Vanessa Bennett - The Motherhood Myth

Real Love Ready: The Series

Show Notes

What does it really mean to be a “good mom”—and who gets to decide? In this episode of Let’s Talk Love, Robin sits down with therapist, author, and mother Vanessa Bennett for a candid conversation inspired by her new book, The Motherhood Myth. Together, they explore the myths and societal pressures placed on women, the impact of over-parenting, and the learning and growth available to all of us when we create space in our lives to just be. Vanessa shares stories from her own journey and insights from her work, offering a grounded perspective on how women can honor themselves while caring for others. This conversation is an invitation to release outdated expectations, embrace the full truth of motherhood, and lean into the support and connection we all need along the way. We want to hear from you!
