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 139: Reacting Like a Child When Triggered? 2 Steps to Become a Focused Adult Again
I used to flip into a childish reaction whenever it was too much for me, my daughter didn't listen, we were running late, or she kept asking for more attention while I already gave her more than I ever got...
So in these moments, when I've had enough, I just started yelling, making mean faces or comments, or even wished I could hurt her back so that she would know how it feels...
It took me longer than I'd wish to admit.
But at least the good news is that not only I figured it out, and I'm able to be the safe adult, no matter how much drama and big emotions are flying around me.
But it worked for hundreds of moms inside the Zen Supermom program and thousands of women I helped through my free content...
So what are those two steps?
What do you need to stop reacting like a child when it gets too much?
