Welcome to SEASON 5 of The Whole Mama Show!!! It's been a little minute, but we're back with a slightly different format and more frequent schedule. Instead of 10 episodes per season and guests in every episode, we'll be having more of a mix of everything. We also have a brand new Whole Mama couch, so check that out on our socials and YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/@thewholemamaza-----This first episode is our host, Aisha Mchumo O'Reilly, was inspired by a podcast episode by Michelle Obama who interviewed her husband Barack Obama. In the conversation she shared how she had to let go of always doing everything for their children. She let go so she could rest, recover and her husband could be an engaged and hands on dad. So many of us have placed our value on being mothers that we would do everything at our detriment to keep that narrative going.WATCH the episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/1Q6ZcWsU_HE?si=3bQU06qBrMyqv1AuFOLLOW The Whole Mama on social media: Instagram & TikTok: @thewholemamazaYouTube: www.youtube.com/@thewholemamaza-----The Whole Mama Show is created and hosted by Aisha Mchumo O'Reilly, a creative entrepreneur, digital content creator, wife, and mother of three children who is passionate about telling the story of motherhood.Across all cultures, our experiences as mothers have been shamed or ignored.
