About the Book

Read by the author.

Motherhood is hard—there’s very little that prepares you for it. But you’re a great mom, and you are capable of believing that.

In A Mom Is Born Rachael Elmore—a licensed counselor as well as a mother who experienced postpartum depression—comes alongside moms with the practical tools and biblical wisdom they need to be the connected and emotionally healthy mothers they long to be. Using Scripture, therapeutic insights, and stories from her own mothering journey, Rachael helps you to

  • apply proven techniques—like Elmore’s time-tested Postpartum Wellness Plan—to manage the new emotions of motherhood,
  • stop intrusive thoughts and triggers from stealing your joy,
  • restore hope and joy by breaking the bondage of past wounds and trauma,
  • repair your heart and your body by discovering the secret to implementing small acts of self-care, and
  • rise above the pull of perfectionism by learning to say “No, thank you,” to comparison.

 

Most of new motherhood will be focused on your baby. But this book isn’t about your baby. This book is about you. Because who you are and who you are becoming in this season matters. God has you and you’ve got this—even if you don’t know it yet.

Customizable Wellness Plans, The Motherhood Vow, exercises, and diagrams are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.
