Do you feel like motherhood leaves little room for joy or spontaneity? Between work, laundry, and making sure everyone else is okay, play often gets pushed to the sidelines. But play isn't just for kids—it's something moms need, too.

In this solo mini jolt, Whitney shares why play is essential for moms in the messy, stress-filled middle of motherhood. She explains how play feels different in an adult body than it does for kids, and why it's such a powerful way to ease stress, release tension, and spark fresh ideas. You'll also hear simple ways to weave more fun into your life without adding to your to-do list, along with a practice you can try this week to reset your energy through play.

If you've been feeling stretched thin or craving more lightness, this conversation is your reminder that play is not frivolous—it's a lifeline back to presence and aliveness. Tune in now and see how play can change the way you show up in motherhood and in your own life.
