88. Overstimulated, Mama? Why You Feel On Edge (and What to Do About It)

Have you ever snapped at your kids over something small… and then instantly felt guilty? Or craved silence so badly you could scream if you hear one more “Mom, Mama, Mommy?"

That, mama, is overstimulation. And it’s one of the most common — yet least talked about — struggles for moms.

The truth is, your brain and body are processing constant noise, touch, and demands every single day. Add in the invisible mental load of keeping a household running, and it’s no wonder you feel on edge.

In this episode, we’re talking about the real reason moms are especially prone to sensory overload, how to recognize the signs in your body and behavior, why pushing through only makes things worse, and small, doable resets you can use daily to stay calm and reset.
