Failing Motherhood
If you're riddled with mom guilt, your temper scares you, you're terrified you're screwing up your kids and are afraid to admit any of those things out loud....this podcast is for you. Hosted by Danielle Bettmann, parenting coach for families with 1-10-year-old strong-willed kids, Failing Motherhood is where shame-free vulnerability meets breakthroughs.
Every other week is a storytelling interview about one mom's raw and honest experience of growth that leads to new perspectives and practical strategies and every other week solo episodes focus on actionable insight into parenting your deeply feeling, highly sensitive, *spicy* child.
Here, we normalize the struggle, share openly about our insecurities, and rally around small wins and truths. We hope to convince you you're not alone and YOU are the parent your kids need. We hope you see yourself, hear your story, and find hope and healing.
Welcome to Failing Motherhood. You belong here!

29. Understanding Trauma with Melissa Corkum
International adoption. Big T versus little t trauma. Self-Compassion. Healthy Boundaries.
Melissa Corkum has the parenting certifications and life experiences to back up the wisdom she shares in this episode. Not only does she give us a vulnerable peek into her most chaotic & tumultuous years of adoptions in her family, but she shares the biggest lessons she needed to learn as she came alongside her kids.
We discuss how the pandemic is also a source of trauma for all of us right now and how to bring these needed shifts in perspective to ALL of our relationships. No one is excluded from the mindsets she shares.
We recorded this back in July, when she mentions "we're at hopefully the tail end of a quarantine in a global pandemic" ...little did we know... SIGH.
