Welcome to the Greatest Hits Summer Series! We’re revisiting some of our favorite episodes from the first year of the podcast and sharing Leanna’s take on them from her current vantage point.

On this week’s episode, Leanna shares how she used to feel like she was failing at everything, despite her accomplishments, due to five factors: perfectionism, all or nothing thinking, people pleasing, valuing work ethic as identity, and recurring negative thoughts. Unfortunately, many working moms can relate to these experiences, which is largely due to a broken system that fails to support working mothers.

To combat these negative feelings, Leanna recommends noticing and challenging those negative thoughts and emotions. It's also important to seek support from others who understand the unique challenges that come with being a working mom. By doing so, you can feel less alone and create a more balanced and fulfilling life for yourself and your family.
