How many times have you said, “Fine I’ll do it myself,” because it feels easier than asking for help and then watching someone do it completely differently than you would? Before you know it, you’re doing everything yourself, feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, and wondering why so much still seems to fall on you.

But what if some of that overwhelm is connected to expectations you don’t even realize you’re carrying?

In this episode, we’re talking about high expectations in motherhood, the pressure they can quietly add to an already-full plate, and something I started noticing in my own life that changed the way I look at help, responsibility, and getting things done.

I’m letting you in on the one small shift I made that brought more relief into my life than I ever expected, and it might be exactly what you need to hear too.

xoxo, Heather
