In this light-hearted and fun video, I share a personal story about a time when carrying too much brought out the worst in me. This experience turned into a powerful metaphor for life, especially for mothers of babies and young children. If you’re in a season where you feel overwhelmed by responsibilities or emotions, this video is for you. I offer real encouragement and practical advice on the importance of self-care during challenging times. Join me for a relatable and uplifting conversation!

Thank you!! I really needed to hear this today. Exactly what I've been struggling with having two kids 3 and under.

I have a newborn baby (7 weeks old) and one of my friends offered to watch my toddler on weekday mornings for a while ( and we pay her), and it’s been so amazing. Our kids love to spend time together! A mutual friend offered to watch her if she couldn’t, and she watched her this morning, and our kids had fun together as well. I feel so lucky to have such good friends. I take a nice warm bath every other day as self care… yesterday I almost didn’t get it as baby was cluster feeding in the evening. I thought he went to sleep but he didn’t. I was so glad my husband helped me with holding baby, and put off his next feed as long as he could, so I could get a sweet 15 minutes in the bath tub. I totally need some me time sometimes that isn’t just doing chores!
