Maxed Out? It’s Not You—It’s the “I Can’t” Lie

Description

I dive deep into the reality of burnout for modern moms. I challenge the dangerous "I can't" mindset that keeps us stuck, exhausted, and disconnected from ourselves. Drawing from my personal experience of feeling overwhelmed while standing in a messy kitchen late one night, I expose how burnout isn't just about being tired—it's about losing our identity and living on autopilot.




I share startling statistics: nearly 70% of working parents are burned out, and only a quarter of moms report excellent mental health. But here's the truth: burnout is optional. I offer practical strategies to break free, like taking micro-pauses, saying no to draining commitments, and asking for help.


My message is clear: you're not broken, you're a badass. Stop waiting for "someday" and start reclaiming your life now. Thriving is available, and you absolutely deserve it.
