Hey, mama! If you’ve ever found yourself mindlessly scrolling, overloading your to-do list, or filling every spare second with “productivity” just to avoid feeling all the feelings—this episode is for you.
Today, we’re having a real and much-needed conversation about overstimulation, emotional avoidance, and why so many of us are unknowingly numbing out. It’s easy to think we’re just “staying busy” when in reality, we’re running from the stillness—the place where real healing, connection, and peace can actually happen.
But here’s the thing: You weren’t meant to do this alone. That’s why we’re also diving into the importance of real mom friendships—the kind that don’t require you to have a perfectly clean house or a perfectly curated life. The kind that see you in your mess and love you through it.
So in this episode, we’re covering:
✨ The sneaky ways moms numb out (and how to recognize if you’re doing it)
✨ Why rest isn’t something you earn—it’s something you’re invited into
✨ The myth of effortless mom friendships and how to build your village
✨ Practical ways to reconnect with yourself, God, and your people
Your challenge this week: Reach out to one mom. Send the text. Make the invite. Take the step. Because you were never meant to do this alone.
