Ep 140 // How Mom Habits Can Actually Encourage Overwhelm Before Christmas

Have you noticed yourself grabbing the closest task just to feel productive?
Do your days feel like they’re running you instead of the other way around lately?

In this episode, I’m sharing something that caught my attention last week right before the holiday chaos started rolling in — that moment when you realize you’re doing a lot, but not necessarily doing the right things. I walk you through a very real morning in my house that made it painfully clear what happens when we skip the tiny habits that normally protect our peace. We’re talking about why overwhelm makes you reactive, why your brain goes straight to “fast and easy,” and how the smallest habits are often the difference between a calm morning and a complete meltdown. You’ll also hear why that frazzled feeling isn’t a personal failure — it’s your nervous system running on autopilot — and how habits are either carrying you or costing you during a season like this.

Ultimately, I’m challenging you to stop trying to “push through” the overwhelm and instead give your brain a new pattern to follow. You don’t need a new personality or a new planner — you need one small habit that puts you back in the driver’s seat. Inside this episode, I’ll help you see where to start before Christmas hits, so you’re not dragging Thanksgiving chaos straight into December.

Let’s partner together because momming is not easy, but it's way harder when you keep trying to do it alone. I know you're ready to put those babies to bed.... It's time to pop in your ear pods, shake up your fizz and let’s get stacking.
