Ever had the urge to email your missionary’s mission president to explain your child’s quirks, apologize for 18 years of parenting, and offer a few disclaimers? Yeah… me too.

In today’s episode, we’re lightening things up and learning to laugh at the moments that usually send us into a shame spiral. Because let’s face it—sometimes the best medicine for a panicked mom brain is a little humor, especially when the situation is really just burnt toast, not a house fire.

Here’s what we cover:

• Why our urge to explain or defend doesn’t make us crazy—it just means we love hard
• How to recognize when our nervous system is overreacting (hello, Team Hyper)
• A collection of imaginary “Dear President” letters that will make you laugh out loud in the Costco parking lot
• The power of laughter to regulate emotions and break shame’s spell
• How to tell yourself the truer story when fear kicks in
• A powerful reminder that we’re not in charge of perfecting our missionaries (thank goodness for that!)

We wrap it all up with a story from a college professor that reminds us why taking life too seriously can be dangerous—and why lightening up is sometimes the most spiritual thing we can do.

This one’s for every mom who’s ever wanted to fix, explain, or defend—and is learning to laugh instead.

✨ Bonus Challenge: Write your own “Dear President” letter (but don’t send it).
