Let’s Validate Why it Feels “Easier” to Not Take Time for Yourself || Growth Spurt
Oct 16, 2025
In this episode I'm exploring why self-care for mothers often feels like an impossible task. It's not a lack of self-compassion or personal development that's to blame, but the invisible labor—those daily habits and tasks that women silently shoulder.
This understanding is crucial for self-improvement; it helps us identify how to stop being a perfectionist trying to manage everything perfectly. To truly embrace self care, and to feel happy in our lives, we need to share these responsibilities, allowing us the space for growth and fulfillment.
