#47 - Feeling Overwhelmed? How to Release Mom Guilt, Reduce Stress, and Enjoy This Season
In this episode, I get real about the pressure moms carry—especially during pregnancy/postpartum and the holiday season. If you’ve been battling mom guilt, pregnancy body image struggles, and the never-ending mental load, this conversation is going to feel like a deep breath.
We dive into why most moms live in constant “giving mode”, trying to create the magic for everyone else while running on empty themselves. And we explore a different path:✨ What if “easy” was actually right?✨ What if slowing down made motherhood more magical—not less?✨ What if presence mattered more than the to-do list?
You’ll hear Chandler’s honest experience with this pregnancy, how her body image has shifted, what she’s learning about capacity vs. load, and why overwhelm doesn’t make you a better mom—presence does.
This episode is for the mom who feels stretched thin… the mom navigating body changes… the mom trying to juggle it all… and the mom who secretly wonders if she’s doing enough.
If you’re craving more peace, more connection, and more permission to be human—this is your episode.Connect with me more at my Instagram, I'd love to hear from you!@withchanyoucanAnd if you liked this episode, please remember to like, rate, subscribe and share with your friends!
