The Calm Mom – Burnout, Anxiety, Nervous System, Mindset, Self-Care, Parenting, Work-Life Balance

Are stress and overwhelm your default settings? 

Maybe you brush off anxiety, overthinking, or irritability as a part of life as a high-achieving mom. 

In this episode, I’m calling out 10 signs of nervous system dysregulation that you’ve probably been ignoring or writing off as “just how it is.” 

Spoiler: constant busyness, perfectionism, and sleepless nights are not your personality—they’re signs your nervous system needs help.

Here’s what we’re diving into:

• Why “common” doesn’t mean “normal”—and why ignoring these signs isn’t the flex you think it is.
• 10 clear-as-day symptoms that your nervous system is out of whack (like overthinking everything or snapping at your kids over crumbs on the floor).
• Simple, science-backed tools to start regulating your nervous system and reclaiming some much-needed calm.

Stress isn’t your forever home, and you don’t have to feel this way. Tune in to learn how to spot the signs, take action, and finally give your nervous system the TLC it deserves.

Work-life balance: is it an actual thing, or just a myth designed to make us feel like we’re failing at everything? Spoiler alert: it’s probably the latter.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jody Carrington—psychologist, speaker, author, and the human equivalent of a warm, no-BS pep talk. Dr. Jody brings two decades of experience working with kids, families, and communities, and she’s here to unpack the real reason we’re all feeling stretched too thin: we’re disconnected.  

Dr. Jody’s philosophy is simple but powerful: when we truly *see* and acknowledge each other, everything shifts. Whether it’s parenting struggles, work stress, or that recurring argument about who forgot to defrost the turkey, reconnection is the key to building resilience, easing burnout, and finding a little more joy in the chaos.  

Here’s what we cover:  

• Why work-life balance is a lie and what we actually need to thrive.  
• How to regulate your emotions so you can respond instead of snapping at your partner (or your kids).  
• Practical parenting tips to strengthen your connection with your little humans.  

This isn’t another episode about doing *more*. It’s about meaningful connection—the kind that actually makes life feel better.

Are you out of touch with your inner child?

Think about a moment when you’ve seen your kids light up over the smallest thing—a rainbow, a funny face, a new idea—and you realize it’s been way too long since you felt that kind of awe & wonder. 

When we’re carrying unhealed trauma, it’s like a filter over our life that blocks us from experiencing that natural, joyful curiosity we once had.

In this episode, I’m talking with Jeannine Rashidi, an expert in trauma healing and a doctor of Ayurveda. Jeannine has spent over 20 years guiding others through deep inner work to reconnect with their inner child, heal generational trauma, and bring the body, mind, and heart back into harmony after the impacts of trauma.

If you’re ready to break free from the patterns holding you back and to bring more ease, presence, and even joy into your everyday life, this episode is for you.

Here’s what we dive into:

• How to unlock abundance on the other side of trauma
• Practical steps to transform painful experiences into a source of inner strength
• Why our subconscious drives us toward the familiar (even when it’s not what’s best for us) and how healing the past can shift these patterns for good

“If you’re not certain about your inner child, go watch a child and notice where in your life you are missing some of those qualities.” – Jeannine Rashidi

“I see self-compassion as welcoming everything: all of your emotions, desires. Everything gets to be there. It’s welcoming yourself fully and holding yourself.” – Danielle De La Mare

Do you feel like you’re doing all the right things to keep your anxiety at bay, but like a pesky houseguest that never leaves, it keeps showing up?

You’re meditating, practicing mindfulness, managing your time better, even cutting back on caffeine—yet that familiar feeling of anxiety always seems to return. Here’s the thing: anxiety isn’t just something we can outthink or outmanage.

In this episode, we’re diving into why, despite doing "all the things," anxiety will persist until we address the root cause—your nervous system’s dysregulation. It’s not just about mindset shifts or deep breathing; it's about understanding that the body keeps the score. Real, lasting healing starts when we work with our body, not just our mind.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why anxiety stems from unresolved alarm stored in your body, not just your thoughts.
• What trauma really means—and why it’s not just about big, life-altering events.
• How inner child work can be a powerful tool for healing anxiety by addressing emotional wounds from your past.

In today’s episode, we’ll dive into the everyday habits that either soothe or stress your nervous system. You’ll learn how even small, unconscious actions can push you into a state of chronic dysregulation and what you can do to reset.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• 5 sneaky habits might be dysregulating your system and causing you chronic stress
• Actionable tips to shift your habits and help your nervous system find balance

Think about it: how much conflicting advice have you heard when it comes to health and diet?

