Episode 67: Raising Whole Humans While Staying Whole Yourself: The Truth About "Balance," Mom Guilt & Being Who You Really Are, Embracing Your Feminine & Raising Empowered Children

A crossover replay from Sana's podcast, Thriving In Love, where I joined her to talk real-life motherhood, work, identity, and ditching the guilt. Shared with permission and gratitude to Sana.

You're about to hear a conversation I had on Sana's podcast, Thriving and Love. It was too good not to share. We talk devotion over discipline, mom guilt, and real-world tools for working moms. Big love to Sana for hosting me and letting me bring it here.

This conversation is a permission slip. We go straight into real life: quitting a safe job for what felt true, starting over, choosing devotion instead of white-knuckle discipline, and teaching kids to find joy without the Pinterest circus. High-achieving moms don't need another productivity hack. They need identity alignment.

What you'll hear:

• Why "thoughts create reality" isn't the full picture and why your body calls the shots
  
  

• Devotion vs discipline and how to show up when motivation dies
  
  

• The mom-guilt loop and how to get off it
  
  

• "Balance" vs being. Spoiler: being wins
  
  

• How to raise kids who don't need a theme party to feel celebrated
  
  

• Identity work for high-achieving moms who secretly feel lost
  
  

• Integrity conversations at home, school, and work without burning bridges
  
  

• Why information isn't transformation and what actually lands in a mom's day

Try this this week:

• Ask yourself before any "should": Am I doing this for me, my kid, or the image of me
  
  

• Swap "discipline" for "devotion." One tiny devoted action a day beats a perfect plan
  
  

• Say the honest sentence you're avoiding. Practice it out loud first. Then say it kindly
