There’s Nothing Wrong With You: Understanding and Embracing Your Distress as a Mother
Monday, 9 June, 2025
In this episode of Motherhood in the Making, I’m talking about something most moms feel—but few of us have the words for: The quiet, relentless distress that shows up in the background of our days.I’m sharing both personal stories and clinical insight to help you understand what’s actually going on beneath the surface when you feel overwhelmed, reactive, or like you’re hanging on by a thread. We’ll talk about the emotional patterns shaped by your own childhood, how they sneak into motherhood, and what you can do to rewrite those patters and reclaim your calm.If you’ve ever wondered why it’s so hard to stay calm—or why no amount of parenting advice seems to stick—this episode will help you connect the dots.
