In this episode, Megan and Laura unpack the rising anxiety so many parents are feeling right now, but don’t worry, we’re not here to add to the noise. We’re here to help lighten the load.
From the invisible mental strain of parenting to financial stress and the endless digital overwhelm, we get honest about what’s really weighing us down. We share our own stories, validate the daily chaos you might be navigating, and offer some deeply reflective (and surprisingly satisfying) questions that can help bring clarity, calm, and a bit more control back into your life.
We’re diving into:
Why anxiety feels like the new baseline for parents
The emotional cost of doing it all (and doing it alone)
How modern life erodes community—and why rebuilding it matters
Letting go of pressure and reassessing your values
The questions you actually need to ask to move forward with more peace
This isn’t about bubble baths and deep breathing—this is about getting real, reclaiming your time, and remembering who you are underneath the mental load.
