Finding the Right Support to Rejuvenate New Mothers with Tessia Watson

Moms can find all kinds of information and recommendations on how to care for their newborns. But there’s something about new motherhood that not many sources are talking about, and my guest Tessia Watson is trying to bridge the gap.

Tessia is an author, spiritual teacher, and devoted mom of two boys with wisdom infused from her multicultural upbringing. Her life’s work is advocating for and facilitating rejuvenating self-care for new moms to help make parenting an enjoyable, sustainable experience.

In this episode of the Words of Love podcast, you’ll learn about the impact of being a new mom struggling to keep a sense of herself and initiatives that can support new moms in self-care. You’ll also discover why the potential of artificial intelligence as a parenting aid might not be as scary as many think, how you can use your own childhood to help you become a better parent, and more!

Connect with Tessia Watson

As a single mother of two young boys, Tessia understands the challenges modern parents face. Striving to find the perfect balance between family life and personal well-being, she discovered the importance of self-care and rejuvenation. This realization led her to establish and run for 7 years Les Petits Bellots, a bilingual childcare program providing flexible and short-term childcare solutions in French and English for children aged 6 months to 4 years. In her debut book, she shares her personal journey as a single parent and imparts valuable insights gained along the way. She firmly believes that when mothers prioritize their own well-being, they become optimal parents, ultimately fostering happiness and success in their children, and this is the focus of her work that she deeply wants to share.
