It's also a journey that is fraught with judgment, criticism and pressure.Many women struggle with the idea of perfectionism - wanting to be the best mother possible for their children.

This pressure to be perfect can lead to anxiety and depression in mothers.This segment will discuss five ways motherhood changes us as women and how we negotiate it as women in today's society.
