Why 18 summers is a myth: letting go of the mom guilt

In this episode, we talk about the pressure moms feel when they're told they only have 18 summers with their kids and how it adds to the already overwhelming responsibilities (and guilt).

Ah Ha Moments:

  • This is a toxic time message that really only we (women/mothers) hear

  • The patriarchy and capitalism strike again, these guilt tripping messages shape what people expect from us and limit your potential.

  • Taking care of yourself is nonnegotiable. Period.

  • Why it's crucial for you to take care of yourself too, even though you're often told to sacrifice everything for your kids.

Tune in to Chill Like a Mother as we talk about what it's like to be the default parent, how to take care of yourself, and create a world that's equitable and supportive for everyone.
