Overwhelmed and Exhausted? How to Prioritize Yourself Without the Mom Guilt


Listen Later

Are you constantly in survival mode, running on fumes, and putting yourself last—again?

In this raw and honest episode, I share how I broke the cycle of resentment, burnout, and overwhelm every time my husband was away. You’ll hear how I shifted from yelling and chaos to presence and peace—without changing the kids or the schedule, but by changing how I showed up for myself.

We’ll explore:

• Why so many moms stay stuck in “last place” mode

• What it really means to take care of yourself (without the guilt)

• How putting yourself first can actually make you a better mom

• Tangible ways to get your joy and energy back—even when solo parenting

✨ Plus, I share what happened the night I finally let my daughter sleep next to me, and how it opened my heart in a way I didn’t expect.

And remember: you’re not selfish, you’re setting the standard.
