What if the biggest threat to your relationship isn’t conflict—but silence?

In this Valentine’s Day–themed episode of the Mama Work It Podcast, we’re joined by Colette Jane Fehr, licensed psychotherapist, nationally recognized relationship expert, and author of the newly released book The Cost of Quiet: How to Have the Hard Conversations That Create Secure, Lasting Love.

Colette explains why so many women—especially working moms—stay quiet in their relationships, even when something feels off. From unmet needs and emotional labor to fear of conflict and people-pleasing, silence often feels safer than speaking up. But over time, that quiet can slowly erode intimacy, connection, and trust.

This conversation explores how avoiding hard conversations impacts love, why honesty doesn’t have to mean conflict, and how women can begin reclaiming their voice in relationships—without blowing things up.

If you’ve ever thought, “It’s easier not to say anything,” this episode is for you.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

• What “quiet” really looks like in modern relationships (it's probably not what you're thinking)
• Why women and moms are especially likely to silence their needs
• The difference between constructive honesty and harmful conflict
• How to have hard conversations that build emotional safety
• Where to start if you’ve been quiet for a long time
• What secure, lasting love actually requires

Who This Episode Is For

✔️ Working moms navigating partnership and emotional labor
✔️ Women feeling disconnected or unheard in their relationships
✔️ Moms who avoid conflict to keep the peace
✔️ Anyone wanting deeper, more secure love

What happens when doing everything right still leaves you exhausted?

In this episode of the Mama Work It Podcast, we sit down with Christine Fitzgerald, a former competitive gymnast turned nutrition and hormone healing expert, whose own health crisis at just 20 years old changed the course of her life. Thrown into clinical menopause while training at an elite level, Christine experienced extreme fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, and weight changes that no amount of exercise or clean eating could fix.

Her search for answers led her to earn a master’s degree in nutrition, publish two books on wellness and mindset, and spend over 25 years helping women heal hormones, restore energy, and feel at home in their bodies again.

Christine’s work blends science and soul—combining data-driven nutrition and hormone testing with nervous system regulation, breathwork, and mindset practices. She calls this integrative approach Remembrance Work, helping women’s bodies remember what safety, balance, and vitality feel like.

This episode is especially powerful for working moms who feel tired, foggy, inflamed, or stuck despite “doing all the right things.”

What We Cover in This Episode

• Christine’s journey from Olympic-level gymnastics to early clinical menopause
• Why so many women feel exhausted even when they eat clean and exercise
• The hidden role of hormones, stress, and nervous system overload
• What it really means to blend science and soul in healing
• Where overwhelmed moms should start when they don’t feel like themselves
• Why feeling good in your body isn’t selfish—it’s sacred
