1. How Did I Even Get Here?

Welcome to the first episode of Momplex, a podcast hosted by Scottie, a southern belle who was born and raised in New Orleans. Scottie is a stay-at-home mom to 3 kids and lives on the West Coast. Momplex is geared towards moms like you, to help you step into your confidence and reconnect to yourself and the person you were before you had kids. Being a mom at this very point in your life is a magical stage, and you should be so proud of how far you’ve come.

You'll hear:

• Scottie gets candid and explains how for a long time she was neglecting herself, and her own needs, dedicating herself entirely to her children. While her family is the most important thing in the world to her, over time Scottie realized she was becoming a serial people pleaser and this was starting to impact her negatively. She explains the catalyst that brought her to this realization (4:53)
• After dedicating her life to her kids, Scottie explains how the pandemic forced her to face her own self as an individual. Deep down she’d lost herself, and she knows this is common amongst many moms! She discusses how she got out of this rut and why it is important to be a person, outside of being a mom (9:15)
• Scottie shares her journey to self-realization, and how her new job enabled her to connect with other moms, ask deep questions and create her own world. (16:15)
• After her epiphany in 2020, Scottie explains how she heard this voice inside her head that encouraged her to step outside her comfort zone and discover new aspects about herself (19:58)
• Scottie explains why becoming an individual and growing into your own self makes you a better mom and human (24:24)
