    You’ve Been Holding It Together Too Long with Cherise Small, LCSW

    Have you become so good at holding everything together that no one realizes you’re struggling? Maybe you’re still showing up. The kids are getting where they need to go. The calendar is managed. The work is getting done. Everyone knows they can rely on you. But underneath all of that, you’re exhausted, irritable, overwhelmed, disconnected, resentful, or just not feeling like yourself anymore. In this episode of The We Got You Mama Show, Carly sits down with Cherise Small, LCSW, licensed therapist, speaker, founder of The Healing Point Therapy & Wellness and Release2Heal, and author of You’ve Been Holding It Together. Together, they unpack the pressure mothers feel to keep everything running while also appearing emotionally steady. Cherise explains why functioning is not the same thing as being well, what hidden survival mode can look like, and why many women become disconnected from their own needs while spending years caring for everyone else. They also explore one of the biggest identity shifts in motherhood: realizing that you do not necessarily need to get back to the woman you were before children. Instead, you can begin asking, Who am I becoming now? This episode covers: • Hidden signs of survival mode • The pressure to constantly say “I’m fine” • Emotional exhaustion and resentment • Feeling disconnected from yourself • Identity changes after becoming a mother • Sustainable boundaries • Why boundaries are not about shutting people out • Learning to say “I’m not available” • Stopping the need to overexplain • Checking in with yourself before saying yes • Being honest about what you can actually handle • Asking people you trust for support • Why you deserve the same care you give everyone else • What emotional wellness can realistically look like for busy moms Cherise also helps Carly work through a real-life example of something many women struggle with: wanting to help, knowing you technically can help, but realizing that saying yes may still come at a cost. Sometimes the most important question is not: Can I do this? It is: Do I actually need to take this on right now? ABOUT CHERISE Cherise Small, LCSW is a licensed therapist, speaker, and author of You’ve Been Holding It Together. She is the founder of The Healing Point Therapy & Wellness and Release2Heal, where she supports women who have spent years being the one others rely on and are now ready to tell the truth about what they actually need. Her work focuses on emotional clarity, sustainable boundaries, identity transitions, and releasing the pressure to appear “fine” while navigating major life roles like motherhood, partnership, and leadership.

    How to Build a Business and Still Be Present as a Mom | Julie Kraschinsky

    Can you build a business, raise a family, pursue your own dreams, and still actually enjoy your life? In this episode of The We Got You Mama Show, Carly sits down with Julie Kraschinsky, Founder & CEO of Julie K Coaching, for an honest conversation about entrepreneurship through the many seasons of motherhood. Julie shares her journey from corporate America to becoming a stay-at-home mom, building a thriving direct sales business while raising two young children, moving her family 3,000 miles across the country, rebuilding her community, navigating divorce, and eventually creating an entirely new chapter through Julie K Coaching and The Joyful CEO Life. Together, Carly and Julie unpack the pressure so many mothers feel to do everything themselves—and why success often comes when we stop treating struggle like a badge of honor. They discuss creative ways to find support before you can afford a full team, babysitting swaps, delegating, time blocking, involving your children in your business, and the importance of being fully present in whichever role you’re in at that moment. Julie also shares what motherhood looks like from the other side now that her children are adults—and why the desire to create, contribute, and pursue something of your own doesn’t disappear simply because you become a mother. In this episode: • Building a business while raising young children • Moving from “balance” to harmony • Delegating before you feel financially ready • Creative childcare and babysitting swaps • Why asking for help matters • Building your village through different seasons • Navigating divorce and major life transitions • Personal development, affirmations, and choosing joy • Being present with your kids while still pursuing your dreams • What children learn by watching an entrepreneurial mom • Motherhood when your children become adults • Creating a life and business you genuinely love One of the biggest reminders from this conversation? You don’t have to choose between loving motherhood and wanting something of your own. You can build both—but you were never meant to build either one completely alone. ABOUT JULIE Julie Kraschinsky is the Founder and CEO of Julie K Coaching and creator of The Joyful CEO Life. With more than 30 years of leadership, sales, entrepreneurship, and personal-development experience, Julie helps women gain clarity, create more energy, and build prosperous businesses and lives rooted in joy. She is also the Executive Managing Director of the Calabasas, California Chapter of eWomenNetwork, where she brings together and empowers women entrepreneurs.

    Pelvic Floor PT: What’s Normal, What’s Not & How to Heal After Birth | Lindsay Brunner, PT, DPT

    Have you ever been told that leaking when you sneeze, pelvic pressure, painful intimacy, or chronic back pain after having a baby is "just part of motherhood"? In this episode of the We Got You Mama Show, Carly Church sits down with pelvic floor and orthopedic physical therapist Lindsay Bruner, PT, DPT, OCS, to uncover what every woman should know about pelvic floor health, postpartum recovery, and why so many moms are living with symptoms they don't have to accept. Lindsay explains what the pelvic floor actually is, how pregnancy and childbirth impact these important muscles, and why issues like urinary leakage, prolapse symptoms, constipation, lower back pain, hip pain, abdominal separation (diastasis recti), and pelvic tension are far more connected than most women realize. Together, Carly and Lindsay discuss: • What the pelvic floor does and why it matters • Signs of pelvic floor weakness vs. pelvic floor tension • Why urinary leakage is common—but not normal • The connection between pelvic floor dysfunction, back pain, and hip pain • Postpartum recovery timelines and what to realistically expect • When to seek help from a pelvic floor physical therapist • Returning to exercise safely after pregnancy and birth • Why healing and recovery are essential parts of motherhood One of the most powerful messages from this conversation is simple: Common does not equal normal. Just because many women experience symptoms after pregnancy doesn't mean they should suffer through them. Help is available, healing is possible, and it's never too late to seek support—even years after having your baby. Whether you're currently pregnant, newly postpartum, years into motherhood, or supporting someone who is, this episode offers practical education, reassurance, and empowering information that every family should hear.
