Zen Supermom: The Mental Fitness Podcast
I'm not a supermom. But I always wanted to be one and have it all: family, career/business that I love, AND the time for myself. But that ambition without proper stress resistance and resilience killed my mom (cancer at 48) and drove me to the edge of burnout twice. Only when I saw the disastrous effects of my anger, stress, and resentment on my little daughter, I knew I had to change... Since then, not only have I healed but I also helped thousands of other women all around the world through trauma-informed therapy and mental fitness training. And I decided to share the most vulnerable and valuable pieces of my and their journey here. Because if we got out of that dark, stuck place of feeling like a terrible mom, YOU CAN DO IT TOO. So choose the episode that speaks to you and tune in!

Episode #4: 3 Steps To Get Your Sparkle Back
Do you feel like you lost your sparkle?
That in between all of your responsibilities and to-do lists as a busy mom, somehow you lost yourself?
Is it still me, this person I became?
If you’ve been feeling this way, please know that it’s completely normal and I don’t know a mom who wouldn’t go through this…
But that also doesn’t mean it has to stay that way. You don’t have to wait for your kids to ‘leave the nest’ before you go back to being YOU again.
And that’s what this episode is about. It’s 3 steps to getting your sparkle back, distilled from my own experience and from coaching hundreds of women going through the same.
So let’s dive in!

Hi, I’m Alena - founder of Zen Supermom and creator of the IDTR method (Intergenerational Developmental Trauma Repatterning).
I work with thoughtful, committed parents who have already tried to understand themselves - and still find themselves reacting under pressure in ways they don’t want.
My work focuses on changing the underlying pattern that formed early, shows up in the nervous system under stress, and gets passed on to the next generation unless addressed as a whole.

A short orientation to understand what’s really driving your reactions with your kids — and what to do next.
