In this episode of Root to Rising, Christine sits down with Hannah Palumbo, a single mom of two boys whose vulnerable TikTok about going from a “10/10 wife” to “0/10” and rebuilding herself back up quietly went viral.Hannah opens up about the rating scale that started as a TikTok trend but became a powerful reflection tool for her own life: how she slowly went from feeling like a 10/10 wife to feeling like she was a zero, why that number was never actually real, and the rebuilding process that followed her divorce four years ago.Together, Christine and Hannah unpack the expectations women carry as wives, mothers, and professionals; the subtle ways we lose ourselves in the role; and the courageous, messy, step-by-step path to becoming a 10/10 version of yourself—not just someone else’s idea of a “good wife.”This conversation is honest, tender, and deeply practical for any woman standing at a crossroads, wondering, “Is it selfish to want more?” (Spoiler: it’s not.)Key TakeawaysYour rating is not your reality.
