The Dark Hour, Generational Trauma, and Putting Ourselves First with Lindsay Roselle

Project: Mom Podcast

What if we put ourselves first on our list of priorities?

For some parents, this might be a crazy or even slightly controversial idea! But for today’s guest, Lindsay Roselle, it has made ALL the difference in her ability to give her best to her family, her work, and even herself.

Her reasoning? She and her partner are the ones who have to shoulder the load. If they’re not feeling strong, then the whole system won’t work.

Lindsay is a growth and performance coach for high-achieving women looking to find harmony between their desire to succeed and their devotion to motherhood. She’s also the host of the MotherLoad Podcast and a mom to two little boys.

Lindsay and I talk about generational trauma (including how she was confronted with this at a plant medicine retreat); her morning journaling practice, the Dark Hour; and how prioritizing ourselves first can make all the difference in how our system works.
