Boundaries & Decision Making In Motherhood with Monika Malan
This week I am joined by Life Coach Monika Malan for a powerful, vulnerable conversation about boundaries, decision making, and mental health in motherhood. We are digging into the hard conversations, and Monika speaks beautifully on her experiences and the impact she is working towards in the area of motherhood support.
In this episode, Monika and I chat about:
- Motherhood during the pandemic
- The challenges new moms often face
- What it looks like to set boundaries as a mother
- The complexity of decision making
- Why so many moms feel overwhelmed
- Tools for managing anxiety
A little about our guest:
From battling depression and anxiety for years, and giving birth during the start of COVID-19, level 5 lockdown, Monika now teaches other moms how to cope with anxiety. Monika is a life coach, a leader and mentor in the corporate world for over 15 years, and has overcome anxiety and insecurity as a new mom. She blends her skills to help anxious first-time moms relax and enjoy motherhood without living in constant fear of doing something wrong.

Monika is also offering free coaching sessions to a few listeners, so reach out to her on Instagram for more information on that!
