Unmasked and Unbothered

Brianna Sanders

Unmasked and Unbothered is a soft, honest space for women—especially single moms—who are done shrinking, code-switching, and settling. Hosted by Bri, a single mom, recovering people-pleaser, and unmasking autistic woman who’s choosing herself in real time, this podcast dives into what it really takes to build a peaceful, pleasure-filled life after survival mode. From navigating dating with an open heart and strong boundaries, to letting go of shame, to rebuilding self-trust—you’ll find raw reflections, confidence-boosting reminders, and permission to show up exactly as you are. We’re not chasing perfection here. We’re unlearning, reclaiming, and becoming the version of ourselves we were always meant to be. ✨ New episodes when I have something real to say. ✨ Come as you are.

    Episode 12: Long time no see, major life update and tea sesh

    Send a text It’s been a minute! I haven’t recorded since late December, and so much has happened since then. In this episode, I’m catching you up on everything—starting with my new job at a vegan bakery and how content creation (aside from the podcast) hasn’t been resonating with me lately. Plus, I had started dating again in December, but as of 2/22, I’ve committed to a 100-day dating break. I’ll be diving into what led to this decision, the patterns I’ve noticed, and what I’m hoping to gain from this pause.

    Episode 11: Finding balance as a single mom/Can you really have it all?

    Send a text **Not me getting through recording the whole episode and editing it halfway through to realize that I completely forgot the word "imbalance" existed lol. If you can't tell, it' was the end of a long day that I recorded this so my brain wasn't working as well as it usually does. Just pretend I said imbalance instead of unbalance mkay? Thankies! The pressure to “have it all” as a single mom can feel overwhelming. Between work, parenting, and trying to make time for yourself, it’s easy to feel like you’re constantly falling short. But is balance truly achievable, or is it just a myth? In this episode, I’m breaking down: 👉 The unrealistic expectations placed on single moms. 👉 How to redefine “balance” in a way that works for YOU. 👉 Setting realistic goals based on the level of support you have (or don’t have). 👉 Tips for creating a life that feels manageable and fulfilling, even on tough days. Let’s talk about ditching the guilt and embracing a new mindset that prioritizes what really matters. 🔗 Links & Resources: Join our supportive community: https://discord.gg/FGyArx9Q76Access exclusive content: patreon.com/BriBriSanders💌 Don’t forget to subscribe, like, and comment your thoughts on balance as a single mom.
