About Mind Your Mama

Welcome to Mind Your Mama – the podcast where motherhood meets real talk, belly laughs, and soul-deep connection. This is your weekly reminder that you, mama, are a rockstar (even if you’re rocking yesterday’s yoga pants and cold coffee). Here, we’re all about giving moms the space to feel seen, heard, and unapologetically valued. Whether you’re knee-deep in diapers, dodging teenage eye rolls, or just wondering how on earth you’ll ever fold that mountain of laundry, this podcast is for you. We’ll dive into the peaks and valleys, the hilarious chaos, and the unforgettable moments of motherhood with honest conversations, relatable stories, and the occasional ugly cry (it’s a judgment-free zone, promise). Together, we’ll uncover the beauty in the mess, the clarity in the madness, and the strength to embrace a life filled with meaning and connection. We'll talk to moms from all walks of life, learning from their experiences, challenges, and the pivotal moments that led them to rediscover fulfillment amidst the chaos. So grab your favorite snack (or whatever the kids haven’t already raided), coffee, or wine ( no judgement here! ) pop in your earbuds, and let’s tackle this wild ride called motherhood—one episode at a time. Mind Your Mama is more than a podcast; it’s your weekly dose of inspiration, laughter, and a big ol' hug in audio form. Because, mama, you are worthy. You are amazing. And together, we’ve got this.

   75. Who Told You That About Yourself? Breaking Limiting Beliefs, Self-Doubt & Negative Self-Talk

   What if the things you believe about yourself… aren’t actually true? What if “I’m not smart enough,” “I’m too much,” “I’m lazy,” “I’m not capable,” or “I’m just not good at this” aren’t facts at all? What if they’re stories you picked up somewhere along the way and repeated so many times that they started to feel like your identity? In this episode of Mind Your Mama, I sit down with Emily Erb from the Stop It Podcast for one of those conversations that starts with limiting beliefs and somehow ends up touching damn near everything: confidence, self-worth, motherhood, perfectionism, procrastination, people pleasing, childhood conditioning, negative self-talk, and the stories we carry into adulthood without even realizing it. We talk about where these beliefs come from, why knowing better doesn’t always mean believing better, and what happens when you finally start questioning the voice in your head that keeps telling you who you are allowed to be. Because at some point, you have to ask: Who told me this was true about me? And maybe more importantly… Why am I still letting it run my life? This is not a quick “just think positive” conversation. It’s honest, funny, uncomfortable, personal, and the kind of episode that may have you catching yourself halfway through thinking, Oh shit… I do that too. And by the end, we get into something I think most women forget far too often: You already have an unbelievable amount of evidence that you can do hard things. Maybe it’s time to start believing the evidence. Listen to the full episode wherever you get your podcasts. In this episode: limiting beliefs, self-doubt, negative self-talk, self-worth, confidence, motherhood identity, perfectionism, people pleasing, childhood conditioning, mindset, overcoming self-doubt, personal growth, subconscious beliefs, and breaking old patterns.

   74. I Became a Mom Before I Knew Who I Was: Dr. Chiquita Mack on Losing Yourself & Finding Your Way Back

   What happens when motherhood comes before you’ve even had the chance to figure out who you are? In this episode of Mind Your Mama, I sit down with Dr. Chiquita Mack for a conversation about motherhood, identity, depression, marriage, ambition, and the parts of becoming a mom that women are often expected to quietly carry. Chiquita shares pieces of her journey from becoming a young mother while chasing huge dreams to eventually realizing she had completely lost herself somewhere along the way. But this isn’t a polished “look how successful everything became” story. We talk about the lonely parts. The resentment. The invisible load. The moments when you’re technically functioning but know something inside of you isn’t okay. And what can happen when you finally stop pretending you’re fine and start listening to yourself. If you’ve ever looked at your life and thought, “I love my family… but where the hell did I go?” this conversation is for you. We get into: Losing your identity inside motherhood Maternal mental health and depression The invisible mental load women carry Marriage, resentment, and asking for help Why motherhood can uncover things you thought you already healed Learning to hear yourself again Building a life that includes the woman underneath all the roles And yes, we also talk about the messy, unpretty, occasionally poop-filled reality of raising kids because apparently no motherhood conversation is complete without it. Listen now and come hang out with us.

   73. Shared Responsibility Is Foreplay: Sex, Motherhood & Feeling Hot Again

   I have spent way too much of my life asking, “Do I look sexy?” instead of asking the much better question: “Do I actually FEEL sexy?” Because apparently having three kids, boobs that have been through a breast reduction and then motherhood, a stomach with its own personality, and being touched by children approximately 47,000 times a day will really make you rethink some shit. So we’re talking about sex. Really talking about it. The body image spiral. Feeling touched out. Watching yourself during sex instead of actually enjoying it. Why shared responsibility is basically foreplay now. Why emotional safety does NOT mean boring sex. And why your partner cannot reconnect you to a body you’ve completely disconnected from yourself. Also: one-sided sex? We’re grown. Absolutely not. Maybe you don’t need to “get your old body back.” Maybe you need to figure out who the hell this version of you is now — what she wants, what turns her on, what shuts her down, and what makes her feel hot as fuck. Because your body changed. Your desires might have too. And neither one means something is wrong with you. Your body is still yours. Your pleasure is still yours. And yes, you can have really fucking good sex in the body you have right now.
