Book excerpt: Relationship expert and counselor Dr. Morgan Cutlip equips mothers with five simple steps for combating the chaos of motherhood, defeating feelings of guilt and inadequacy, and deeply loving their kids without neglecting or losing themselves. With her advanced degrees in human development and counseling psychology, Dr. Morgan Cutlip thought she was overqualified for motherhood. But after her first child was born, she was blindsided by the loss of freedom, increased responsibilities, pervasive fear and anxiety, and consuming guilt. Determined to find a solution, she dug into her training and current research to form an easy-to-follow, five-step process for mothers to use, one that shows them how to love their kids without losing themselves. In this compelling new book, Dr. Cutlip urges moms to mother themselves like they mother their kids, applying their skills as master caregivers not only to their children but also to themselves. The five-step plan guides them through complicated and contradictory messages about motherhood, helps them combat negative feelings and thoughts, and shows them how to recalibrate amid demanding schedules and myriad needs, connecting with themselves in a way that will transform the whole family. Today's moms are burned out, and self-care platitudes do little to help them navigate the demands of motherhood. This powerful self-help book delivers a path for moms to care for themselves without forsaking their kids or their treasured role as mothers.
