Episode 19: Mom Guilt - why you need to let it go

Mom guilt. That heavy, nagging voice that tells us we’re failing because dinner was pizza, we missed the class party, or we snapped after running on three hours of sleep. In this episode, Amy and Amanda get real about the ways guilt sneaks into motherhood — from forgotten pajama days to kids still reminding us about the one time we didn’t feed them dinner.

We unpack where mom guilt comes from (hello, social media and unrealistic expectations), why holding onto it doesn’t make us better moms, and how to finally let it go. With confessions from listeners, honest stories from our own homes, and a whole lot of laughs, we’ll show you how lowering the bar, flipping the script, and giving yourself credit can change everything.

Because here’s the truth: your kids don’t need a Pinterest-worthy pantry or perfect projects. They need YOU — safe, loving, and showing up in the messy, imperfect ways that matter most.

✨ Perfect for: moms beating themselves up over little things, parents stuck in comparison mode, and anyone who needs permission to let go of the guilt and keep the joy.
