How to Slay Like a Mother:
A chat with Katherine Wintsch
In today’s episode I chat with Katherine Wintsch, founder & CEO of The Mom Complex, and author of Slay Like a Mother. The subtitle of the book is “How to destroy what’s holding you back so you can live the life you want.” It’s all about slaying your inner dragons, recognizing that inner monologue that often seems like it’s trying to take you down. She talks about the mask we wear when we say everything is “fine,” the difference between struggling and suffering, and how to avoid unrealistic expectations. We talk about her concept of the “perfect mom paradox,” the comparison game, setting boundaries and being kinder to ourselves. She has incredible insight into the mom experience, the woman experience and the human experience.
