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!

In this week’s Zen Supermom Podcast, Charlene opens up about: The night she became her child’s “first bully” Why trying harder or reading more parenting books didn’t work How her people-pleasing and perfectionism were rooted in childhood What finally helped her heal the “red mist” and stay calm through tantrums The powerful shift that made her feel proud, not powerless
This episode is for every mom who swore she’d never yell again… but still does.
