No Sick Days is a weekly podcast hosted by a therapist and a gynecologist- two moms navigating the messy, meaningful middle of womanhood. They bring clinical insight and real-life honesty to conversations about mental health, hormones, motherhood, identity, and everything your group chat can’t quite cover.
It's smart, relatable, a little irreverent, and always real-because when you're holding it all together, there’s no such thing as a day off.
“Enjoy every minute!” is advice almost every mom has heard and it is a cultural lie that leaves so many women feeling guilty when motherhood is hard.
In this episode of No Sick Days, Dana Lewisohn, LCSW, and Dr. Roshni Patel unpack the myth that good moms should cherish every moment of motherhood. From the exhaustion and mental load to the overstimulation, frustration, and moments when you just need everyone to leave you alone, we’re talking about the parts of motherhood that don’t make it into the highlight reel.
Because you can love your kids fiercely and still find parenting incredibly hard. You can be grateful for your family and still need a break. And you can be a great mom without enjoying every single minute.
Let’s ditch the guilt, challenge the expectations, and make room for the full, messy, complicated experience of motherhood.
🎧 Listen, watch, and join the conversation!
Subscribe to No Sick Days for honest conversations about motherhood, mental health, women's health, and all the cultural myths we’re ready to stop believing.

No Sick Days!: Season 3 Trailer
This season, we’re unpacking the messages women have been taught to believe about their bodies, their brains, their emotions, and what it means to be “doing enough.” From “Your body is always a project” to “If you need help, you’re failing,” we’re challenging the cultural expectations that keep women exhausted, overwhelmed, and constantly trying to fix themselves.
It’s honest, sometimes uncomfortable, and always with a healthy dose of humor.
Because maybe the problem isn’t you. Maybe it’s the messages you’ve been handed.

When Women Feel Invisible: The Hidden Cost of Being Dismissed
For our Season 2 finale, we're talking about something many women have experienced but don't always know how to name: those moments when you feel overlooked, dismissed, or invisible.
After a recent experience at a doctor's appointment sparked a bigger conversation, Dana and Roshni explore the subtle ways women are treated differently, why we often second-guess our own perceptions, and what it means to advocate for ourselves and model that advocacy for the next generation.
Because maybe it's not all in your head, and maybe you're not the only one noticing.
