Why Self-Care Matters for Moms—And How to Start

Is self-care something that only happens when the kids are older and life slows down? Nope. In this episode, we’re getting real about why self-care matters right now, even in the messy middle of motherhood. I’ll walk you through what self-care actually is (hint: it’s deeper than bubble baths), how to get started without guilt, and the powerful ways it transforms not just your health — but your motherhood. If you’ve been feeling tired, overwhelmed, or lost in your identity as "just mom," this one’s for you.

In This Episode, We Talk About:

• Why self-care is not selfish — it's stewardship

• The real definition of self-care (beyond spa days and face masks)

• How to start a self-care journey with just one small step

• My personal story: how I started with spiritual care, therapy, and tiny health habits

• How taking care of yourself helps you love your people better

• Simple resources and tools to help you start right now
