In this episode, we explore the pressures moms often place on themselves, the expectation to do it all, the guilt of putting ourselves first, and the challenge of maintaining our identity beyond motherhood. We discuss what truly counts as “me time,” the journey of “getting our pink back,” and the career guilt many working moms face as they balance ambition, family, and personal fulfillment. Join us as we challenge unrealistic expectations, embrace self-care without guilt, and remind ourselves that taking care of ourselves isn’t selfish…it’s essential.

In this episode, we get brutally honest about sleep… or honestly the complete lack of it. At this point, a full night’s rest feels more like a myth parents tell each other to survive.

We’re talking about our own experiences navigating sleep with kids, the different ways we approached bedtime struggles, and the never-ending debate that is co-sleeping. From doing what works for your family to questioning every parenting decision at 2 a.m., we get real about the pressure, exhaustion, and survival mode that comes with motherhood.

And of course, we couldn’t resist throwing in a little Love Is Blind parenting hot take because apparently reality TV parenting opinions are unavoidable.

If you’re tired, overstimulated, and just trying to make it through bedtime with your sanity intact… this episode is for you.

Work-life balance? We discuss who came up with this lie?

In Episode 3 of Chasing Sanity, we’re getting real about the pressure to do it all and somehow do it well. Between work, motherhood, relationships, and everything else on our plates, we’re talking about what balance is supposed to look like versus what it actually feels like day to day.

We get into the idea of “having it all,” why balance looks different for everyone, and what it really takes to set boundaries without feeling guilty right after.

Because somehow we’re expected to show up at work, be present at home, take care of everyone else, and still have something left for ourselves.

So what does balance actually look like? And is it even real, or are we all just figuring it out as we go?
