  • Burnout Is Why You Wake Up Tired After a Full Night

    Burnout Is Why You Wake Up Tired After a Full Night
    2026/08/06
    Burnout rarely arrives as collapse. It arrives as a full night of sleep that changes nothing, coffee you need just to function, and small decisions that suddenly feel impossible. That is not a discipline problem. It is a body that never got the signal the threat had passed.

    Neonatologist Dr. Susan Landers and functional medicine physician Dr. Alicia Newsome walk through the early signs, the breathing that resets your nervous system, and why the harshest voice in your head is not telling the truth.

  • Working Mom Burnout Is Not Really About Doing Too Much

    Working Mom Burnout Is Not Really About Doing Too Much
    2026/06/24
    It is the end of a long day and you are lying awake doing the math on summer camps, school clothes, and a checking account you have not looked at in weeks.

    The tiredness is not just physical. So much of working-mother burnout comes from financial stress and the invisible labor no one sees or counts. The real shift is learning what you can control and what you cannot.

    In this episode, Dr. Susan Landers, a neonatologist, and Dr. Tabatha Russell, a financial strategist, break down how mindset and money are at the root of what is burning working moms out — and what actually changes things.

  • What Pediatricians Wish New Moms Knew About Baby Care

    What Pediatricians Wish New Moms Knew About Baby Care
    2026/05/05
    There is more baby advice online than any parent could ever sort through. And most of it contradicts itself.

    So how do you know what is actually true, what is outdated, and what your baby actually needs?

    In this episode, Dr. Susan Landers and Dr. Ari Brown, two physicians who between them have guided thousands of families through the earliest and most uncertain months of parenthood, answer the questions new moms are too overwhelmed or embarrassed to ask out loud.

    They cover why vitamin K and vaccines matter more than the internet debates suggest, how to build sleep routines that actually work, what toddler tantrums are really communicating, and what pediatricians wish parents understood before the first appointment.

    No conflicting advice, no algorithm-driven fear. Just two doctors telling you what they would tell their own patients.

  • Maternal Burnout Is Real — How to Recognize It Before It Gets Worse

    Maternal Burnout Is Real — How to Recognize It Before It Gets Worse
    2026/04/01
    You are not failing. You are burned out. And those are not the same thing — but when you are in the middle of it, it can be almost impossible to tell the difference.

    In this episode, Dr. Susan Landers, a neonatologist and author who has spent decades caring for mothers and newborns, walks through the real signs of maternal burnout — the emotional and physical symptoms that most moms dismiss, minimize, or push through until the bottom drops out.

    She explains why burnout is not a character flaw or a sign you are not cut out for this, and what actual recovery looks like when life does not slow down just because you need it to.

    This covers the boundaries, the rest, the support, and the self-compassion that are not luxuries — they are the only way back.

    If you have been running on empty and telling yourself you are fine, this is the episode that will finally give you permission to stop pretending.

  • Perfectionism Is Exhausting Moms — How to Rest Without the Guilt

    Perfectionism Is Exhausting Moms — How to Rest Without the Guilt
    2026/02/09
    You are not a perfectionist because you have high standards. You are a perfectionist because somewhere along the way you learned that your worth depended on getting everything right. And that belief is the most exhausting thing you carry.

    In this episode, Dr. Susan Landers breaks down what perfectionism is actually doing to burned-out moms — why it keeps joy out of reach even when everything looks fine on the outside, how to recognize your inner critic before it runs the day, and what real rest looks like when scrolling and television leave you just as depleted as you started.

    She also covers how to set boundaries without spiraling into overexplanation, and why learning to say no without a reason attached is one of the most powerful things a mother can do for her own health.

    This is not about lowering your standards. It is about stopping the belief that your value is something you have to keep proving.



    ** The FREE Kindle version of Susan's book Good Enough is Your Superpower will be available on February 10 and 11, 2026. **

  • Why Moms Snap at Their Kids and How to Actually Stop It

    Why Moms Snap at Their Kids and How to Actually Stop It
    2026/01/05
    You are a good mom. You know that. And you still lost it this morning over something small, and now the guilt is sitting on top of the exhaustion on top of everything else you are already carrying.

    In this episode, Dr. Susan Landers and Dr. Melanie Gray, a registered nurse and PhD researcher specializing in trauma-informed parenting, get to the real reason loving parents keep snapping, yelling, and shutting down — and it is not because something is wrong with you.

    It is because stress patterns get passed down through behavior, triggers activate something much older than the moment in front of you, and nobody ever taught you how to regulate before you react.

    They walk through the STOP IT framework for catching yourself before you explode, why repairing after a rupture builds more emotional safety than never losing it in the first place, and how protecting intentional family time changes the entire dynamic at home.

  • Your Baby Has RSV — When to Worry and What to Do Right Now

    Your Baby Has RSV — When to Worry and What to Do Right Now
    2025/12/05
    Your baby is struggling to breathe and you do not know if this is a wait-and-see moment or a go-to-the-ER moment. That uncertainty is one of the most frightening places a parent can be.

    In this episode, Dr. Susan Landers, a neonatologist who has spent decades caring for the most vulnerable infants, walks through exactly what RSV is, why premature babies and newborns are at highest risk, how to read the symptoms that tell you it is time to act, and what the new prevention tools — including long-acting antibodies and maternal vaccines — can do to protect your baby before illness hits.

    She also covers what you can actually do at home to support your baby's recovery and how to manage your own fear in the middle of it. Clear, calm, and evidence-based — because panicked parents need real answers, not more things to worry about.

  • What Today's High-Potency Cannabis Is Doing to Teen Brains

    What Today's High-Potency Cannabis Is Doing to Teen Brains
    2025/10/27
    The cannabis your teenager has access to today is not what it was ten years ago.

    The potency has changed, the delivery methods have changed, and the risks — to developing brains, to mental health, to unborn babies — have changed with it.

    In this episode, Dr. Susan Landers, a neonatologist and physician, lays out what the current research actually shows about high-potency cannabis and adolescent health.

    She covers cannabis use disorder, what parents should watch for, why edibles are particularly dangerous for kids, what crossing the placenta actually means for pregnant women who use cannabis, and the new RSV prevention options families should know heading into fall.

    If you have a teenager at home or a baby on the way, this is a conversation worth having before you need it.
