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!

Ep 57: How to Stay Calm When Kids Are Not Listening
Yes, I hear you.
Kids not listening is the N.1 reason why moms start yelling.
You know shouting at your kids is bad, and you don’t enjoy all this drama either but what else can you do after you asked them nicely and patiently already like 10 times?
Of course, you blow up eventually because this is just not fair! Why are YOU the only one who’s supposed to do everything for everyone? They should all be helping too, or at least not make it so difficult!
I hear you. This story used to be on auto-loop in my head too, for longer than I’d like to admit.
Until I finally became sick of it.
If you’re done wasting time memorizing parenting scripts that don’t work anyway, then dive in with me.
Because there’s so much more going on under the surface. And once you see it, you’ll be able to take your power back and finally create a home where everyone feels happy, respected, and heard.
Want that for you and your family too?
Then come with me…

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.
🎧 Start here – Mommy Tantrum Session
A short orientation to understand what’s really driving your reactions with your kids — and what to do next.
