Holding Space For Her
In this week's episode of 'Holding Space for Her,' I dive into a deeply personal and vulnerable topic - accepting my postpartum body. Building on the positive feedback from our episode on holding space for mothers with neurodivergent children, I felt inspired to share my journey. I break down my experiences into three phases: denial, a breaking point, and a breakthrough moment. Through sharing my struggles with imposter syndrome, body image issues post-pregnancy, and my eventual path to acceptance, I hope to offer insights and support to other mothers facing similar challenges. I reveal the importance of understanding hormonal imbalances, the impact of sleep deprivation, and the natural biological changes that come with motherhood. Additionally, I share practical tools like meditation, journaling, and scientific research that helped me shift my mindset. Join me as I openly discuss my transition from self-criticism to finding a newfound respect and acceptance for my body, all while encouraging you to embrace your own journey with love and patience.

In this week's episode of 'Holding Space for Her,' host Rita Pietrasano dives into the controversy and personal challenge of navigating gentle parenting. Rita shares her own experiences and internal struggles with balancing the ideals of gentle parenting—empathy, understanding, and respect—with the reality of everyday life and the pressures from both modern and old-school parenting philosophies. She advocates for a more intuitive approach she calls 'good enough parenting,' which allows space for imperfections and emotional authenticity. Rita emphasises the importance of giving oneself grace and recognising that it's okay not to meet the high standards of gentle parenting all the time, introducing the concept of using gentle parenting as a tool rather than a rigid rule.
