Ladies, muscle is your secret weapon! 🧬

Mental Wealth, Leave a New Legacy

​

Ever feel like you’re drowning but can’t bring yourself to ask for help? You’re not the only one. In this episode of Mental Wealth, Laura Wood gets real about why so many moms stay quiet when they need support the most. From the fear of being judged to the pressure to be a “supermom,” Laura uncovers the hidden reasons moms push through alone…even when it feels impossible.

​

​

We talk about what it’s like to grow up in families or communities where asking for help is never shown, why guilt and high expectations keep moms silent, and how not having a support system can make you feel invisible. Laura also opens up about how mental health stigma, old wounds, and just being too tired to ask can keep moms stuck in survival mode. Plus, what do you do when you’re not even sure what kind of help to ask for?

​

​
