The Mostly Mental Mom
EP.2: Real Talk | The Importance of Showing Up
Hi, Lauren here -- your host and resident Mostly Mental Mom. In today's episode, I am going ahead and breaking down the walls of vulnerability and getting real about my own battle with mental health and the havoc it wreaks daily.
I discuss the struggle of the war in my own mind, how I frequently feel like a failure and the burden on my support system and how it was hard to show up for myself TODAY. But recording this episode helped remind me of my own WHY and that there are others also trying to figure out how to show up and not just how but that it is okay to JUST show up.
You may feel like a failure, you may feel like you are the problem but don't let your mental health disorder decide WHO you are -- it plays a BIG role, but you get to tell the story. And I am here to be real with you guys that it is hard but even harder alone and you are not alone.
Thank you for listening and please share, comment & like -- all the things!
