Wanting a break doesn’t mean you don’t love your kids. 

It means you’re human — and humans need rest. 🌙

 Let’s be really clear: Intrusive thoughts ≠ danger.

They don’t mean you’ll act on them. They mean your nervous system is overwhelmed.

You’re not broken. You’re not dangerous, you’re scared, and you deserve support.

💬"We shrink our dreams down to match what we think we deserve. But we are deserving of whatever it is that brings you peace and brings you joy and brings you comfort."

If you are struggling with the stigma or shame of navigating the guilt of asking for more, our latest episode is for you.

Motherhood can shift friendships in ways we don’t expect. Your time, identity, and energy change. Some connections will fade, others will deepen.

It’s okay to grieve and grow at the same time.

More than 80% of new parents experience “baby blues”—but when it lasts more than two weeks, it could be something more.

Postpartum depression isn’t weakness. It’s common, and treatable.

This Thanksgiving, let’s remember that connection doesn't have to be loud.

If today feels heavy, or your table holds an empty seat, know that you are not alone.

Gratitude is about embracing the quiet moments and the people who accept us exactly as we are. 💜

I swore I would never be a van parent.

But shifting from our Honda Fit to a minivan ended up being a deeply personal lesson in self-worth and shame.

If you have ever struggled with self-worth or shrunk your own dreams, you need to hear this episode.

🚗 Crying in the car is normal.

If you’ve cried in your car between errands or daycare drop-off, you’re not alone. 

That release is real. That feeling is valid.

It wasn’t really about the bottles.

It was about the weight of doing everything when you’re running on fumes.

Sometimes, the smallest things carry the heaviest emotional load, and that doesn’t make you weak. It makes you human.

We drove 25+ hours to get to Disney. 

My three-year-old melted down every morning. I only cried twice.

It was still magic. ✨
