You were the high achiever. The get-it-done woman. The one who could carry it all—until motherhood rewrote the script.
In this episode, Gia sits down with therapist and maternal mental health expert Megan Velo for a no-BS conversation about what really happens to women when the life they built suddenly no longer fits the woman they’ve become.
They unpack:
The silent shame of intrusive thoughts—and why no one talks about them
The myth of the “snapback” and the cost of chasing perfection
The identity crisis that hits high-achieving moms hard—and how to rediscover yourself in the chaos
The root of the pressure to do it all, be it all, and never ask for help
If you’ve ever felt like you’re losing yourself in the thick of it, this episode will remind you: You’re not broken. You’re shifting.
🎧 Listen now and reclaim the parts of you that success—and motherhood—left behind.
