Do you have post-pandemic depletion? with Amy Taylor-Kabbaz
About this episode
Could you have post-pandemic depletion? This week’s guest says that living through the stress and uncertainty from the pandemic has probably had a far greater impact on us than we realise. And we need to take a moment to process it before diving back into the busyness of life Amy Taylor-Kabbaz is a matrescence activist, author, and journalist. She is also the author of the amazing book, ‘Mama Rising: Discovering the New You Through Motherhood’ . She came on the podcast back in 2020. I received so many messages about that episode so I’m absolutely thrilled that Amy is back talking about this important and underrecognized event we have all been through. I hope this episode offers you tons of validation and support. Please share it with your mum-friends who you feel should hear this. Be that person empowering, uplifting and inspiring other people and help me to do that too. Let’s keep sharing this wisdom and get more and more of these messages out to the people who need it.
