Experience Motherhood

In this empowering episode, I’m joined by Stefanie Adler, Certified Nutrition Consultant and women’s hormone and fertility expert, to talk all things motherhood, hormones, and trusting the wisdom of your body.

We explore how moms can feel more in tune with their health amidst the chaos of daily life—from realistic swaps to reduce toxins at home, to cycle-syncing, blood sugar regulation, and shifting away from the pressure to always be “on.” Stefanie shares mindset shifts and practical strategies to help moms feel more grounded, energized, and empowered, especially when navigating fertility struggles, postpartum healing, or chronic symptoms that have been dismissed by traditional medicine.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by your health, stuck in survival mode, or unsure where to start—this episode will leave you with hope, clarity, and encouragement to reclaim your wellness one small step at a time.

We talk about:

• How cycle-syncing and blood sugar balance can support moms’ energy, mood, and hormones
• Simple, doable ways to reduce toxins and create a healthier home
• How to reconnect with your body’s wisdom and feel more empowered in your wellness journey

In this heartfelt episode, I sit down with Kari A. Baker—author, speaker, and founder of KIND Families, a community for those who love Kids with Invisible Neurological Differences. We talk honestly about the pain of letting go of the life you once envisioned and the beauty that can unfold when you learn to embrace what is. She opens up about the raw, real challenges of parenting a child with autism, how she processed the news, and the unexpected joy she’s found in seeing her son fully for who he is.

Whether you’re a mom navigating a diagnosis, feeling unequipped, or just needing a reminder that you’re not alone—this conversation will encourage you to keep going and trust that you are the exact mom your child needs.

We talk about:

1. Processing an autism diagnosis and how it reshapes your view of motherhood
2. Letting go of the life you imagined and embracing the one you have
3. Finding purpose and strength through your child’s unique journey

Motherhood has a way of humbling us, doesn’t it? In this episode, I sit down with my friend Brynn Hadley to talk about the stark contrast between the mom we imagined we’d be and the one we actually are. Spoiler alert: reality is messier, funnier, and often way better than we ever expected.

Brynn shares what she once believed about motherhood that now makes her laugh, the moment she realized she had to parent each of her kids differently, and the expectations she had to release for her own sanity. We also dive into mom guilt, the pressure to parent a certain way, and what truly matters (and what really doesn’t).

Whether you’re in the thick of motherhood or just starting out, this conversation will remind you that you’re not alone—and that the mom you are is exactly who your kids need.

Listen in as we chat about:
✨ Letting go of unrealistic expectations in motherhood
✨ The guilt of showing up differently for each child—and how to handle it
✨ Adjusting to new stages of parenting as kids grow
✨ The surprising (and unexpected) parts of motherhood

Many women go years—sometimes decades—without realizing they have ADHD. Often, it’s only after their own child is diagnosed that they start recognizing the signs in themselves. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Lauren Rance, a licensed psychologist specializing in ADHD, anxiety, and relationship challenges, to talk about the unique ways ADHD presents in women and why it so often goes undiagnosed.

We explore the impact of a late diagnosis, how masking plays a role, and why so many moms struggle with shame around executive functioning challenges. Dr. Rance shares ADHD-friendly strategies to help moms feel less overwhelmed, reduce decision fatigue, and redefine success on their own terms.

In This Episode, We Cover:
✅ How ADHD presents differently in women and why it’s often missed
✅ The emotional impact of a late diagnosis, especially in motherhood
✅ Practical, ADHD-friendly strategies to reduce overwhelm and decision fatigue
✅ How to shift from self-criticism to self-compassion as a mom with ADHD
