Previously the Small Jar Podcast

This episode is deeply personal and provocative—because it’s about the question so many moms ask themselves: Can I really have it all? As a mom, professional, and woman in midlife, I reflect on the career decisions, mindset traps, and societal narratives that shaped my path—and challenge the belief that we can’t pursue purpose, parenting, and peace simultaneously.

Whether you’re a mom of teens, navigating college transitions, or stepping into the empty nest, you might feel caught between guilt, ambition, and the desire to reclaim yourself. We unpack the emotional toll of parenting, the pressure to always “do more,” and the mindset that keeps many of us stuck in cycles of overthinking, resentment, and self-doubt.

In this episode, I’ll guide you to:

Rethink what “having it all” really means

Let go of old beliefs about motherhood, success, and self-worth

Understand the impact of emotional regulation and mindset on your choices

This is about finding the courage to redefine fulfillment on your own terms—and taking back authorship of your story. If you’ve ever wrestled with guilt, anxiety, or the quiet ache of lost purpose, this episode offers reflection and hope for what comes next.
