Welcome to episode 1 of our 6 part mini series with the wonderful Kris Byrnes. In this ep we will be opening up about one of the most challenging, yet often overlooked, aspects of parenthood: maintaining self-identity amidst the demands of family life. How do you stay true to yourself while giving so much to your children, partner, and the roles you’re expected to play? We dive deep into our personal journeys of becoming mothers , the struggles of balancing individuality with family dynamics, and the societal pressures that often push parents to lose themselves in their roles. This episode also features tips for creating space for personal growth and boundaries within the chaos of parenting, a discussion about the importance of modeling self-awareness to your children, and a reminder that your own dreams and identity matter. It’s not just about being the best parent—it’s about being the fullest version of yourself. Tune in for an honest, raw, and inspiring conversation that sets the tone for this six-part series on navigating parenthood while staying grounded in who you are. Perfect for: • Parents grappling with identity shifts. • Soon-to-be moms looking for advice on what to expect. • Anyone craving a balance between self and family life. Stay connected as we take you on a journey through topics that empower parents to stay rooted in their values while rising to meet life’s ever-changing demands. I hope you enjoy! Xx
