285. Decision Fatigue: How To Simplify Your Choices and Reclaim Mental Energy
Decision Fatigue: How To Simplify Your Choices and Reclaim Mental Energy
Life is full of decisions and for moms, it can feel like they never stop. From the moment you wake up to the minute your head hits the pillow, it's constant: What's for breakfast? Who needs to be where today? What activity should I sign the kids up for? And by the end of the day, even the smallest question feels like too much.
That's decision fatigue and I'm talking about how to change it.
In this episode, I’ll share:
Why decision fatigue drains your energy faster than you realize (and how to stop it)
How to simplify your choices so you have more energy for what actually matters
Practical ways to hand back decisions that were never yours to carry
A simple mindset shift to help you stop overthinking and start choosing with confidence
The decisions will always be there but the exhaustion, the overwhelm, the mental load? That part can change. I'll show you how to simplify the way you make choices, so you can have more space for peace, joy, and the life you want to create.

283. Breaking Free From Self-Pity
Breaking Free From Self-Pity
You know that voice in your head that says "Of course this happened to me" or "Nothing ever goes my way"?
That voice isn't protecting you. It's sabotaging everything you want.
Most people think they're just "being realistic" when they rehearse their problems over and over. But there's a razor-thin line between acknowledging reality and drowning in it—and crossing that line is costing you your dreams, your relationships, and your peace.
In this episode, I'm exposing the sneaky mental pattern that masquerades as honesty but actually traps you in a cycle of powerlessness. More importantly, I'll give you the exact steps to break free and reclaim your life—starting today.
You'll discover:
The shocking difference between processing pain and feeding it (most people get this backwards)
Why your circumstances don't determine your emotional state (and the proof that will blow your mind)
Practical ways to create peace, gratitude, and resilience, even when life feels messy
If you're tired of waiting for your circumstances (or other people) to change before you feel better, this episode is for you.
