Motherhood has a way of bringing out both our fiercest love and our deepest fears. In this heartfelt episode, I talk with Britney King about the real and raw mental weight that comes with parenting, especially when our thoughts start to spiral, when we feel disconnected, or when we’re just plain tired.

On this episode, my guest Brittney King and I explore how easy it is to fall into patterns of self-judgment or isolation, and how healing it can be to open up to support, connection, and faith again. This isn’t a conversation about doing more, it’s about finding gentler ways to be with yourself in the middle of it all.

If you’ve felt stretched thin, unsure, or quietly wondering if you’re the only one feeling this way, you’re not. Let this episode be a safe place to land.
