Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2390177/fan_mail/new] In this powerful episode of The Mommy Pod, I sit down with attorney and speaker Pauliana Lara for an honest conversation about the guilt, shame, and pressure so many working moms carry every single day. Society often tells moms to give everything to everyone else — but what happens when constantly putting yourself last starts affecting your health, happiness, and identity? Pauliana opens up about her personal journey, including a frightening season of stress that became so severe it caused a mysterious rash no one could diagnose.

We’re discussing: • Mom guilt and unrealistic expectations • The pressure working mothers face daily • Stress and the hidden ways it impacts our bodies • Why putting yourself first is not a bad thing • Healing, boundaries, and reclaiming your identity beyond motherhood If you’ve ever felt guilty for resting, overwhelmed by trying to do it all, or like you’ve lost pieces of yourself while caring for everyone else — this conversation is for you.
