Episode 12 - Finding balance as a STAH & working mom
This week I dive into a current struggle I’m facing. I talk about my lack of balance, as a working and stay at home mom. I discuss how I “cope” or struggle to and having tunnel vision when it comes to facing hardship. I also unpack some of the emotions that have come with feeling overwhelmed. This episode has no advice or answers to these hard times I am facing, but this episode is from the heart and helped me sort through some of my thoughts and emotions. I know I am not the only one having a hard time with this and hope this helps more working moms feel less alone. 🤍

Episode 5 - Ditch the mom guilt
On this weeks episode I talk about the dreaded and oh so common, mom guilt. As a first time mom I let the mom guilt eat me alive and ultimately control my decision making, but not anymore. Now as a seasoned mom of two, this is something I of course continue to struggle with, but have become well equipped with tools and mantras to handle those emotions when they come up and ultimately ditch the shame we feel when putting ourselves first. I discuss the importance of setting boundaries, for yourself and your kids in order to be the best mom you can be and why it is so important to prioritize yourself! Everything we do is for our families and that includes taking care of US.
