When “doing it all” starts to feel impossible, it’s easy to believe your only option is to quit.

In this episode of Life of And, Tiffany shares a raw, real story about helping her teenage daughter, Aubrey, navigate the overwhelm of school, swimming, and show choir — and how a Friday night meltdown turned into a masterclass in renegotiating what matters.

Through the Life of And framework, Tiffany shows how to reframe guilt, lead with values, and find practical solutions when life feels too heavy to hold. It’s a relatable parenting moment — and a reminder that you can have it all, just not all at once… and never without intention.
