The Modern Mommy Doc Podcast

The Hidden Grief of Working Motherhood


Listen Later

We’re not supposed to say it out loud, but here it is: working moms grieve too. We grieve missed milestones, canceled bedtimes, and the tiny, invisible moments no one else sees. In this episode, Dr. Whitney Casares opens up about the emotional weight of “having it all” and the myth that we can be everywhere at once. She shares how to name the grief, process it with mindful self-compassion, and redefine what it means to show up for your kids (and yourself). If you’ve ever felt torn between ambition and motherhood, this one's for you.
