Laura Brand: Finally learning to accept help transformed my motherhood - here's how I did it
Sobre este episódio
This week I have a joyful guest for you. It is Laura Brand. She is a mum of 2 and author of 3 incredible books. Her newest book is called Slow down and be here now. A gorgeous book about nature and how it can help us slow down and be more present. I loved this conversation. Especially how honest Laura was. She reminded me about how messy, imperfect, joyful, hard and wonderful motherhood is. SPECIAL THANKS TO THIS WEEK’S SPONSORS My sponsor this week is Athletic Greens. I love AG1. I take it every morning when I’m making the girls breakfast. AG1 has over 7k 5* reviews and I can see why. It’s a supplement with 75 ingredients and its special blend is designed to support gut health, nervous and immune system, energy, recovery, focus and even aging. It’s one of my non-negotiables. It tastes quite nice and while I’m drinking it I’m reminding myself I’m worth looking after and that I can only be the mother and person I want to be in the world when I look after myself.
