In today's episode, we welcome our guest Allie McQuaid, a mom, therapist, and business owner. We chat about the pervasive guilt and pressure to be perfect that many moms experience, and how modern mothers increasingly balance professional work inside or outside the home. Allie also shares her journey of opening a private practice in Maryland, where she works with moms from a 'treehouse' office space (it is SO amazing!!) aiming to create a safe and welcoming environment. Societal expectations, the impact of screen time on children, and the need for more supportive mental health resources and community for mothers are all topics in toady's episode and trust - you don't want to miss this one!
