Feeling stretched thin, stuck in guilt, and trying to do it ALL? You're not alone. In this episode of Imperfect Mommying, I welcome Christy Gamir—a therapist turned mom coach—who shares her personal and professional journey through burnout, working motherhood, and what it really takes to release the pressure of being “perfect.”We dive into the emotional weight moms carry, from unrealistic expectations to lost community support, and how shifting our mindset (especially dropping the word should) can change everything. Whether you're juggling a demanding career, managing motherhood solo, or simply feeling overwhelmed by it all—this conversation offers real talk, relief, and practical tools.Christi is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York State, a National Certified Counselor and a Coach for Moms. She is a mom of two kids who are 8 and 4 years old. Christi has worked in community mental health settings for nearly 10 years in therapist and management positions before opening a private therapy practice. After the birth of her first child, Christi learned just how hard it was to juggle the challenges of parenthood with a demanding career. This was exacerbated when her second child was born, bringing about it's own unique set of difficulties. Since then, Christi has transitioned into coaching where she uses what she learned through personal experience and her work as a therapist to help other stressed out moms with demanding careers to overcome burnout so they can feel more connected to their spouse and kids without guilt and resentment Christi currently resides in Syracuse, NY with her husband and two children. When she's not working or driving her kids to their many activities, she enjoys spending time with friends, being outside and watching Survivor with her husband.Connect with Christi:

Joan Sotkin, a renowned financial and prosperity coach, joins us to share her unique insights into the deep emotional ties we have with money, especially when chaos seems to rule the day. As we navigate through uncertain political landscapes marked by figures like Donald Trump and Elon Musk, Joan helps us uncover how our financial feelings often echo personal emotions rather than our actual bank balances. We explore how fear can cloud our judgment during turbulent times, highlighting the need to reshape our habitual financial emotions to empower better decision-making. Our journey continues with an enlightening discussion on how hope serves as a powerful antidote to life's chaos.

In Crystal's words:  I was raised in a strict Mormon household with teachings about my purpose in life was only to be a wife and mother. At a young age, I knew there was more planned for me than this and I struggled with conforming to Mormon values. My parents pressured me into a young marriage when they discovered that I was having premarital sex. At age 18, the marriage was dissolved, and I wavered participating in the church for years. I struggled with finding a sense of belonging and turned to a partying lifestyle. At 34 years old, I was "sick and tired of being sick and tired." That night I walked into a sober support meeting I knew that's where I belonged. I cried and allowed other people to help me. I dove into the 12 steps and grew my sober support network. After 10 years of sobriety, I switched from traditional sober support meetings to secular. I haven't been happier! Such a relief that I am no longer triggered by the G word. Currently, I own a behavior health agency, I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and I have a passion for working with couples with addiction and codependency issues. With grief about infertility, I have redefined family from the ingrained Mormon beliefs that I was taught as a child. Today I embrace the roles as wife, step-mom, grandmother and dog momma., I'm excited to publish this memoir next year about how I recovered from religious trauma and hope my story can help someone else. We're not alone!  How to redefine family after religious trauma.  3 Top Tips  Trust your intuition Question everything Don't listen to your parents Social Media IG @crystal_redefines_family FB Crystal Redefines Family redefinefam.com

I was a teenager when I picked up the guitar, and suddenly, I had the one thing I'd been looking for to craft the songs I'd been waiting to write. -Sarah Blacker This up-close and personal interview was recorded in my living room with a singer/songwriter who grew up down the street. We met when she was a teenager…and a friend of my daughter Colleen's. Years later, Sarah Blacker continues doing what she loves best: bringing comfort and joy to audiences large and small as a dynamic live performer. Heralded by the Huffington Post for her “infectious, well-written songs,” Sarah was named the 2024 Female Performer of the Year by the New England Music Awards. But there's so much more to Sarah's story because she harnesses the healing power of music as a Board-Certified Music Therapist and LMHC or Licensed Mental Health Counselor. Explains Sarah: “Listening to music can open up neuro-pathways. Music is magic. It gets us high. Sometimes, when I'm sitting there with Alzheimer's patients, my mind is blown, and my heart is exposed because I know that music is what unlocked a patient's memory.” A graduate of the Berklee College of Music, Sarah discovered music therapy during a tour of the school and realized that this academic path encompassed everything she had always loved about music. A survivor of life on the road as a musician, Sarah misses the audience but not the grueling schedule of an independent musician. “I lived on Dunkin Donuts for days, all for the love of music and those glorious moments when I got to be on stage, pouring my heart out, trying to connect with an audience.” The daughter of two music lovers, Sarah says that music was always playing at her house. “My dad had the greatest music collection of all time, everything from Paul Simon and Pink Floyd to Tubular Bells, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Seals & Crofts. My mom would make up her own silly songs. It was a creative household.” As a teen, Sarah's musical role models were all- female, including Tori Amos, Joni Mitchell, Fiona Apple and Paula Cole. Learning to play the guitar is what completed Sarah Blacker as an artist. Says Sarah: “It was like opening the gates to everywhere I ever wanted to go.” For an inspiring 24-minute musical journey, just hit that download button. #music #musictherapy #songwriter #singer

Allison Freeman is the visionary behind Attuned Pathways, a support group for neurodivergent parents most of which are raising neurodivergent children. She is the first person that I know of in the world to run a group like this. She joins us to explore the unique landscape of support (and the lack of) for neurodivergent parents. Our conversation reveals the underrepresented challenges ND parents face, spotlighting the relief and understanding offered by Allison's vibrant community. We discuss the transformative power of parents recognizing their own neurodivergence, and how such awareness can revolutionize family dynamics, offering a deeper, more compassionate support system for their children. As the holiday season approaches, we also tackle the stressors that can arise during family gatherings. The invaluable support provided by Allison's Attuned Pathways emerges as a beacon during these times, offering a sanctuary for brainstorming solutions, sharing, learning, and growth. About Allison Freeman Allison's journey into therapy and coaching is rooted in her belief that deep healing for neurodivergent individuals happens in community.

When the opportunity to interview Animal Communicator Ellie Laks was presented, I jumped at the opportunity! Who doesn't want to know what their pet is thinking? Or other animals too! Ellie is a remarkable animal communicator and the visionary founder of The Gentle Barn. In this episode, she opens up about embracing her intuitive gift of animal communication and gives tips about how to understand your own animals. She shares her extraordinary journey of connecting with animals from a young age, leading her to establish a sanctuary in 1999 that serves as a peaceful haven for creatures in need. Her insights reveal the emotional and ethical challenges faced in animal rescue, providing a heartfelt exploration of the compassion required to care for animals who might otherwise be forgotten. About Ellie Laks Ellie Laks founded The Gentle Barn in 1999; it was a dream of hers since she was seven years old. Animals were always very healing and nurturing to her as she faced the challenges of growing up, finding herself, fitting in, feeling understood, etc. She majored in special education and psychology, and with her special love of animals and children, The Gentle Barn was a perfect way of putting all her talents and passions into one. She's the author of two books about her experiences.
