If you've ever caught yourself daydreaming about escaping, just getting in the car and driving away, even for a moment—you're not alone. In this episode, I’m getting real about the emotional weight many of us carry as moms of kids with disabilities.

I’m talking about the messy, unspoken truth: the guilt, the shame, the pressure to be everything to everyone, and the deep exhaustion that makes you want to tap out. I’ll walk you through why your nervous system feels like it’s under attack even when nothing’s technically wrong, and why that feeling of “I can’t do this anymore” makes total sense.

I’ll also break down why therapy might have helped you process the past—but coaching can give you the tools to move forward. This is your invitation to get out of survival mode and into something better, not perfect, not Instagram-worthy—just real.
