Imagine your worst fear. Okay, now imagine that it’s all around you and you can’t get away from it.

That’s what my guest on this episode deals with every day.

Caroline Broadbent is my guest on this episode. She is the mom of a toddler and she lives with OCD and severe anxiety.

Caroline is funny, vulnerable, brave, and engaging as she shares her eye-opening story. And we just had time to skim the surface!

We talk about

• How her OCD and anxiety affected her while she was pregnant and after her son was born
• Her thoughts on “mom guilt”
• How she hit rock bottom and what finally pulled her out of the darkest place imaginable

More about the Gotcha Mama Podcast:

The Gotcha Mama Podcast is where we share honest stories of the joys and struggles of mom-life with young kids.

Each week host Amanda Bennett interviews a mom about topics ranging from awkwardly making mom friends, to chasing BIG dreams and finding purpose, to managing crippling anxiety and depression. You’ll hear stories from moms like you with the purpose to inspire, encourage, and entertain you.

We understand that motherhood can be lonely and make you doubt yourself. The Gotcha Mama Podcast exists to let you know that you are not alone as a busy mom of young kiddos, no matter what you’re dealing with.

The show is all about tearing down our insecurities as moms by honestly sharing our stories and a little of what we’ve learned along the way.

We believe it’s a whole lot better riding the rollercoaster of motherhood together!
