Sometimes I find the conversations of other moms boring. Is there something wrong with me?

No Paula. There is nothing wrong with you. In fact, the main reason moms come to life coaching is to deepen and broaden their focus. At first, new moms are very involved in the minute details of their babies’ lives. And usually other moms are the only ones interested in talking about it all.

But in time, the superficial details of parenting can get very tedious. Often mothers don’t know where to turn for more stimulation. So I suggest you get some books on personal development, or other subjects that interest you. Check out websites on topics that are more meaningful to you. Pursue a former passion by finding groups to join. Sometimes you have to put in effort and energy to find people who inspire you and who you enjoy.

The most important thing is to trust how you feel and find a way to meet your needs. Good luck.
