This Hive Howls
As a young mom of 2 wading her way through the picture-perfectly-curated-lives of moms on the internet, Julie is tired of feeling lost and alone as she struggles with her mental-health while being a new parent. Hi, I'm Julie, mom, teacher, interior designer, and author of the blog This Hive. This podcast - This Hive Howls - is paying homage to the moms, dads, and parents of the world who feel like they don't have a voice or a space to complain about the daily hardships of parenthood! So HOWL along with me, as I share my experiences as a parent who is growing and breaking generational curses, as well as re-parenting myself through therapy so I can be the best mom I can for my kids!
