Ep. 4 Reaching Out for Support in Early Motherhood with Kori Zornes

Published: July 28, 2022, 2:43 a.m.

Today, I\u2019m interviewing a coaching client and friend of mine, Kori Zornes (@herwanderlustsoul) about her transition into motherhood, and her decision to reach out for support during this transformational time in her life.

For many new mothers, the first few months after baby are a blur, and Kori\u2019s experience was no exception. Through all the chaos, she\u2019s been relearning about herself. Who she is, what her values are, what she wants out of motherhood and partnership, and how she wants her future to look with her growing family.\xa0

In this episode, we discuss why it\u2019s so important to reach out for support no matter where you\u2019re at in life, why Kori chose me to coach her through this time, and all the beautiful things she\u2019s learned about herself and her relationship along the way. Kori's commitment to self-development has had a ripple effect throughout all aspects of her life. I\u2019m honored that she chose me to support her through it and excited to continue celebrating her future growth!
