    Unpopular Opinion - Yoga Shouldn't Always Feel Good

    In this solo episode, Charlotte opens up about a side of yoga and mindfulness that's rarely talked about—emotional honesty. While yoga is often portrayed as a path to calm and clarity, it can also stir up deep, sometimes painful emotions. Charlotte shares her personal experiences with emotional release on the mat, the tension between wanting to feel good and needing to feel everything, and the traps of spiritual bypassing. She dives into how emotional awareness, honest communication, and full moon rituals have become key tools in her journey—not just as a yoga teacher, but as a mother, partner, and woman. If you've ever felt like you’re “doing the work” but still unsettled, this conversation is your invitation to go deeper.

    Are You Living in the Gap or the Gain?

    In this episode of Mama Time, Charlotte explores one of her favorite mindset-shifting books: The Gap and the Gain by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy. Through the lens of motherhood, she unpacks how this powerful concept can transform how we measure progress, parent with more presence, and approach our daily challenges with compassion. Instead of constantly comparing ourselves to idealized goals or expectations, The Gap and the Gain invites us to look back and measure how far we’ve come. Charlotte shares practical tools from the book to help moms shift from feeling behind to feeling proud—enhancing motivation, improving relationships, and supporting emotional well-being. Whether you’re deep in the trenches of early motherhood or navigating the chaos of everyday life, this episode is a warm reminder that you're making more progress than you think.
