**TW: brief discussion of potentially activating topics including: infertility, death, difficult Mother's Day emotions. In honor of Mother's Day, Kelsi and Amanda discuss all things motherhood as they relate to holistic wellness and intersectional identities. We hold space for those experiencing difficult emotions related to Mother's Day, including grief, loss, anger, and sadness. We also recognize the impossible standards of society when it comes to being a mother, and how lack of education on these issues can impact physical, mental, emotional, social, occupational, and financial wellness. __ This episode is brought to you by Amanda Kostura, LISW-S of Carve Your Own Path, Inc. and Kelsi Amerine, LISW of Guidance and Growth Psychotherapy Services.
