In this episode Sarah chats with Hannah from Spark Your Growth and details her job as a trauma therapist and owning her own practice. She goes over a typical day for her, how she ended up in this career, and her time in Labrador. She also chats about how Spark Your Growth was actually started from a covid blog - similar to this podcast!

Getting into counselling or therapy can be overwhelming so if you feel that way, this episode will help give you some tips. Ending with a book recommendation, and of course some advice.

Stay tuned for the next bi-weekly episode, continuing my pregnancy journey and talking all about the first trimester @NewfoundHappyHour

In the first episode of season 5 Sarah goes over some plans for the year - which now include giving birth and becoming a mother! She tells the story of her unplanned pregnancy and hiding it over the holidays.

"But wait, wasn't she always openly on the fence about having a baby?"

Yes, yes she was. She shares past thoughts on being childfree, and how she came to the decision of feeling ready enough. This is a full thought process of wrapping her head around becoming a parent, and how doing so does not mean she has to live a certain way, and how the ideas we have of our mothers and grandmothers motherhood does not have to be the same. A lot of this has to do with having the right partner!

Stay tuned for the next bi-weekly episode with Hannah from Spark Your Growth all about getting started with therapy/counselling
