June 11, 2025 268: How to Communicate Your Needs as a Mom with Author Mara Glatzel
Today, we’re revisiting a popular episode from the vault–How to Communicate Your Needs as a Mom with Mara Glatzel, author of Needy.
As moms, we’re often socialized to be selfless—to put everyone else’s needs above our own, leaving us on the backburner. But when we deplete ourselves and neglect our own needs, it often leads to mental health struggles, resentment, relationship conflict, and burnout. Unlearning that socializing and discovering how to communicate your needs isn’t always easy.
On today’s vault episode, Mara and I discuss why moms deserve to be a priority and how they can take responsibility for their own needs.

January 22, 2025 260: Understanding Pathological Demand Avoidance with Casey Ehrlich, Ph.D., founder of At Peace Parents
If your child is extremely resistant to demands, you might have wondered if pathological demand avoidance–a nervous system dysregulation that results in intense resistance to demands and requests, could be at play. It’s commonly associated with autism, but it can also present with ADHD or anxiety disorders–and it is often considered its own neurological difference.
This week on The Momwell Podcast, I’m joined by Dr. Casey Ehrlich, founder of At Peace Parents, a platform dedicated to helping parents navigate PDA. We discuss what PDA is and how parents can reduce the battles and reframe their parenting approach.
