Welcome to This Is Where We Heal with Ashley Taylor-Maland! In this episode, I sit down with Kathryn, a mother, coach, and advocate for self-discovery and empowerment, to talk about the importance of balancing motherhood, purpose, and personal fulfillment.

Kathryn’s journey started when she became a mother—but she quickly realized that while motherhood was part of her purpose, it wasn’t her only purpose. She shares how she broke free from the societal expectations that mothers must sacrifice everything and instead built a life that honored both her children and herself.

We dive into: ✅ The guilt & shame mothers feel when they want more than motherhood ✅ Why centering yourself isn’t selfish—but necessary ✅ How to break free from the “martyr mom” mindset ✅ The difference between being self-centered and self-centric ✅ How healing and personal growth create better parents, partners, and leaders If you’ve ever felt like you’ve lost yourself in motherhood or struggled with guilt for wanting more, this episode will empower you to redefine what it means to be a present, fulfilled, and thriving woman. 💙
