Ever feel like you’re doing everything for everyone—but slowly losing yourself in the process?

In this heartfelt episode, we explore what it means to be a mother and a human with dreams, needs, and an identity beyond the title “Mom.” Our guest, Lisa Foster—host of the Real Life Momz podcast—shares her journey of rediscovering herself after years of giving, over-functioning, and running on empty.

Lisa opens up about the emotional toll of motherhood when your worth is tied to how much you do, and how easy it is to disappear behind the needs of others. We talk about how guilt, shame, and silent expectations keep moms stuck in burnout—and how to create small, powerful shifts that bring joy, energy, and you back into the picture.

Whether you’re a mom juggling a business, a partner wanting to better understand the mother in your life, or someone who feels lost under the weight of endless roles—this episode is a compassionate call back to self.
