Confessions from an overwhelmed mom

The Adult Version of Feeling Left Out

We usually think of being left out as something that happens on the playground or in high school, but what if that feeling never really leaves us? In this episode, I’m talking about something that’s been sitting heavy on my heart lately—the feeling of being excluded, forgotten, or wondering where exactly we fit in. Nobody is blaming anyone here. In fact, sometimes the people around us haven’t done anything wrong at all. But old wounds have a funny way of showing up in present moments, and our minds can quickly turn uncertainty into a story. This isn’t an episode about having all the answers. It’s an honest conversation about belonging, connection, overthinking, and the part of us that still wants to feel chosen. If you’ve ever questioned your place in a friendship, a group, a relationship, or even in the world around you, this one is for you.

Confessions from an overwhelmed mom

Some days parenting feels magical. Other days you vacuum the floor, walk into another room, and discover your child has peeled an entire pile of crayons, left the wrappers everywhere, and somehow decided licking a crayon was a good idea. This isn’t a parenting advice episode. It’s an honest conversation about exhaustion, guilt, boundaries, and the overwhelming feeling that no matter how much you clean, the mess keeps coming back. As a mom of two, I’ve started asking myself some difficult questions. Have I confused boundaries with being mean? Am I too soft? Why is it so hard to hold the line when I know my kids need structure? If you’ve ever looked around your house and wondered if you’re the only parent struggling to keep up, this episode is for you.

The Mind Body Connection

Sometimes it feels like my body and brain are speaking two different languages. In this episode, I share my thoughts on the mind-body connection, the nervous system, and why certain emotional and physical patterns can be so difficult to change. If you’ve ever wondered why you feel stuck in cycles of stress, worry, exhaustion, or overwhelm, this conversation might resonate with you.

Who Unplugged My Battery?

Do you ever wake up feeling like someone unplugged your battery? In this episode, I’m talking about those days when your energy is gone before the day has even really started. Whether you’re navigating parenthood, summer break, work, stress, or just the everyday grind of being human, sometimes you simply have nothing left in the tank—and that’s okay. This isn’t an episode about fixing yourself. It’s a conversation about giving yourself permission to slow down, be honest about how you’re feeling, and remember that you’re not alone. If you’ve been feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, or just a little disconnected lately, this one’s for you.

Trauma, Memory, and Moving Forward

Everybody has something. A memory, an experience, a moment that changed them. In this episode, I explore trauma, memory, and why our minds sometimes hold onto experiences long after they’ve ended. This isn’t a lesson or a lecture—it’s a personal conversation about healing, curiosity, and learning that we’re not defined by what happened to us.
