In this episode of If I Knew Then: Mom Edition, host Maria Moreno sits down with Becky Clark, a Nervous System & Somatic Regulation Coach, to explore the link between emotional overwhelm, stress, and the body’s natural need for safety and regulation.
Together, they unpack the hidden effects of motherhood on the nervous system — from constant overstimulation and burnout to the guilt that comes with slowing down. Becky shares practical tools to help moms move from survival mode to embodied calm through somatic awareness, grounding techniques, and nervous-system-based self-care.
This heart-to-heart conversation is a reminder that you don’t need to “fix” yourself to feel better — you just need to come home to your body.
✨ If you’ve ever felt anxious, disconnected, or like your emotions are “too much,” this episode will change the way you relate to your body and your motherhood journey.
