MomFuel & Mindset

Chrissy & Jess

You've read the books. You know you should prioritize yourself. You're still last on your own list every single night. MomFuel & Mindset is the podcast for the mom who gives everything to everyone and is quietly running on empty while holding the whole world together. We're Chrissy and Jess, two real friends, two moms in the thick of it and we built this podcast because we got tired of pretending we had it together. Every week we show up with raw honest conversation and practical tools for the moments that actually break you. The overstimulation. The invisible mental load nobody sees. The reactive moment you replay at 2am. The guilt that follows you to bed. We don't sugarcoat it. We don't pretend it's easy. And we never make you feel like you're the only one struggling. Because you're not broken. You're just running on empty in a world that keeps asking you to give more. New episodes every Thursday. Come as you are. 💜 Chrissy & Jess

    Momfuel & Mindset - Episode 19: The Re-Connect Room Launch.

    Send us Fan Mail In this powerful and deeply personal episode, Jess is joined by her husband, Jim, for an honest conversation about their marriage journey, how they went from the brink of divorce to building a relationship that is now healthy, connected, and thriving. Before we dive in, we want to acknowledge that Chrissy is taking time away to be with her family during a very trying time. While she is exactly where she needs to be, her heart is heavy knowing she’s missing this incredibly meaningful conversation. We’re holding her close and sending love as she navigates this season. Together, Jess and Jim open up about the struggles, disconnection, hard truths, and inner work it took to rebuild trust, strengthen communication, and create the kind of marriage they once thought was out of reach. This episode is proof that healing is possible when both people are willing to grow, and that sometimes the biggest transformation starts within. Jess also shares the heart behind launching The Reconnect Room, a space for women who are ready to stop waiting for things to change and start doing the deep personal work needed to show up as their best selves in their relationships. If your marriage feels heavy, distant, or stuck, this episode will remind you that change is possible. Listen in, feel seen, and take your first step toward reconnecting.

  2. Momfuel & Mindset - Episode 17: Parenting through Adversity w/ special guest Dr. Stefanie Mikulics.

    APR 16

    Momfuel & Mindset - Episode 17: Parenting through Adversity w/ special guest Dr. Stefanie Mikulics.

    Send us Fan Mail What happens when the woman who spends her life caring for others is suddenly forced to receive care herself? In this powerful episode, we sit down with Dr. Stefanie Mikulics, a board-certified OB/GYN whose world shifted when she was faced with a life-altering diagnosis that challenged not only her body, but her identity. What followed wasn’t just a medical journey—it was an unraveling and rebuilding of self, purpose, and worth. We talk about what it really looks like to mom through adversity while navigating fear, uncertainty, and deep internal change… and how true healing goes far beyond the physical. This conversation explores: Letting go of the “strong one” identity, The mind-body connection in healing, Learning to receive instead of always giving, Reclaiming your voice, worth, and inner peace. Dr. Mikulics also shares a glimpse into her upcoming book—a deeply personal reflection born from her experience being diagnosed, undergoing both a lumpectomy and mastectomy, and standing at the crossroads of fear, uncertainty, and the weight of conventional medicine. But her book is more than a story of illness. It is a journey of awakening—into the mind-body-spirit connection, into surrender, and into the understanding that healing isn’t always about battles won… but grace received. If you’ve ever felt like you had to hold it all together while everything was shifting underneath you… this one is for you.
