Send us a textMom guilt is something that follows us around from the moment you get pregnant, “I do not think I ate healthy enough today”, and sticks with us forever, “Why did I yell so much today”. We always want to encourage women to be the best moms that they can be but we also want to shift from mom guilt to mom grace. Motherhood is hard and sometimes we are our own hardest critics. This week we talk about how we are trying to shift from guilt to grace when it comes to our mindset of being a mom.

Hey mama! This episode is a must-listen if you've ever felt like you're drowning in motherhood, convincing yourself “this is just how it is,” or talking yourself out of getting support because it feels indulgent, selfish, or “not necessary.” Today, Laura sits down with Raven—a mom of five, homeschooling pro, football-coach wife, online business manager, and full-on chaos navigator—to unpack one of the biggest traps moms get stuck in: believing they're not allowed to want more.This conversation is raw, hilarious, emotional, and honestly… healing. Raven brings the exact thoughts so many moms are silently living with: I don't have a choice. I can't spend money on myself. My chaos is just who I am. Other women can thrive, but not me. And Laura—through coaching, compassion, and a whole lot of truth bombs—helps her see what's actually going on underneath that guilt.You're going to hear the exact mindset patterns keeping moms stuck in survival mode—and how to finally step into a version of life that feels peaceful, fun, intentional, and yes… free.Inside this episode:The mental gymnastics moms do when spending money on themselvesWhy investments in our emotional wellbeing feel “indulgent” (spoiler: conditioning)The “Chad Filter” and how men make decisions without the guilt spiralWhy chaos can feel familiar—and why our brains cling to itThe difference between discomfort that keeps you stuck vs discomfort that leads to growthHow motherhood martyrdom gets passed from generation to generationWhat it actually means to model joy, freedom, and fun for your kidsHow your energy affects your business, your family, and your ability to thriveThe real fear behind joining Free the Moms (and why it's totally normal)If you've ever scrolled a sales page 12 times, gone back and forth for days, or felt that gut pull toward something that could help you—only to talk yourself out of it—this episode will feel like taking a breath you didn't know you were holding.✨ Ready to start feeling free?Get your 7-day free trial of Free the Moms athttps://lauraconley.com/freethemoms
We've been told screens are bad, that too much time in front of them will ruin our kids… cue the mom guilt. But the truth? It's more complicated than that.In this episode, we're getting real about how we use screen time — the messy “balance” we're all trying to find — and how to make it work for our families instead of against us. We talk about living in a tech-heavy world, being part of the last generation (hey, millennials!) who grew up both with and without screens, and now raising kids who've never known life any other way. From iPads to TV to FaceTiming family, we dive into the uses, the judgment, the guilt, and how to give ourselves permission to use technology with intention, purpose, and peace.

Today's episode looks a little different—Abby is solo behind the mic to share something that's been weighing on her heart: the tug-of-war between loving motherhood and missing freedom.Freedom has always been one of Abby's top core values, but motherhood changes everything.

She opens up about the moments when she wonders, “How did I even get here?” and how she's learning to shift her focus from what's been lost to what's been gained.From navigating kids' sports schedules to redefining productivity, Abby brings honesty, humor, and heart to this discussion. She reminds us that while this season can feel long and heavy, it's also fleeting—and filled with growth, love, and unexpected joy.LINKS AND RESOURCES:FORAGE KITCHEN: Check out your nearest - https://www.eatforage.com/HERSELF PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/herselfpodcastLet's connect!HERSELF INSTAGRAM: http://instagram.com/herselfpodcastMEET AMY: http://instagram.com/ameskieferMEET ABBY: http://instagram.com/abbyrosegreenThis episode was brought to you by the Pivot Ball Change Network.

Nobody ever told me it was ok to disappoint people. But instead to silence myself so no one was uncomfortable, while feeling like I always had to be "on". And that's especially hard if you're a black mother, struggling to balance showing up for everyone and everything, but not prioritizing yourself. So when I sat down with Shirria McCullough, a therapist for ambitious millennial moms focused on their self care without mom guilt, she said something so on point. "Moms deserve to be happy and kids deserve happy moms."We also get into how black women also feel pressured to show up, say less, and still be grateful and why we truly don't owe anyone anything. Oh and Cardi B lately!Listen to part one of our deep conversation, on Spotify and Apple Podcasts!Support Shirria

Join todayWhat if chasing health and beauty ends up making us sick, anxious, and disconnected?This episode is all about choosing joy instead of fear and questioning the pressure to do everything “right,” from Botox to seed oils. That lens applies to everything, hair dye, kids' snacks, and even the bread at an Italian restaurant.

Did your motherhood story turn out the way you hoped? Even if it didn't, God is still writing something beautiful. Motherhood is both messy and miraculous. Even the president of MOPS faced heartbreak in motherhood. When Elisa Morgan led MOPS, she encouraged millions of moms — but behind the scenes, her own motherhood journey was far from perfect. In this candid conversation, Elisa shares the struggles and blessings of parenting, how she found God's faithfulness in the hard seasons, and why she believes mentoring younger women is one of the most powerful ways to build strong homes of faith, especially when motherhood doesn't look the way you expected. If you've ever felt like you're not enough as a mom, this conversation will remind you that God is present in every part of your story. Whether you're a new mom or an empty nester, hope and healing are always possible.

Feeling torn between chasing your goals and being present with your kids? You're not alone. Today, we unpack one of the most universal struggles for modern moms—mom guilt. From navigating judgment (from others and ourselves) to redefining what it means to be a “good mom,” we share how years of trial, error, and experience have shaped our confidence as both mothers and entrepreneurs. We explore what happens when guilt turns into growth, how to respond when your kids want more of you, and why compassion (not criticism) is the real key to peace. We also flip the script entirely—asking what would happen if we replaced “mom guilt” with “mom confidence.” You'll learn:Why mom guilt shows up (and what it's really trying to tell you)How to navigate travel, work, and family time without losing yourself in the processThe difference between self-criticism and self-compassion—and how to make the shiftWhy confidence often grows through moments of guilt and discomfortHow to reframe your mindset to lead with intention, not obligation Connect with Whitney & Stephanie: captureyourconfidencepodcast@gmail.comStephanie IG: @_stephanie_hanna_The Other 85: https://theother85.net/Whitney IG: @whitneyabrahamJoin the State of Women Conference on October 9, 2025: https://whitneyabraham.kartra.com/page/stateofwomenconference
