Do you want to finally let go of the perfectionism and unrealistic expectations that are holding you back from taking care of yourself and truly enjoying your journey of Motherhood?
In this week’s episode, I talk with Jaclyn, a Life Coach and Certified Health and Wellness Coach, who helps moms ditch the unrealistic expectations of motherhood so they can have less stress and more joy.
We dive into how Jaclyn helps other moms let go of all the “shoulds” so they can finally enjoy being great moms. She stresses on how the overwhelming unrealistic expectations of motherhood can strain our relationship with our family, friends and most of all, ourselves.
We also get real about letting go of perfection, getting past the mom guilt, and cultivating self-care, self-love, and self-compassion.
I don’t know about you, but when I hear “less stress,” I am fully on board and listening intently because all of us moms can stand to lessen the stress in our lives and allow ourselves the space and grace to truly step into our happy place.
We also talked about:
08:45 Getting past the exhaustion of being a mom
10:43 Taking time to take care of ourselves
13:08 Enjoying motherhood more
15:21 Balancing responsibilities
20:39 Brainstorming
24:40 Dealing with non-negotiables
26:46 Coming from a place of love and compassion
28:50 Hands Free Mama
31:26 Sharing the joys and the challenges
Jaclyn reminds us that we can’t pour from an empty cup and that we have to replenish our energy and remind ourselves to spare us the grace and space to be at peace with our own body and mind, before becoming anyone else for others. We can only keep up for so long and so intentional rest is necessary.

I’m a working mom, blogger, podcaster + side hustler, helping you through this crazy and imperfect road of working motherhood!
I had a dream after my daughter was born (she just turned 5!) to create a life and career that I love, while being present for my family.
I didn’t think that as working moms we should have to choose between having a career we love and an engaged and present family life.
The Working Mom Collective Blog was created out of my dream, and now I’ve taken it a step further and put the Confessions of a Working Mom Podcast out into the world!
My mission has become to help other working moms pursue their dreams, whatever they may look like (I’m not judging – You have to do what makes YOU happy mama!)
If I can reach just one other mama and show her there is a better way to pursue your career goals while raising your family, then I will consider myself successful.
Now let’s tackle this sometimes hectic, but AMAZING journey of working motherhood together!
Love,