3 things you’ll learn in this episode:

1. How to build a healthy diet to fit your goals without following a diet plan
2. Breaking free from the all-or-nothing mindset
3. How fixing underlying hormone imbalances may be the missing piece to enjoying easy and lasting results

Is dysregulation causing conflict in your marriage, or is your marriage causing you to feel dysregulated?  Or does it feel like both are true?

When we get married, we don’t just marry a person.  The truth is that we also marry their history, their habits, their traumas, and their nervous system.  And this can cause a lot of conflict.

My guest today is Dr. Wyatt Fisher, a licensed psychologist specializing in couples therapy who’s been married for over 20 years and raised 4 children. 

We touch on how we can resolve resentments despite the chaos of motherhood and how leaning on our spouse for shared decision making can help create intimacy.

3 things you’ll learn in this episode:

1. Why conflict is normal and important in relationships
2. Dr. Fisher’s brilliant Diamond Approach to address conflict
3. What a “love bucket” is and how you can fill your partners

A few years ago I started calling my morning quiet time my “priority time” and something shifted.

These days, I start every morning in my favorite cozy spot with my Bible and journal. Some days the house is quiet and some days it’s not. 🤪

But I’ve cultivated a morning routine that’s been sustainable and today, I invite you to do the same.

I’m joined in this episode by Rosie Alejandro, host of Her Intentional Bible Study and spiritual growth mentor. Rosie has a passion for helping women hear God’s voice every day and deepening their personal relationship with Him.

We discuss the importance of prioritizing stillness, how we can regulate our nervous system to better serve that quiet space, and finding creative ways to connect with God to support spiritual growth.

3 things you’ll learn in this episode:

1. Find calm in the chaos through a simple routine.
2. Why starting your day in stillness with God is so important for moms.
3. How prioritizing stillness with God can positively impact your nervous system

Over the summer, we’re bringing back some of your favorite episodes!  These are the top downloaded episodes you couldn’t get enough of.

Today’s [rewind] is a throwback to episode 185 helping you identify 3 reasons why you might have high-functioning anxiety.

The thing with high-functioning anxiety is that it’s not always easy to detect.  We seem to be functioning well in our day-to-day lives, but under the surface we feel edgy, stressed, and overwhelmed. 

It’s that sense that there’s not enough time and we’re running behind. We feel tired, but wired.  Our body is telling us to slow down, but our brain is convincing us we can push harder.  I’ve been there, and I know how exhausting it is to live with anxiety.

In today’s episode, we explore 3 of the most common roots of high-functioning anxiety, and I coach you through ways you can start the healing process and help your body move out of an anxious state and return to regulation.

What is your first reaction when you think about money?

If anxiety or shame arises when it comes to managing your cash, you’re not alone (wait ‘til you hear about my panic-attack moment the first time I met with a new financial advisor).

Or maybe you feel under-educated or in over your head when it comes to making important financial decisions. 

My guest today is Meghan Dwyer, a Certified Financial Planner and host of the ‘Money Isn’t Scary’ podcast where she helps women take an active role in their money management. 

Society has fed us the narrative that women aren’t competent with money and perpetuates that claim by making a joke out of it on social media (can we stop with the IG Reels about women hiding Amazon boxes from their husbands?).

Meghan aims to empower women to make money decisions out of a sense of abundance and confidence, rather than scarcity and fear. 

3 things you’ll learn in this episode:

1. How societal messages disempower women to take a front seat when it comes to their finances.
2. The biggest areas where women play small with their money (knowledge, earning, spending, negotiation)
3. Why you feel like you can’t trust yourself with money and what to do about it

Being a mom is hard. Can we just say that without being chastised for complaining?

In today’s episode, you’ll learn 5 signs of mom burnout and a simple approach to start the healing journey.  You don’t have to overhaul your life all at once, but there are effective changes you can make today that'll make a difference in how you feel.

Before doing this work, I never thought of myself as an “emotional” person — I didn’t cry at movies, I didn’t lose my temper —but I was completely unaware of the emotional storm brewing beneath my cool exterior.

We’ve all been conditioned with implicit messages that certain emotions are unacceptable or weak (especially us women).  As a result, we can start to unconsciously suppress our own emotions.

The thing is, no matter who you are, patterns of emotional suppression will have a huge impact on your overall well-being (mental + physical).

Listen in to learn:

• The impact of bottling up emotions on your overall well-being
• Three red flags that indicate you might be suppressing your emotions
• How to shift from emotional suppression to healthy emotional management

Over the summer, we’re going to bring back some of your past favorites as part of a Friday [rewind].  These are the top downloaded episodes that you all couldn’t get enough of! 

