I know firsthand how messy, overwhelming, and isolating the early years of motherhood can feel. I’ve been the mum who googled every little thing at 2 a.m., wondering if I was doing it all wrong. I’ve been the mum who lost herself completely in the needs of her kids, only to realise one day that I barely recognised the woman in the mirror. And I’ve been the mum who thought everyone else had it together while I was quietly drowning.
