Episode 125 - Overcoming Chronic Overwhelm The Sleep Sense Show

    • Kids & Family

I've been a mother for a little over 18 years now, and although I wouldn't trade those years for anything, there's no question that raising kids has been a challenge. In fact, in those 18 years, I've never spoken to a single mother who hasn't felt completely overwhelmed at one point or another. 
My guest today has a unique perspective on chronic overwhelm. She was already raising three boys when she was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. 
Her story is a real inspiration and her message is one that all mothers can benefit from in this time of near-constant uncertainty. 

She also has an amazing podcast, called Mom is In Control, "about pursuing the life you crave without sacrificing the parent you want to be." Check it out once you've finished this one!
