The hill you’ll die on: mom rules we obsess over and why

You know the rule. Your rule. The one you enforce like it’s federal law—even if no one else around you seems to care. Maybe it’s no shoes in the house. Maybe it’s the exact way a towel should be folded (ahem, there’s only one correct way). In this episode, we’re talking about the parenting rules we cling to—and more importantly, why we cling to them. Is it because we’re teaching values… or are we just performing motherhood for the invisible mom audience in our head?

Key Points Discussed:

• The countertop incident that made me realize we’ve all got our own weird mom rules
• Why some rules are rooted in values—and others in fear of judgment
• The difference between teaching values vs. performing them
• A gut-check to help you reassess your non-negotiables
• Your official permission slip to keep what matters—and drop the rest
