I want to take a moment to acknowledge all the incredible mums out there. Whether it’s Mother’s Day or just another busy day, the role you play in your family’s life is nothing short of amazing. Today, I’m diving deep into something we all struggle with—comparisonitis—and the mental load we carry as mums. It’s all too easy to get caught up in comparing ourselves to others, whether it’s how we look, what our kids are eating, or the seemingly perfect lives we see online. This episode will help you realise that you’re doing an incredible job, even if it feels like it’s never enough.
In this episode, I discuss:
Comparisonitis
How exhausting it can be.and why it's so important to recognise when it’s happening and how to break the cycle.
The Mental Load of Motherhood
Mums often wear multiple hats every day. I dive into how managing your family's needs can feel overwhelming, and how to lighten the load.
Why Perfection is Overrated
It's easy to feel like you're failing when things aren’t perfect. I discuss why embracing imperfection is key to better mental health and parenting.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed or doubting yourself, take a moment to breathe and remember that you’re doing the best you can. Your kids are loved, they’re fed, and they’re thriving. And that’s what matters.
