07. Having kids is AWFUL! Here's why

Welcome back to The Mama Circle podcast. This episode dives into a topic that’s spicy, controversial, and might make some listeners squirm: why having kids (and parenthood in general) is sometimes awful.

I’m not here to scare anyone off parenthood or bash motherhood, but to get real about the tough parts no one talks about enough. From constant messes to sleep deprivation, shifting identities to endless explaining, this episode opens up the dialogue about the harder truths of parenting. And don’t worry. Next week, we’ll explore the joys and beauty of motherhood. For now, let’s dive into the challenges.
