Have you ever had a day where you're just barely getting by - trying not to fall apart while every little thing your kids say feels like nails on a chalkboard?
What if you could have a simple plan for those hard days that's easy enough to remember even when your brain is foggy, but practical enough that it actually works?
Are you tired of white-knuckling your way to bedtime and wondering why you can't just handle the "smaller" struggles better?
In this episode, I share my own recent struggle with a hard day and walk you through the R.E.S.T. Framework - a simple acronym to help you move from survival mode to actually making it through without regrets.
You'll learn how to recognize your warning signs before you break, why routine actually helps when you're falling apart, practical tools to calm your nervous system in minutes, and how to release the guilt around needing rest and respite. This episode is for every mama who's tired of just surviving and ready to have a plan for her hardest days.
