If you’ve been telling yourself lately, Why can’t I just stick with anything?—I want you to take a breath right now.

Because this episode is for the mom who is exhausted, overwhelmed, and quietly blaming herself for not following through… especially in January, when the pressure to do better feels relentless.

Here’s what I want you to hear clearly: this is not a motivation problem, and it’s not a willpower problem either.

If you’re dealing with mom burnout, the issue is almost always your environment—not your character.

In this episode, I break down why parenting motivation feels so hard right now, how willpower is getting unfairly blamed, and what actually helps moms move forward without more pressure or guilt.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

Why willpower fails moms—especially burned-out moms
If discipline were the problem, you’d already have this figured out. You use willpower all day long for everyone else.
How mom burnout drains your ability to “follow through”
Emotional regulation, decision-making, interruptions—it all adds up, and your energy doesn’t magically replenish at night.
The real reason habits stick (or don’t)
Habits succeed when friction is low and fail when friction is high—and that has everything to do with your environment.
How changing your environment creates parenting motivation
Support, accountability, and fewer barriers matter more than pushing yourself harder.
Why support works better than pressure
Pressure says try harder. Support asks, What’s in your way—and how can we remove it?
