Parenting isn’t just about raising children — it’s about healing yourself along the way. In this episode, we dive deep into the untold truths of motherhood and modern parenting: how society minimizes caregiving work, why many fear becoming parents due to their own upbringing, and what it really takes to break generational cycles.

We’re naming the shame, laughing through the chaos, and validating the very real struggles so many parents carry silently. From learning to love your children in ways they can actually receive to prioritizing self-care (yes, even when it feels impossible), this episode is a permission slip to parent with compassion, curiosity, and courage.

Whether you’re in the thick of it or preparing for your journey ahead, this one’s for you.

Because you don’t have to be a perfect parent — just a present one.
