About the Event
Between managing schedules, emotions, and the constant to-do list, parenting comes with an often unseen mental load that can take a toll on personal wellbeing. This panel will explore the implications parents and caregivers often face in silence especially when it comes to maintaining their sense of passion and confidence amidst the daily grind. We’ll discuss the importance of addressing stigma around asking for help, self-care, and setting boundaries, and dive into strategies for lightening the mental load, reigniting personal fulfillment, and building a strong, supportive network. Featuring:
- Paige Bellenbaum, Founding Director & Chief External Relations Officer at The Motherhood Center of NY
- Grace Bastidas, Editor-in-Chief of PARENTS
- Kier Gaines, Licensed Therapist, Mental Health Advocate, and Speaker
- Moderated by Rachel Berman, SVP of Verywell Mind
