Feral & Free w/Sidney Burlas pt 2

Head to Toe

Some weeks test everything you thought you had under control. This week, I’m sharing what felt like living through my own version of Dante’s Inferno—breaking promises I made to myself, from celibacy to sobriety, while somehow still showing up on the evening news advocating for children. On the outside, it looked like I had it together. Behind closed doors, I was unraveling. This episode isn’t about excuses—it’s about ownership. I’m talking openly about making mistakes, facing the consequences, and choosing accountability over shame. Healing isn’t always a straight line, and sometimes the hardest part is admitting when you’ve lost your footing. If you’ve ever felt like your private struggles didn’t match the face you showed the world, this conversation is for you. Because taking ownership isn’t the end of the story—it’s where the rebuilding begins. 💡 Tip of the Week Don’t wait until you “feel ready.” Most growth happens while you’re figuring it out. Send the email, apply for the opportunity, make the phone call, or take the first step. Confidence is usually the result of action—not the requirement for it. ✨ Monday Mantra “I don’t have to have all the answers today. I only have to take the next right step. Every small action I take is building the life I’m working toward.” Listen here: https://rss.com/podcasts/mondays-are-a-mother/ [https://rss.com/podcasts/mondays-are-a-mother/] Youtube: www.youtube.com/@MondaysAreAMother Instagram:@mondays_are_a_mother Facebook: Mondays Are A Mother

Not Like The Movies

Not Like the Movies This week on Mondays Are a Mother, I’m sharing an update that feels straight out of a rom-com… until it doesn’t. After finally working up the courage to reach out to the mystery man, I got the answer I was hoping for—the feelings were mutual. But as quickly as the butterflies arrived, reality set in. Sometimes mutual feelings aren’t the same thing as a happy ending, and sometimes life reminds us that timing, circumstances, and real-world complications don’t care about the script we wrote in our heads. I’m also opening up about receiving disappointing news regarding the lawsuit and the emotional weight that comes with watching something you’ve invested time, energy, and hope into take an unexpected turn. This episode is about expectations versus reality, learning to sit with uncertainty, and accepting that life isn’t always wrapped up neatly in a two-hour movie ending. Sometimes the win is simply getting the answer, even if it isn’t the answer you thought would change everything. ✨ Tip of the Week “When you’re carrying too much mentally, stop trying to solve every problem at once. Pick one thing you can do today that your future self will thank you for. Progress isn’t made by giant leaps—it’s built through small, consistent steps.” 💛 Monday Momma Mantra “I release what I cannot control, trust what I am building, and give myself permission to grow at my own pace. What’s meant for me won’t pass me by.” Listen here: https://rss.com/podcasts/mondays-are-a-mother/ [https://rss.com/podcasts/mondays-are-a-mother/] Youtube: www.youtube.com/@MondaysAreAMother Instagram:@mondays_are_a_mother Facebook: Mondays Are A Mother #podcast #singlemomstuggle #mondaysareamother #newepisode #podcasts

Can I get over it already?

Episode Title: Can I Get Over It Already? Why do some heartbreaks linger long after the relationship is over? And why do financial struggles seem to carry a weight that follows us everywhere? In this honest and vulnerable episode, we dive into the emotional burden of carrying both financial stress and unresolved grief from a relationship that ended years ago. When bills pile up, dreams feel delayed, and memories resurface unexpectedly, it’s easy to wonder, “Shouldn’t I be over this by now?” Together, we’ll explore the complicated reality of healing—how grief doesn’t always follow a timeline, how financial pressure can amplify emotional wounds, and why letting go isn’t as simple as making a decision. Through personal reflection and candid conversation, this episode offers reassurance, perspective, and a reminder that healing is rarely linear. If you’ve ever found yourself mourning a chapter you thought was closed while trying to survive the demands of everyday life, this conversation is for you. Because sometimes moving forward isn’t about forgetting—it’s about learning how to carry the lessons without carrying the weight. Tune in for a raw discussion about heartbreak, financial hardship, self-compassion, and the question so many of us quietly ask ourselves: “Can I get over it already?” 🎙️❤️ Listen here: https://rss.com/podcasts/mondays-are-a-mother/ [https://rss.com/podcasts/mondays-are-a-mother/] Youtube: www.youtube.com/@MondaysAreAMother Instagram:@mondays_are_a_mother Facebook: Mondays Are A Mother #podcast #singlemomstuggle #mondaysareamother #newepisode #podcasts
