When Motherhood Feels Overwhelming: Reset Your Home, Mind, & Expectations
Episode: When Motherhood Feels Overwhelming: How to Reset Your Home, Your Mind, and Your Expectations
Guest: Melissa Schulz , Speaker, Coach, and Founder at melissaschulz.com
Do you ever look around and think:“Why does motherhood feel SO HARD… and why does everyone else seem to handle it better?”
In today’s episode, Melissa Schulz shares how her early work with troubled and special-needs children equipped her with the exact tools she would need later as a mom of three, two of whom are neurodiverse. She opens up about how her career shaped her parenting, her perspective on neurodiversity, and her approach to managing overwhelm.
✨ Key Takeaways
Melissa offers practical, doable steps for moms who are drowning in responsibility and decision fatigue, including:
How to recognize the root cause of overwhelm
Why tiny shifts are more powerful than big dramatic fixes
Simple systems that help your home run smoother without perfection
How to parent neurodiverse kids with compassion and confidence
What to do when you feel like you’re failing (spoiler: you’re not)
If you’ve ever wanted to take a breath, press reset, and feel capable again—this episode is your permission slip.
You don’t need to overhaul your whole life—one small change creates momentum.
Behavior is communication: your kids aren’t giving you a hard time, they’re having a hard time.
Overwhelm is a signal, not a character flaw.
