Mind Mommy Coaching
Welcome to Momfessions-the podcast that will normalise all of the challenges we experience as Moms and give you the tools you need to navigate them. I’m Laura Guckian, Life Coach, Founder of  MIND MOMMY COACHING® and most importantly a Mom of 3. This podcast is unlike any other Motherhood podcast. Because you will be my guests. Each week, I will invite you to share your Momfessions. A Momfession is a challenge or experience that you are afraid to share. The things that make you feel like you are doing this whole Motherhood thing wrong. I am going to help you recognise that you are not the only one, you are not doing anything wrong and most importantly, I will give you the tools you need to be a happier Mom. This is the emotional village that you need. For access to additional tools and resources, please visit the MIND MOMMY COACHING®  Instagram Page (https://www.instagram.com/mindmommycoaching/)
