Surviving Roots: A Crash Course in Turning Pain into Potential

The Mental Load of Motherhood and Why Asking for Help Changes Everything with Diana Arango


Listen Later

Motherhood isn't just hard — it's heavy. And one of the biggest invisible weights? Feeding everyone… every single day.

In this episode of Surviving Roots, Cari Fund sits down with Diana Arango, co-founder + CEO of Chefpost, a platform connecting busy families with vetted personal chefs on demand. Diana shares the real story behind Chefpost: how her own burnout as a working mom sparked a mission to help families reclaim time, presence, and connection at home.

In this conversation, we cover:

  • The mental load of meal planning (and why it's exhausting)

  • Why "balance" is a myth — and what actually works for moms

  • How to shift from a suffering mindset to a supported life

  • Why asking for help is strength, not failure

  • How Chefpost makes personal chef support accessible and flexible

If the holidays bring up complicated feelings about family, you're not broken — you're human. My Estrangement Survival Mini Guide is for adult children navigating distance, boundaries, or no-contact with a parent while still wanting peace, clarity, and self-trust. It's not about blame or cutting people off. It's about understanding your nervous system, releasing guilt, and choosing what supports your healing — whatever that looks like for you.
