Episode Synopsis

Feeling like you've lost your confidence since becoming a mom?
Are you constantly second-guessing your parenting choices?
Do you find yourself searching the internet, apps, or mom groups for answers you used to be able to find within yourself?
What if instead of looking outward, you could start rebuilding the trust you have in yourself—right here, right now?
It's possible. And it's simpler than you think.
In today’s episode, we’re talking about something that comes up in nearly every conversation I have with new moms: how motherhood can completely shake your sense of self-trust.
If you're a high-achieving first-time mom who was used to being confident, decisive, and on top of your game—this episode is especially for you.
Inside this episode, you’ll learn:

Why self-trust often disappears in early motherhood (especially for ambitious women)
The real reasons behind your constant Googling and second-guessing
How the pressure to "get it right" can drown out your inner voice
Why your inner critic gets louder in this season—and how to gently turn the volume down
5 practical, therapeutic steps to start rebuilding trust in yourself today
How Internal Family Systems (IFS) work can help you reconnect with the wise, capable woman you still are
What it really means to become your own expert in motherhood

If you've been feeling like you don’t even recognize yourself anymore… if you’re caught between who you were and who you’re becoming… this episode is your invitation to slow down, breathe, and come back home to yourself.
Because you can be the kind of mother who leads with confidence—not perfection. One decision at a time.
