Responding to Life: Talking Health, Fertility and Parenthood


Oct 25, 2023

On the newest episode of Responding to Life, I am joined by Linda Fruits, the content creator behind the relateable motherhood account @fruitsofmotherhood. Her mission in life is to normalize the sweet, bitter and bittersweet Fruits of Motherhood, with a side of humor.

This year, Linda wrote, designed and illustrated her first book called, The Mom Life.

Linda’s content on social media is bite sized, and her book is a full course dinner. Equal parts sass and inclusiveness, The Mom Life explores the highs and lows of new motherhood, tackling taboo subjects like losing interest in your partner, not immediately loving your baby, and imposter syndrome.

Linda’s book will be a must-have for every new mother trying to maneuver the realities of daily life with small children. The Mom Life creates a safe space and a vital contrast to the deluge of information and picture-perfect parenthood accounts popping up across social media. Full of powerful and empowering advice for women.

In addition, Linda hosts a new podcast called Fruits of Motherhood and now offers transformational motherhood life coaching. She helps moms make meaningful changes in their lives and overcome the guilt about doing so. As a coach, she’ll help you love the mother you already are and find the empowerment to move towards a more fulfilling life because taking care of you, is taking care of your children’s mommy.

On this episode, you’ll hear from Linda about:

  • Motherhood as a metamorphosis

  • Unrealistic motherhood expectations and how to challenge them

  • The hardest lesson she’s learned as a mother

  • Burnout, owning our truth, and creating boundaries
