Join me as we uncover the invisible burdens shouldered by moms—planning, organizing, and the constant vigilance that often leads to exhaustion. I share the emotional toll of the mental load while also shedding light on research that reported benefits.

As we navigate the mental load together, I extend a supportive space for you to voice your experiences and offer a listening ear to those who need it most. Mothers are doing incredible work each day, and it's time we celebrate that. This is your moment to step back, breathe, and remember that your tireless efforts are truly remarkable.
