Question
What is Katy Huie Harrison's approach to setting postpartum visitor boundaries?
Answer
In the episode titled "Mom Burnout: Boundaries Can Save You, From Postpartum & Beyond," I discuss the importance of setting and maintaining boundaries and expectations with your partner and support network, especially during the early days of motherhood. This includes the postpartum period.
Creating these boundaries can help prevent burnout by rebalancing domestic labor and giving you back your time, energy, and love of life. It's never too late to start creating these systems, and if you're in the early days before burnout hits, you have an amazing opportunity to start now.
Once you've established these boundaries and expectations, you'll find you actually have some extra time on your hands. This is what I call "Unicorn Space," a mythical time for yourself that doesn't exist, but I teach you how to create it anyway.
