Brittany L. Bergman: Expecting Wonder and Making Space in Motherhood

For today’s episode I had the joy of chatting with Brittany L. Bergman, author of the new book Expecting Wonder: The Transformative Experience of Becoming a Mother. What I love about this book and our conversation is that they’re centered on the journey of becoming a mom, including both the emotional challenges and incredible blessings that go along with it. Brittany shares such powerful wisdom for new moms and moms-to-be when it comes to making space for the transition into motherhood, learning how to embrace your new identity as a mom, and even getting creative when life looks vastly different than expected. I believe you are going to find Brittany’s book and message so relatable and that you will walk away from this episode feeling encouraged! In today’s episode, Brittany and I chat about: - the heart and backstory behind her new book Expecting Wonder - some of the fears and emotional challenges new moms wrestle with as they first enter into motherhood - Brittany’s personal journey of embracing her new identity as a mom and meeting God along the way, as well as encouragement for moms who are navigating the same - practical ways moms and moms-to-be can make space physically and emotionally for this new role as “mom” - how this journey of stepping into parenthood can be used to draw you and your partner closer to one another - encouragement for the working mom who is feeling pulled between her career and motherhood Resources Mentioned: Buy Expecting Wonder: https://www.amazon.com/Expecting-Wonder-Transformative-Experience-Becoming/dp/1506458904/ Follow Brittany on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brittanylbergman/?hl=en Brittany’s Website: https://www.brittanylbergman.com/ Self-Care Planner for Busy Moms: https://www.subscribepage.com/busymoms Get FREE access to my Three Steps to Empowerment for the Angry Mom video training: http://www.jessieereddia.com/threestepsfreebie Learn more about my Mom Empowered coaching program and how I empower moms to gain the emotional wellness they need to confidently create the life they’ve always wanted: http://www.jessieereddia.com/coaching Connect with me on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/jessieereddia Join the Mom Empowered Facebook community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/momempowered Today’s episode is sponsored by Freshly.
