How to Be the Mum You ­Want to Be

How to Be the Mum You Want to Be by Anna Mathur is a compassionate and empowering guide written to help mothers navigate the emotional ups and downs of parenting while staying connected to who they are. Drawing from her experience as a psychotherapist and mum of three, Mathur provides heartfelt advice, relatable anecdotes, and powerful mindset tools for managing stress, guilt, comparison, and self-doubt.

This book is not about becoming the “perfect” parent—it’s about finding confidence in your own instincts, embracing imperfection, and nurturing your own well-being alongside your child’s. With practical exercises, reflection prompts, and encouragement throughout, it supports mums in reconnecting with their values and redefining what motherhood means to them.

Warm, honest, and deeply reassuring, this is a must-read for any mother seeking balance, peace, and self-compassion in their parenting journey.
