    In terms of drawbacks, some listeners may find that certain episodes don't resonate with them as much as others.

However, this is subjective and dependent on personal experiences.

    Overall, The For The Love of Chaos podcast is a must-listen for any mom who needs a good laugh and some reassurance that she's not alone in her chaotic journey through motherhood.

          When people ask me how I do it all. I have one short answer..."I don't."  Too many times as mommas, we allow ourselves to become overwhelmed by the unending tasks.  Anxiety and depression is triggered when we feel like we can't possibly measure up to mommas on Instagram and social media who seem to have it all together.  Life is not meant to be perfectly scheduled.  Sometimes it is best to ditch that to-do list and be in the moment with your kids.  Give yourselves grace, throw the laundry off to the side,  and enjoy the magic of ordinary every day moments.
