Ep #163 This Is Why You’re Exhausted: The Lie Every Mom Believes

Hey hey!!!

Let’s rip the Band-Aid off: you’re not exhausted because you’re doing it wrong. You’re exhausted because you’ve been sold a lie. 

A big one. 

In this episode, we’re going all in on the hidden belief that keeps moms stuck in burnout:
 

👉 “Once I fix the problem, I’ll finally feel better.” 

You know the one.
 “If the house would just stay clean…”
 “If bedtime didn’t take an hour…”
 “If my kids would stop fighting…”
 Then you could finally exhale. 

But here’s the truth: your life was never meant to be problem-free. 

We dive into: 

• The reason you're actually tired (hint: it's not just your kids)
• Why trying to “arrive” at peace is making everything harder
• How to stop resisting emotional discomfort and start understanding it
• A step-by-step breakdown of the STEAR model for emotional awareness
• My very real story about getting completely triggered over... grass (yes, grass)
• The shift that happens when you stop trying to fix your life and start living it

This episode is part pep talk, part truth serum, and part workshop, packed with journal prompts to help you untangle the exhaustion at its root.
 
If you’ve ever thought, “Why am I still feeling this way when I’m trying so hard?”
This one’s for you.
 
You’re not failing. You’re just human. And that’s not only okay, it’s beautiful.
 
Let’s dig in.
