96| Top 5 Fears of Moms (and What Actually Helps)- Supermom Short
In this bite-size Halloween episode, Amy explores five very real fears most moms face—I’m not doing enough, I’m messing up my kids, I’ll lose myself in motherhood, something bad will happen to my kids, and I’ll never get it all together—and offers calm, doable practices for each. Expect reframes, “good enough” mantras, rhythm over balance, and grounded safety steps you can use today.
Key Takeaways
Swap perfection for presence: My presence matters more than perfection.
Repair over perfection: Imperfect moments become resilience lessons when we model apology and self-compassion.
Identity evolves: Schedule non‑negotiables that light you up; design a motherhood that fits you.
Turn anxiety into action: Safety plans + problem-solving; then release what you can’t control.
Trade “daily balance” for seasonal rhythm; ask for help, use small resets.
Highlighted Quotes
“Fear will always show up where love lives—walk with it, don’t let it drive the car.”
“You cannot be brave if you’re not afraid.”
“My presence matters more than perfection.”