Today’s [rewind] is a throwback to episode 75  all about how to create real and lasting change.

In order to actually create new thoughts, behaviors, feelings, and emotions, we must access our somatic intelligence.  Somatic = relating to the body.

It’s one thing to conceptually understand how you want to show up in your life, but it’s a whole other ballgame to actually do it in light of the patterning of your nervous system.

Change and growth that’s focused only on the mind, i.e., cognitive learning, will only get you so far because you’re leaving out the rest of your body from the neck down.

Listen to this episode to learn about training our body to show up more powerfully for life – to have more capacity to hold all that life continues to throw at us.

Think back to the last time you felt triggered - whether it was an eye roll from your kiddo, a rude comment from a neighbor, or being stuck in rush-hour traffic - being triggered activates our nervous system’s fight, flight, or freeze responses. 

But here’s the catch, when we’re triggered, we can’t just tell ourselves to calm down. We have to communicate safety in a way our nervous system understands.

In today’s episode, you’ll learn effective body-based tools to help communicate safety to your nervous system and bring yourself back into a state of balance. 

Learn how these practices can help discharge stress hormones, enhance sensory awareness, and promote emotional regulation.

Have you ever been angry and someone told you to “just calm down”?

Or have you ever experienced anxiety and tried to calm your body with a moment of stillness, but it just seemed to make you feel worse?

Oftentimes, when we’re in our sympathetic nervous system feeling anxious or angry, trying to calm down by taking deep breaths or meditating can be really uncomfortable.

It’s not what our body needs at the moment. 

In today’s episode, you’ll learn what your nervous system actually needs to process and release the stress, anxiety, and anger of fight-or-flight.

These body-based exercises will help you close the stress cycle and naturally come back to calmness in an unforced way.

What’s your go-to response when you’re asked to take on something new?

For the longest time, I’d automatically say yes (regardless of whether I had the time or energy).  Can you relate?

As high-achieving moms, we likely take pride in being high-capacity - you’re dependable, productive, reliable, helpful, etc. But being quick to say yes to everything can also be a fast track to burnout.

In today’s episode, I share 3 things I started saying to help me set better boundaries around my time, energy, and bandwidth, and help me recover from burnout. 

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed and pressed for time lately, this episode is for you!

Some things just go together.  Peanut butter & chocolate, mac & cheese, and perfectionism & anxiety. 😉

But in all seriousness, if you notice that you tend to have perfectionistic tendencies, you likely also manage high-functioning anxiety. 

You feel uneasy when things are out of order.  It drives you crazy when people don’t follow rules.  It’s hard to relax when the house is a mess.  You have really high expectations for yourself and others.

I get it because I’ve been there too. 

And in today’s episode, we take a look at where your perfectionism might have started and then explore 3 reasons why perfectionists tend to have high anxiety (and what to do about it).

Do you feel like you’re always rushing?  Wondering where your creativity has gone? If so, you might be stuck in “survival mode”.

The everyday and chronic stress we experience causes a physiological response in our body.

We release hormones like adrenaline and cortisol and are prompted into survival mode - fight, flight, freeze, or fawn. 

When our body doesn’t feel safe enough to return to baseline stress level, we can get stuck in a survival mode.

In today’s episode, I’ve got five signs that you might be stuck in survival mode.  Some of these signs can be subtle and most are fairly common.

So listen in to find out if you might be living in survival mode.

Have you noticed a difference between feeling tired and being chronically fatigued?

We can usually take a quick nap or go to bed early to recover from feeling tired.   But chronic fatigue is a deeper issue that requires a more holistic response.

In today’s episode, Certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, Tiffany Cagwin,  joins us to talk about some of the most common culprits of chronic fatigue and how it’s affecting working moms in particular (hint: it’s not just stress!).

3 things you’ll learn:

1. Key reasons we’re seeing an energy shortage among moms
2. The most common causes of chronic fatigue
3. Day-to-day habits that can aren’t actually energy giving

Let’s clear something up: having a healthy, regulated nervous system does not mean you’re calm all the time.  Phew!

Rather, a healthy nervous system is resilient.  It responds appropriately to stressors (but doesn't get stuck in a stress response), and can return to a state of calm when the stress has passed. It ebbs and flows in response to what’s happening around us.

In this episode, we're breaking down the top 3 reasons why having a healthy and resilient nervous system is crucial, especially as a mom.

So if you’re ready to get off the hot-mess express and are seeking more stability and resilience in the face of everyday challenges, this episode is for you!

