Parenthood

👄 REAL TALK - Are we just exhausted or are we actually falling apart?

Parenthood

Show Notes

This week we’re answering an audience DM: “I’m a mum of 3 young children and I’m exhausted. It’s impacting my relationship. How do you know if your relationship is truly falling apart, or if it’s just due to the sleep deprivation phase?”

We chat all things the realities of sleep deprivation, our experiences with no sleep in the early days of parenting, how our relationships were challenged due to the lack of sleep and is this just a season?
