Every day, millions of women struggle in their new (or existing) roles as mothers. No matter how much a woman desires to be a mother, the journey of motherhood can be scary and challenging.

Dayna M. Kurtz, LCSW, author, and motherhood expert, offers heartfelt tips for making the most of being a woman and a mom. In a world that often diminishes the value of motherhood and the huge effort it requires, let’s pause to give mothers the support and credit they deserve.
