S2 Episode 5: Mum rage & resentment with Sophie Harris AKA Looking After Mum
On this episode of the Sleep Show I speak to pregnancy and postpartum psychotherapist Sophie Harris.
Sophie’s a psychotherapist who specialises in helping new mums during pregnancy and postpartum. She aims to normalise motherhood's tough times, help mums feel better, and celebrate being a mother. She believes that supporting and valuing the role of a mother should be made a priority to help build a happier and healthier society.
She’s also known as Looking After Mum on Instagram and I absolutely LOVE her reassuring and supportive posts. I experienced night rage as a new mum and I wasn’t expecting it. The rage really took me by surprise and I found her page invaluable in my early days of motherhood.
I really hope she becomes a regular guest on the podcast for us!
During this episode she talks us through:
-Mum rage
-Irrational fears
-Intrusive thoughts
-Anxiety
-Anxious thoughts
-Resentment
And SO much more!
I found it so reassuring to hear that I wasn’t the only one who found some days so exhausting that I didn’t have the energy to even brush my teeth.
And I really hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as we enjoyed recording it together!
