In episode 12 of the Midlife Renewal Podcast, hosts Jess and Amy unpack the exhaustion of motherhood, the pressure of overbooked family schedules, and the hidden resentments that can come from complex childhoods — especially growing up in ministry. They candidly discuss anxiety, mental health, medication, coping strategies, and setting boundaries to reclaim peace in midlife.

Through honest stories and practical encouragement, they explore how healing, self-acceptance, and small changes can help women move from overwhelm to a renewed sense of purpose and joy.
