Emotions play an important role in how we think, feel, react and behave; they are an essential part of being human. Everyone goes through tough chapters in life where they experience mental and emotional stress, like sadness, anxiety, fear, and grief, for example. Acknowledging how you feel and committing to take care of yourself emotionally, creatively, physically, and spiritually, can help turn negative experiences and the thoughts and feelings that come along with it, into change, growth, and healing. In a book that's both provocative and radical, holistic psychiatrist Kelly Brogan, M.D., author of A Mind of Your Own, charts a new path to get real, get well, and get free.  This is the Empowered Mama Podcast. Anxiety and depression are a mental health epidemic, with anxiety disorders taking the lead for the most common mental illness in the U.S., affecting 18.1% of the national population and 260 million people globally (According to the Anxiety and Depression Association). 322 million people worldwide live

We often second guess our choices as parents because we are told to do things in a certain way, even if those choices don't seem ideal for us. My guest today hopes to change this. She wants to inspire moms to make their own choices, not conform to societal or cultural norms, and to create a path that’s authentic to their lives and identities. I’m super excited today to meet my guest Sri.  She started a very cool website and podcast called Big Little Choices. It began with the intention of creating a space where women (especially moms) could share their choices without fearing judgment. There is no one right way to parent - whether it be how your kids eat, sleep, learn or play. It really comes down to what works for you and for your family. https://www.biglittlechoices.co The Empowered Mama is part of the Parents On Demand Network.

As any new parent knows, there is an abundance of often-conflicting advice hurled at you from doctors, family, friends, and strangers on the internet. From the earliest days, parents get the message that they must make certain choices around feeding, sleep, and schedule or all will be lost. There's a rule—or three—for everything. But the benefits of these choices can be overstated, and the trade-offs can be profound. How do you make your own best decision? Emily Oster is my guest today. Her goal is to make you less confused, more confident and less judgmental of parents who make different choices. This is The Empowered Mama Podcast. This episode is brought to you by fit4mom.
