Feel like you’re constantly dropping the ball between raising kids and caring for your aging parent? Like you're failing at everything, all at once?
You’re not. You’re doing the best you can with what you have—and that is enough. In this gentle, empowering episode, you'll learn how to shift your inner narrative from relentless self-criticism to true self-compassion. Especially if you're new to the sandwich generation, these affirmations and mindset reframes will help you see just how much you've already grown—and give you tools to stay grounded through the chaos
- Recognize the self-critical patterns that keep you stuck in guilt and overwhelm
- Learn how to build a “due diligence list” to track the small wins and remind yourself of your resilience.
- Practice calming affirmations and mantras that help you replace perfectionism with grace and compassion.
Press play now to stop spiraling in self-blame and start honoring how far you've come.
