In today's episode of the Mosai Network Podcast, we are joined by an incredible woman, Jennifer Banks. She is a mom navigating the vibrant chaos of raising three boys while piecing together the puzzle of life.. Through her journey, she's danced with the "shoulds" society lays at our feet—clean homes, perfect motherhood, career balance—you name it. Her story, "The Shoulds We Carry," isn't just hers; it's a shared narrative among all of us, pulling at the threads of what we're told we ought to be. It's about shattering the illusion of perfection, embracing our inherent worth, and swapping 'should' for 'could.'

Together, let's explore the transformative power of storytelling, find joy in our authentic selves, and learn to pour from a cup that's not just full, but overflowing.