I usually see women deal with their anger in one of two ways.  

It’s typically either “I’ve got a hot temper and it’s often on full display” or it runs more along the “I’m pretty chill, but I might be suppressing some anger” camp.

How do you deal with anger?

No matter which camp you’re in, anger is a completely normal human emotion, and most of us have no idea how to release it in a healthy way.

In today’s episode, I go through 5 subtle signs that you might be suppressing anger without realizing it. 

Some of these signs are surprising physical symptoms (like headaches and gut issues) and some are other emotions (like resentment and frustration) that are actually manifestations of suppressed anger. 

Listen in as we explore the roots of suppressed anger and how it can be showing up in your life in surprising ways.

2. How to figure out the reasons behind kids' behavior and come up with solutions together as a family - versus coming up with the "right" consequence. 
3. How to let go of the guilt that comes with parenting and pursuing our own fun and connection as women.

Your body is always communicating with you. 🗣️ Are you listening?

Have you ever had a headache or neck pain and just popped a couple Aleve?

Have you ever had trouble falling asleep and thought “I’ll just have a glass of wine to unwind”?

Do you have a history of gut issues or autoimmune conditions?

Your body might be telling you “enough is enough”.  Our body often knows our limits before our brains does.

In today’s episode, we explore some of the most common reasons we experience somatic cues of nervous dysregulation and I coach through three different signals your body may be giving you that you need to slow down and pay attention.

Want to try my nervous system nightcap? 

For the last few months, I’ve been sipping this simple recipe about 30 minutes before I go to bed and it's been a game-changer in helping me get quality sleep and have more energy during the day.

So, of course, I wanted to share it with you!

In today’s episode, I’ll give you the recipe for my nervous system nightcap, and also break down the science behind it. 

When our stress hormone cortisol is running on overdrive all day (and depleting our glycogen stores), it can wreak havoc on our sleep.

So, having a drink that naturally contains melatonin and supports our adrenal glands helps to regulate our stress response and promote relaxation and sleep.

Give this recipe a try for a few weeks and let me know how it goes. Here's to restful nights and refreshed mornings!

Three things you’ll learn in this episode:

What does your self-talk sound like when you’re feeling stressed and overwhelmed?

Is it like the Little Engine that could chanting “I think I can. I think I can. I think I can” or does that voice tend to be more critical?

Over the years, I’ve consistently relied on 3 specific reminders to help me heal from burnout and redirect my focus when I’m feeling stressed.

And I’m not talking about saying nice things to myself in the mirror.  I’m talking about mantras, affirmations, and reminders that are rooted in nervous system regulation.

Listen to this episode for these 3 powerful mantras that will help you stay grounded when you start to spiral out in stress.

What does the first hour of your day look like? 

Maybe you've gotten your AM routine down to what you think is a science.

In today's episode, you'll learn 5 common morning routines that actually increase your baseline stress levels and can cause anxiety and burnout. 

I'll teach you easy swaps to your morning routine to start your day supporting nervous system regulation (and I promise I won’t take away your coffee!)/

Recovering from burnout doesn’t happen in a day, but I can teach you how to start your mornings with intention to optimize the state of your nervous system for healing.

Managing stress is a part of life, right?  Especially as a mom, it can feel  like if it’s not one thing, it’s another. 

But here’s the thing about stress - our body is designed to experience stress as a cycle with a beginning and an end.

We perceive a stressor -> our body has a physiological response -> we go into fight-or-flight -> the stressor resolves & we’re safe -> we return to regulation.

But what happens when we’re living in a state of chronic stress?  We can get stuck in fight-or-flight and the stress cycle never completes.  And this my friends, is what leads to burnout.

But how do you know if you’re stuck in fight-or-flight? 

In today’s episode, you’ll learn five signs that your nervous system is likely stuck in flight-or-flight even if you’re not feeling angry or anxious.  Plus, we’ll discuss how to unlock the stress cycle so your body can regulate and you can move from surviving to thriving.

Have you ever felt burned out and looked ahead to a 3-day weekend or another break your calendar because you were finally going to rest and recharge? Same, friend.

Don’t get me wrong - long weekends are awesome.  But here’s the thing *spoiler alert* the whole "take time off to heal" idea might not be the magic fix you hoped for.

Burnout’s a slippery slope. It can often take years of pushing ourselves and ignoring our body’s signs to slow down before we realize how burned out we are. 

In today’s episode, I take you through my simple 6-step framework to help heal your burnout. So if you’re ready to unlock the stress cycle that leads to burnout, this episode is for you!
