Ever feel like the weight of your household rests entirely on your shoulders? That how you show up determines how everyone else in your home shows up too?

That’s because it does—and not in a guilt-trip way. In a powerful, reclaim-your-peace way.

In this episode, I’m sharing 3 nervous system truths every mama needs to hear when life feels loud, chaotic, or like you’re one tantrum away from breaking down. You'll learn how to start shifting from yelling, mom rage, and reactionary partenting to calm, present, and joyful. (And it will even help your marriage!)

Plus, a practical rhythm to help you slow down, get honest about what you need, and start to notice the ripple effect of a regulated nervous system.

Ever find yourself losing it over something tiny—and then hating yourself for it?

Yeah, me too.

In this voice-note-style chat, I’m sharing a moment of raw frustration (that almost led to mom rage), the shame spiral that followed, and the simple but powerful pivot that helped me soften back into regulation and caring for my nervous system.

If you’ve ever felt like the chaos of motherhood is too much for your system to carry, this one’s for you.

Let’s breathe through it together, mama.

Welcome to FROM THE TRENCHES mini-episodes—a brief, unscripted voice note from my heart to yours. This one is raw, tender, and anchored in a mama’s deepest fear and her fiercest faith.

In this episode, I share my real-time thoughts as I process the tragic floodwaters that swept through Camp Mystic in Texas and the girls who are still missing. We talk about grief, prayer, and how to stay grounded when the unimaginable hits close to home.

In this honest reentry episode, I (Rachel) share the behind-the-scenes truth of why I paused my business, what life has looked like over the past few months, and how I'm rebuilding from a more rooted, radiant place. This episode is for the anxious mama who feels like what used to work just isn’t working anymore—and who’s craving a gentler, deeper rhythm for resourcing herself and regulating her nervous system.

What You’ll Hear:

• Why burnout doesn't always feel dramatic (but still hits hard when you ignore burnout signs)

• The real-life personal challenges that brought me to a full pause

• How resourcing yourself must evolve with every new season of life

• An invitation to reimagine your own rhythm and needs right now

• What’s coming next inside the Ditch Mom Anxiety world
