Ever feel like you’re doing everything right and still somehow failing? You packed the lunch, signed the forms, remembered spirit day, and even made dinner (sort of)… yet you're still lying in bed wondering if you’re a terrible mom because you didn’t go to your kid’s dog’s graduation ceremony at PetSmart. Yeah. Same.

In this episode, we’re blowing up the "perfect mom" myth—because it’s not just outdated, it’s straight-up toxic. You’ll hear real, hilarious, and painfully relatable stories of moms stuck in the guilt loop, and learn how resentment might actually be your brain's way of whisper-yelling, “Stop doing that!”

If you’re tired of chasing gold stars for tasks no one notices, fantasizing about running away to a hotel just to sleep uninterrupted, or if the phrase “school coordination” makes you twitchy, hit play. There is another way—and spoiler alert: it involves more rest, more joy, and a lot fewer emergency contact forms.
