Why Self-Care Isn’t Enough (and How Money Matters) with Leslie Forde
Episode 267
Tuesday, 10 February, 2026
In today's episode, I’m sharing my conversation with Leslie Forde — author, CEO, researcher, and advocate for women’s maternal needs. Leslie is the creator of Mom’s Hierarchy of Needs, a powerful framework that helps explain why traditional self-care so often falls short for moms. We talk about why so many of the struggles moms face aren’t personal failures, but the result of systemic and cultural pressures — including scarcity and money stress. Leslie shares how growing up with financial instability shaped her relationship with work and options, how financial stress shows up in the nervous system, and why understanding money as options (not just numbers) can be so empowering. We also explore why believing we deserve care is such an essential — and often missing — starting point.
