Mrs Mummy PhD®

But as driven and ambitious as we may think we are, we know full well that our scholarly pursuits don’t happen in a vacuum. Scholarly Motherhood a difficult, complex journey full of 'ups, downs and all arounds' in which we can easily lose ourselves under the pressure of it all.

111. Rediscovering Self: Who Were You Before The World Gave You Labels?
Who are you beyond “Mum,” “Dr,” “Wife,” "Daughter", or “Manager”?
In this soul-stirring episode, we explore what happens when we strip away the titles, roles, and responsibilities we carry—and come face-to-face with the essence of who we truly are. If you’ve ever felt lost beneath your labels or longed to reconnect with the woman within, this conversation is your gentle nudge home.
Tune in to rediscover the power of your presence, the depth of your identity, and the beauty of being more than what you do.
