Often as Mothers we feel judged and pressured into making ourselves fit into a certain mold of what a "picture perfect" mother looks like. Reality is that motherhood looks different for every woman, and our journey to get there is also very unique. Today we chat with Reby Hardy, who says she's not your typical mom and she's proud of it.
Stefani Reinold is a board certified psychiatrist, maternal mental health expert, and Founder of Not the Typical Mom -- a blog and podcast about the not so typical, but all too common issues of motherhood. She helps high achieving moms escape the stereotypes, find their hearts, and embrace who they really are so that they can kill it in life, love and business.

Key Conversation Points: We can bring any pain from our mothers to God. God is father and mother to us. Knowing our mothers outside of their relationships with us is something that's important for our growth. We are the protagonist of our own stories but remember our moms are the protagonists in their own stories too. Christie graciously encourages us to try not to focus on the little fragments with our mothers but focus on the little details that could shimmer like jewels. Christie and Lisa-Jo mention: "50 Things About My Mother" by Laura Brown and Mary Karr's memoirs which talk all about motherhood with details about how she navigated very difficult experiences with her mother and still found a way for a relationship.

Stefani Reinold is a board-certified psychiatrist, maternal mental health expert, and founder of Not the Typical Mom, a lifestyle brand dedicated to helping moms escape the stereotypes, abolish mother guilt, and live their own authentic mom lives. Out of her own suffering from postpartum depression and losing herself as a new mother, she decided to ditch the details of life and reconnect with the most important part of herself, and now helps fellow mothers do the same! Whether through individual patient care, online coaching, podcasting or public speaking, Stefani encourages mothers to escape the stereotypes, find their hearts, and embrace their real selves so that they can kill it in life, love and business. Episode highlights Dr. Reinold’s own experience of motherhood including her experience of postpartum depression. The loss of control over our body and life during pregnancy including weight gain during pregnancy. Dr. Reinold’s intention not to put on extra weight after her daughter was born and her history with an eating disorder earlier in life. Exhaustion during pregnancy. Dr. Reinold treated motherhood as another thing on her to-do list. Dr. Reinold shares the fact there is not textbook case of postpartum depression. Dr. Reinold’s change of relationship with her husband once her daughter arrived. Dr. Reinold’s experience of feeling like she was a failure as a mother. The link between Dr. Reinold’s feelings of body dissatisfaction and postpartum depression. The lack of social support in Dr. Reinold’s life. The fact that nobody validated Dr. Reinold’s struggles - passing it off as “normal” rather than validating her lived experience - the emotional pain. The first month postpartum is the most challenging but the 3-6 month period tends to be the most challenging time. As high achieving women, we tend to think that we can do it all on our own. Saying I am here to support you opens the door to someone who may be struggling - it opens the crack which slowly over time starts to open up where people can state their needs to that person. Who to reach out to if you feel you need support. What is “normal” - better phrase is “some of your symptoms make perfect sense”. Diet culture and how new mothers can be particularly vulnerable to this. Time limit - if don’t get body back within certain time period. Dieting in postpartum is not normal - we should be eating a lot more in postpartum. Dr. Reinold disliked the feeling of hunger and tried to restrict her calories and this impacted her breastfeeding her daughter. This then fed her feelings of failure - guilt and shame. Dieting was seen as something Dr. Reinold could do “right”. How Dr. Reinold placed so much worth on what she looked like - now she looks at what is healthy weight for her body. Studies looking at mental health and correlation with body dysmorphia. Shift in body aesthetics and hormonal changes - interesting time for many women. Shame that we can’t appreciate all of the changes in the postpartum period. We are grieving loss of our former body and our pre-baby life that we had. We can consider what our new body has been able to give us which our pre-baby life was not able to give us. The extent to which pregnancy depletes us physically, mentally and emotionally. Becoming a mother is the most profound change you will ever go through in life but it is not given the acknowledgement it deserves. Favourite food: Pizza!

We all feel pressured to “do the right thing” when it comes to our careers. This usually ends up causing us to make safe choices that might bring money but take away our time and suppress what we really want to be doing. How do you decide what field you should work in? Is your current career path the result of a safe choice? On this episode, Stefani Reinold shares her journey from being an unhappy student in medical school to building her own business online. I was hoping someone was going to give me an answer, and it took me a couple of years to figure out what my question was to begin with. -Stefani Reinold 3 Things We Learned From This Episode Know what environments you thrive in (10:30-11:26) If you are studying for a degree that you don’t like or working a job that takes all of your energy, it’s time to question your actions. Know from the beginning what your interests are as well as your raw qualities. In what environments do you thrive? Step outside your comfort zone (24:58-26:33) Many people choose risk-free careers even if they aren’t made for them. The money might be good, but waking up every day and going to a job you hate will rob you of your joy. Entrepreneurship is not a risk-free path, but if you learn from your mistakes, you can thrive. Nobody can tell you who you are (17:56-21-10) No coaching program is going to help you unless you know who you are and what you enjoy doing. What price are you willing to pay for your career? How important is the time spent with your family? The answer to this question should help you find an industry you enjoy. Guest Bio- Stefani Reinold’s journey started when she realized she is not a “typical mom.” She’s been through a number a business ventures, and she had her fair share of failures. Stepani left behind the opportunity of having a high-paying career in the medical field to more time to spend with her family and follow her passion for business. Today, she is a successful author and the creator of the Heart Method. She uses her website to educate and help women find themselves and their inner peace. You can find Stefani at Not the Typical Mom.
