In this episode you'll learn how to solve mom anxiety (spoiler: it's not what you think), so you can show up as the mom you want to be (with more joy, connection, and fulfillment).

Back-to-school season isn’t just about supply lists and new routines—it’s an emotional transition for both you and your child.

In this episode, I’m diving into why these transitions feel so hard (even when they’re “good”) and how to support your child emotionally and academically—without spiraling into guilt, frustration, or self-doubt.

You’ll learn how to lead your child through separation anxiety, build secure routines, and create a home rhythm that sets them up for success—while staying grounded and confident in your role as mom.

If mornings feel chaotic, drop-offs are emotional, and you’re secretly wondering if you’re handling it all wrong… this episode is for you.

Let’s make this the calmest, most connected back-to-school season yet.

You’ve checked all the boxes—healthy kids, good marriage, stable home, a life that looks exactly like what you once hoped for… so why do you still feel off?

In this episode, I’m diving into one of the most common struggles I hear from high-achieving moms: the disconnect between how life looks and how it feels. I’ll share exactly why this happens (hint: it’s not your circumstances) and what to do if you’re tired of feeling restless, guilty, or stuck—even when everything is technically “fine.”

You’ll learn:

• Why your default emotions might still be guilt, stress, or disconnection

• How your thoughts—not your life—create your feelings

• What a feeling set point is (and why feeling better often feels worse at first)

• A simple journaling practice to help you shift your emotional experience on purpose

This episode will help you stop chasing external fixes and start creating real, internal peace—right now.

Have you ever felt like you’ve spent years supporting your husband, raising kids, running the home—and now that there’s finally space for you—you feel stuck?

In this episode, I’m answering a caller who shared that her husband has had huge career success (bonuses, boards, recognition), while she’s been the backbone of the family. Now that her kids are older, she’s craving more for herself—but she doesn’t feel like she has the power to make the big moves she wants to make.

Cue: resentment.

If you’ve ever felt envy, bitterness, or powerlessness in your marriage—even though you love your husband deeply—this episode is for you.

I dive into:

• Why resentment isn’t about him—it’s about what you’re making it mean
• What to do when you feel stuck in your role
• How to reclaim your power, purpose, and agency without waiting for permission
• The truth about money, motherhood, and making decisions as a team
• What resentment is really trying to tell you (and how to use it to evolve)

This is your guide to stop minimizing your role, stop giving your power away, and start leading your life with intention. You are not stuck—you’re just being called into your next chapter.

Can you be a high-achieving mom and embrace slow, present motherhood? Or do you have to choose?

I’m diving deep into the tension many of us feel—the push to do more, achieve more, and grow… alongside the desire to slow down, soak in the little moments, and actually enjoy motherhood.

I discuss the symptoms that show up when you’re stuck in overdrive, the deeper mindset that’s often fueling the stress, and most importantly, how to break out of the either/or trap.

You don’t have to give up your goals to be a calm, intentional mom. I’ll show you how to integrate both through practical tools, emotional mindset work, and powerful identity shifts.

If you're tired of chasing productivity at the expense of peace, this episode is for you. You can be ambitious and grounded. Strategic and soft. Purpose-driven and present.

If you’re going through the motions with your husband—handling logistics, raising kids, getting through the day—but feeling emotionally disconnected, this episode will hit home.

So many high-achieving moms find themselves stuck in a “roommate” dynamic in marriage. You’re not fighting, but you’re not close. You love each other, but you’ve stopped feeling like partners.

In this episode, I’m getting real about:

• Why this disconnection happens (especially after kids)
• The subtle ways resentment builds
• What to do if your marriage feels lonely, even when he’s “around”
• How to begin a reset—even if he’s not initiating it

This is your invitation to reconnect, rekindle, and rebuild your marriage from the inside out.

There’s a powerful dynamic playing out in so many homes that quietly shapes how we show up as moms, partners, and women. It’s a pattern of falling into emotional roles—like the villain, the victim, or the hero—especially in parenting, marriage, and family relationships.

Maybe you’re always rescuing your kids from discomfort. Or maybe you’re carrying the invisible weight of your whole family and feeling quietly resentful.

In this episode, I’m diving into the psychology behind these emotional roles, how they show up in motherhood, and why high-achieving women often get stuck in this cycle. You’ll learn how these patterns create disconnection and parenting triggers—and how to step out of them to become the calm, empowered leader your family actually needs.

If you’ve ever struggled with mom guilt, resentment, or trying to “fix” everything—this episode will shift everything.
