This week, Jill and Linda dive into the messy, often interrupted journey of building resilience as moms and how self-care plays a pivotal role. From car troubles to toddler birthday cake improvisations, we share the highs and lows of parenting and how embracing imperfection helps us grow stronger. Here’s what we unpack in this episode:

• How self-care is not just about pampering but building the emotional and physical stamina to handle life's chaos.
• Sharing the realities of parenting wins and setbacks, including creative cake fixes and resting through sickness.
• How setting personal incentives can help us prioritize self-care amidst busy schedules, and why boundaries matter for moms and kids alike.
• Navigating tantrums, hunger-fueled emotions, and how meeting basic needs connects to emotional resilience.
• Balancing emotional expression with boundaries and learning to parent while reparenting ourselves.

Resilience doesn’t mean avoiding emotions but learning to navigate them. Sometimes, having snacks at the ready (for kids and moms alike!) can be a game-changer.
