The Burn Out Moms Don’t Talk About
How often do you as a parent complain about constantly being exhausted and coming home to an even more stressful environment? Most parents hate to admit that at times they wish they could hit the switch off button and escape being a parent for a second.
Today on #TheSitDownParenting, we unpack a phenomenon that mothers hardly speak about…Parental Burn Out. We are joined by Clinical Psychologist, Viwe Dweba who will help us identify the sign of burn out, unpack the guilt associated with it and strategies we can use to combat the burn out.
