Get Out of Martyr Mom Mode: Setting Boundaries & Prioritizing Yourself with Sage Olson

The title "mom" is not synonymous with "martyr" - but it often feels like it's supposed to be. This week, I'm joined by licensed clinical therapist and coach for new moms, Sage Olson, to talk about getting out of "Martyr Mom Mode" and put yourself back on the priority list! From making decisions with our kids in mind to learning to set healthy boundaries and establish meaningful relationships, this is a rich conversation that will have you reflecting on your own motherhood experience in a new light!

In this episode, Sage and I talk about:

• What "Martyr Mom Mode" is and how we can recognize when we are in it
• How we can maintain our own identity and continue to learn about ourselves in motherhood
• The reality that we can love being a mom and struggle at the same time
• Ways to connect with other moms
• The 3 types of boundaries, and why often times compromise is the answer
• How we can make room for more meaningful relationships
