There’s a powerful dynamic playing out in so many homes that quietly shapes how we show up as moms, partners, and women. It’s a pattern of falling into emotional roles—like the villain, the victim, or the hero—especially in parenting, marriage, and family relationships.
Maybe you’re always rescuing your kids from discomfort. Or maybe you’re carrying the invisible weight of your whole family and feeling quietly resentful.
In this episode, I’m diving into the psychology behind these emotional roles, how they show up in motherhood, and why high-achieving women often get stuck in this cycle. You’ll learn how these patterns create disconnection and parenting triggers—and how to step out of them to become the calm, empowered leader your family actually needs.
If you’ve ever struggled with mom guilt, resentment, or trying to “fix” everything—this episode will shift everything.
