As ambitious moms, we’re flooded with shoulds—and when we can’t keep up, the guilt and harsh self-talk follow fast. In this episode, we explore how those “shoulds” and “woulds” shape false beliefs that leave us feeling like we’re never enough.

You’ll learn how to use body awareness to interrupt that cycle, reconnect to what you truly need, and shift your priorities from pressure to alignment.

Plus, I’ll guide you through a simple practice to question negative thoughts—and share why the real difference-maker isn’t in some future milestone, but right here, within you.

Why You Keep Avoiding Breaks and How It’s Quietly Burning You Out

Ever find yourself dreaming of a weekend off-grid — yet talking yourself out of a 5-minute break? You’re not alone, and no, you’re not lazy. In this episode, we unpack the hidden perfectionism behind why so many ambitious moms resist rest unless it looks just right.

I explore the fantasy of the “perfect break,” how dismissing micro-pauses sabotages your well-being, and why your nervous system is craving presence — not escape.

You’ll learn:
🌀 Why short breaks feel “pointless” and how to reframe them
🌀 What your body is really trying to tell you when you’re fidgety or rushing
🌀 Why you don’t need to nap to rest — but you do need permission
🌀 A somatic practice to reclaim rest in real-time

Tune in and take a breath — this one’s for the part of you that keeps going, that keeps giving when what you really need... is to rest and receive.

You’d think I have body awareness all figured out—but the truth is, I don’t. In this raw, unscripted episode, I take you behind the scenes of my personal struggle with body awareness, especially as someone with a background in competitive sports and a noisy, busy household.

I’m sharing this not just to be real with you—but because I know many ambitious moms feel like they’re failing when mindfulness doesn’t come naturally.

This episode is your reminder that being ‘bodyful’ isn’t about doing it perfectly. It’s about finding what works for you in the mess of motherhood. If I can do it, so can you.
