Ever found yourself playing with your kids but thinking about emails - then sat at your laptop thinking about the kids - and feeling like you’re failing at both?
That knot-in-your-stomach guilt that you’re never giving enough anywhere and you’re stretched so thin it hurts?
You’re not broken - and you’re certainly not alone.
This is one of the biggest struggles I hear from high-achieving women and mums inside the BBB community.
In today’s episode, I’m breaking down exactly why this guilt shows up, what’s really hiding underneath it, and how you can start to shift it - gently and realistically.
We’ll talk about:
- Why guilt loves to creep in (spoiler: it’s not because you’re failing, it’s because you care)
- The myth of being “fully present” everywhere, all the time — and how to drop that impossible standard
- A real story from my own life (and my BBB-ers) about juggling motherhood, work, and still finding a moment to breathe
- Three practical tools you can try this week to soothe the guilt and feel more “enough” right now
Plus, I’ll leave you with a gentle reminder you can come back to on the days you feel pulled in every direction: you don’t need to be perfect - you just need to be human.
And you are.
