Nona Southard stops by to pour some of her overflowing bravery and courage into any new parents' cups. She speaks on the changes she experienced stepping into motherhood, like having to give up hobbies, quit medications, lose friends, fear judgments, and re-connect with her body and interests. We make it clear mom-shaming is officially "uncool". Nona wants new mothers to do their research on postpartum depression, which she offers some personal experience and advice with. Many women deal with drastic changes to their interests and personality after such changes but feel afraid to speak up about it or face it. Nona laying out her experience from such an honest place gives some strength to any listener who needs a bit extra today. We dive into Nona's newly switching interests and bailing on her social media avatar. She mentions her mom's fairly new smoothie business, (Raw Juice Bar), we talk about woodworking and passion amidst our jobs, and Nona offers a few light tips on weapons. I am grateful Nona was so eager to leave masks at the door and let other parents and women feel less alone through her vulnerability. She's awesome!
