Sierra Buck: Becoming a first-time mom during the pandemic

Love this episode? Send me a message here!


Sierra Buck is the mom of an absurdly good-natured baby, the
owner of an unforgivably spoiled puppy, and the wife of the
kindest man on Earth. She is a budding writer who recently
graduated with her MFA in Creative Nonfiction and has become a
professional rejection letter recipient on her quest to getting
published. Because she became a mom while in grad school *during*
the pandemic, she is basically a hermit, and is going a little
crazy. 

Sierra and I do a deep dive into what it was like to become a
first time mom during the pandemic and what a unique and
difficult situation it was for women. We talk about making
difficult decisions, feeling isolated, fear of the unknown,
giving birth without your support people,  dealing with
postpartum in a vacuum, and how the difficulties of the last 2-3
years has shaped her as a woman and a mom. 

If you became a mom in 2020-2021, this episode is for you. It's
honest, affirming, encouraging, and holds space for both grief
and growth.
