the tara bixby podcast 172. Why moms need to stop doing it all — and start focusing on what matters with Dr. Whitney Casares.
Hey friends. If you're a working mom feeling stretched too thin, drowning in demands, and simmering with that all-too-familiar mom rage… this episode is for you.
Today, I'm joined by the brilliant Dr. Whitney Casares — a Stanford-trained pediatrician, speaker, mom of two, and founder of Modern Mommy Doc and the Modern Mamas Club app. She's also the host of the Modern Mommy Doc Podcast and a powerful voice when it comes to helping moms stop doing it all and start doing what actually matters.
We're talking about...
- Why so many women feel pressure to give 100% to everything they do — and how that belief is burning us out.
- Why it's important to triage what matters most in the season you're in.
- What emotion coaching looks like and why mindful self-compassion is essential.
- The importance of giving yourself grace in the seasons you wish would move faster.
- The value of outsourcing and delegating, and why half-assing on purpose is important.
- How to create a more centered life.
- How to navigate resentment when it comes up and why honest communication with your partner matters.
...and so much more.
If this episode resonates with you, please take a second to share it with another mom who might need to hear it too. We're not meant to do this alone — and sometimes, one honest conversation can make all the difference.
