What if exhaustion in motherhood is not about doing too much, but about not having access to your full power?
In this episode of The Millionaire Mother Podcast, Cait sits down with Kimberly Ann Johnson, author, somatic practitioner, birth doula, and teacher known for her work on the nervous system, postpartum healing, and embodied leadership.
Kimberly shares the personal evolution that shaped her work, from navigating six and a half years of postpartum healing to developing the frameworks behind The Fourth Trimester and Call of the Wild.
This conversation explores what she calls Jaguar energy, the healthy fight response that many women have been conditioned to suppress. Together, Cait and Kimberly unpack how fawning, freezing, and over-attunement show up in motherhood, business, money, and relationships.
Tune in to hear:
Why postpartum healing often takes years and why that is normal
The difference between nervous system regulation and surface-level wellness trends
How clear boundaries conserve energy instead of draining it
Why many women struggle with authority in parenting and leadership
The nervous system patterns behind money avoidance or obsession
The impact of over-identifying with prey energy in modern culture
How to discern where your energy truly belongs in a reactive social media landscape
The importance of thinking in generational time rather than immediate validation
