The Secret to Emotional Stability in Motherhood: Working With Your Inner Parts

Listen Later

Ever feel like your emotions have been hijacked since becoming a mom?

Like you’re crying one minute and laughing the next—and wondering if you're losing it?

What if instead of seeing your emotional intensity as a problem, you could understand it as part of your becoming?

That emotional chaos you’re feeling?

It’s not a flaw.
It’s not a failure.
It’s the signal of a profound inner transformation- one that’s totally normal (and survivable) in early motherhood.

And the good news?

You don’t have to stay stuck in the overwhelm. You can start creating emotional steadiness today- without numbing, stuffing it down, or pretending you're fine.

If you’re like most high-achieving new moms, you’re used to having it together. You had systems, structure, and self-awareness—until motherhood came along and threw it all out the window.

Now? You feel unpredictable. Raw. Easily overwhelmed.

And part of you might wonder if you’re just not cut out for this.

In today’s episode, I’m walking you through:

  • Why early motherhood feels like an emotional rollercoaster
  • What’s really happening in your brain and nervous system postpartum
  • The surprising reason your emotions feel so big right now
  • A powerful framework (based in Internal Family Systems) to help you understand yourself instead of judge yourself
  • A simple emotional regulation practice to help you pause, breathe, and reconnect when everything feels like too much

    • Whether you’re crying over a bottle lid, snapping at your partner, or wondering where the “old you” went…

    You can find your emotional footing again.
    And you don’t have to do it perfectly to feel better.
    You just need the right inner tools- and a little self-compassion.

    This episode will help you shift from emotional reactivity to grounded presence, and offer a pathway to reconnect with the you that feels steady, loving, and in control—even when motherhood is anything but.

    Let’s do this.
