You don’t have to do it all to be a good mom, especially if doing it all is burning you out.
In this episode of Mind Your Mama, Lauren gets real about resentment, overwhelm, and why putting yourself first is not selfish—it’s smart, sustainable motherhood. She unpacks the cultural pressure cooker (from 1950s “perfect housewife” to today’s Instagram mom), then shows you how boundaries, nervous system care, and a simple “no” can change your whole home vibe.
Questions answered in this episode:
- Why does loving yourself first make you a better mom (not a selfish one)?
- How do you set clear boundaries with kids and your partner without feeling guilty?
- What’s the “fawning” people-pleasing response—and how is it wrecking your health?
- How do you say no confidently (including the exact script Lauren uses)?
- What quick daily practices reset your nervous system fast (EFT tapping + a 2-minute movement reset)?
