In this heart-to-heart episode of The Oh My Motherhood Podcast, host Amanda Wyman, motherhood and legacy photographer, sits down with Kaitlyn Fox, full-time photographer, wife, and mom of two, to talk about one of the most universal experiences in modern motherhood — mom guilt and the comparison trap.

Together, they explore what guilt really looks like for moms who are balancing business ownership, creativity, marriage, and motherhood. Kaitlyn opens up about her journey from corporate burnout to building a thriving photography career that allows her to be present for her kids — and the pressure that still lingers to “do it all.”

You’ll hear real stories, gentle reminders, and practical strategies to:

• Break free from comparison on social media

• Release the pressure of perfect parenting

• Reframe success as a mom, creative, and woman

• Embrace “good-enough motherhood” with peace and confidence

If you’ve ever found yourself feeling like you’re falling behind — this conversation is your permission slip to let go of unrealistic standards and breathe again.

In this episode, I’m opening up about my experience with Golden Child Syndrome from how it formed in childhood, how it resurfaced in motherhood, and what therapy taught me about finally learning to ask for help. If you’ve ever struggled with guilt, perfectionism, or feeling “too much” for needing support… this episode is a must-listen.

We’ll talk about:

• Why some of us grew up feeling like we had to be the “easy one”

• How that impacts motherhood, mental health, and identity

• The science behind people-pleasing and hyper-independence

• Red flags to watch for in your own kids

• Evidence-based tools to heal, unlearn, and receive help with confidence

What does it really take to build a multi-million dollar business while raising a family? In this episode, I sit down with the incredible Katherine Moskal — mom, wife, and founder of a thriving health insurance agency serving clients across 30 states — to talk about the messy, beautiful reality of balancing motherhood and ambition.

Katherine shares how she started her business with nothing but a dream and a drive to make a difference, and how that dream has grown into a successful agency with a team of 18 and a reputation built on honesty, education, and service. But this isn’t just another highlight reel. We get extremely candid about the sacrifices that come with success: the late nights and long hours, the dedication, the exhaustion, and the ongoing effort to be both an intentional mother and a driven entrepreneur.

This conversation is a powerful reminder that success doesn’t look the same for everyone and that it’s okay if your version of “balance” shifts from day to day. Whether you’re a working mom, a business owner, or someone trying to find your footing between family and career, this episode will remind you that you’re not alone in the juggle.

✨ Tune in for honest insights, a few laughs, and the reality check you didn’t know you needed about motherhood and ambition.
