therapist who provides a container for her to say things she can’t share with anyone else. We touch on taking a seasonal approach to life before Christie shares why it is so important for others to realize the power of asking for help, encouraging listeners to shed their preconceptions in order to benefit from therapy.
Key Points From This Episode:
“I believe that therapy can be for everyone. If you’re truly opposed to it, then it’s probably not going to work for you, and therefore, not an avenue you can explore. But I believe that everyone has something they can work on.” — [0:14:03]
“I think we can heal from things, but in general there will always be something going on.” — [0:32:03]
