Are you a mom who is stressed out?
Do you believe that finding time for yourself is a myth?
Does it seem like self-care can't fit into your schedule?
If you are a mom who is feeling stress then you are not alone. According to a study by TODAY, "Apparently 70 percent of U.S. moms say mothering is “incredibly stressful.” And 96 percent also feel that we are far more stressed than our own mothers were."

In this podcast we discuss:
- What self-care is and is not
- Why you may be overthinking self-care
- What all busy moms need to do to start to prioritize themselves
- Why self-care is non-negotiable to your health and your children's well-being
