EPISODE 68 — Why Winter Makes Moms Lose Their Patience (And How to Stay Grounded)

• Does winter make everything feel louder, heavier, and more suffocating — like your patience is evaporating faster than you can catch it? • Have you snapped at your kids over something small and immediately felt that wave of guilt crash over you? • Do you ever wonder, “Why can’t I handle this?” even though you’re trying so hard to hold everything together?

In this episode, I’m sharing why winter quietly shrinks your emotional capacity, steals the tiny resets your body relies on, and makes even the smallest things feel impossibly heavy — and how that has nothing to do with you failing or losing your patience on purpose. I walk you through the emotional, sensory, and nervous-system shifts that happen during winter, why your reactions feel bigger, and how to gently reconnect to yourself through grounding that actually works in this season of motherhood.

This conversation is for the mom who has been overstimulated for weeks, carrying more than anyone sees, and craving a softer, steadier way to move through her days.
