Between work deadlines, kids’ schedules, marriage, friendships, and the constant noise of social media, it’s no wonder so many of us feel anxious, overwhelmed, and exhausted. In this episode, we get real about mental health, mom guilt, burnout, and the pressure to “have it all.”

We open up about postpartum anxiety, high-functioning depression, toxic productivity, and the emotional toll of juggling careers and motherhood. From setting boundaries and saying no, to redefining presence, therapy, and what self-care actually looks like in midlife, this conversation is honest, validating, and deeply relatable.

If you have ever felt like you’re doing everything and still falling short, you are not alone. We are right here with you!

In this Episode:

- Why mental health conversations still feel taboo for women

- The hidden cognitive load of motherhood and career life

- Why meditation doesn’t work for everyone 

- How social media fuels burnout, comparison, and inadequacy

- The power of boundaries, saying no, and letting go of people pleasing

- How mom guilt shows up and why quality matters more than quantity

- Why therapy, medication, and asking for help are signs of strength
