That’s being touched out—but it’s not just about exhaustion. It’s the crushing weight of constant physical contact, relentless mental load, and a world that refuses to support mothers.

In this episode, we dive into:

  • Why mothers experience sensory and emotional overload.
  • The unequal distribution of household and parenting labour.
  • How the lack of real community support leaves mothers drowning.
  • Why self-care isn’t the solution to systemic neglect—and what actually needs to change.

Motherhood shouldn’t mean sacrificing your body, mind, and autonomy. Let’s talk about how to demand better, set boundaries, and create real support systems.

Life has been a whirlwind, and in this first episode I’m sharing my journey through burnout and multiple miscarriages. This wasn’t a planned break from social media, but it became necessary as I found myself overwhelmed by the pressure to keep creating and the negativity that came with it.

In this episode, I get real about the grief and healing process after 9 miscarriages, what it’s been like navigating that pain while already having two children, and how it’s changed the way I show up for others who are going through similar struggles. I also talk about the importance of authenticity, even when it feels uncomfortable, and how social media has both exposed us to trauma and forced us to confront the harsh realities of the world we live in.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, unsure of how to show up for yourself, or struggled with the pressures of having it all together, well this episode is for you. I’m leaning into vulnerability and embracing the messiness of life. Join me as I share what I’ve learned along the way and how I’m navigating these big emotions.

Thank you for being here and listening to my story. It’s not always easy, but it feels important to show up as myself; imperfect, authentic, and ready to connect. Let’s get into it. 💛

In today's podcast episode, I wanted to share with you a bit about my thoughts and my personal and professional experience around psychology and spirituality. This is something that I have been on my own journey with. So of course, I've got my degrees that are very psychology based. But in my personal life, I've also felt this shift to explore my spirituality. I find this to be perhaps a more common thing that occurs for us as we get older, I really am curious about what it stems from for a lot of people, whether that's religious trauma, or just feeling the sense of there's something more, or you're trying to find ways to support yourself. Join me in this conversation, I would love to hear from you.

Here is the replay on Instagram. We can love it and we can find it hard. We can enjoy playing with our children and dislike pretend play. We can wish for our children to sleep through the night and miss the cuddles when they do. We can be snappy some days and be working to be more gentle. There is so much we can be as Mothers, this journey isn’t linear. There is space for the positive and negative. So what can we do? Accepting this, being compassionate with ourselves will allow the space for the duality of motherhood.

For many of us who are making a conscious decision to parent differently to the way that we were parented and raised, we can feel like we're going against the grain. If you were not modelled to parent in this gentle parenting way, you need a lot of information and support. It's really hard to parent in this way, it's definitely not the easy way out. And when we come to realize this and acknowledge our struggles, and what we find really hard, we realize it is because we are the first ones to do something differently.
