The BAD Mom Show

What if the biggest thing shaping your home isn’t your schedule, routines, or even your parenting style— but what you believe about yourself and how you show up every day?    In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on something we don’t talk about enough: the internal beliefs, the labels we wear—like 'I’m just a mom'—and how those beliefs influence your leadership.   Here’s the truth: You're...

Episode 34: Q2 Goal Setting for Growth: The Reflection Practice That Builds True Authority   Thinking about goals for Q2? Before you add more to your list- or feel discouraged by the ones still on it- I want to invite you to try something different.   What if the breakthrough you're looking for isn’t in doing MORE, but in finally recognizing how far you’ve already come? Instead of jumping straight...

What if the pressure you feel… isn’t actually about doing more—but about proving something you were never meant to earn?    In this episode, I’m unpacking a conversation that stirred something deep in me after the Worthy Woman Summit. Many of us are quietly carrying this weight of performance pressure, approval-seeking, and feeling unworthy no matter how much we do or how 'fine' we seem.   We're d...

Tell me if this feels familiar: Everyday is a race. You wake-up and before your feet hit the floor, your to-do list has taken over your thoughts and you already feel behind. You stay constantly busy, it feels productive but when the day's over, you don't feel like you've gained any ground. It's like swimming against the current. No matter how hard you try, you just can't seem to do enough to feel...

Ever feel like you’re doing all the “right” things—planning, preparing, thinking ahead—but somehow you’re still not moving forward? Yeah… I’ve been there too. And what I’ve realized is this: what feels like responsibility might actually be the very thing keeping you stuck.   In this episode, I’m getting real about overthinking—how it shows up in motherhood, leadership, and everyday decisions—and w...

It's already March and I be you're feeling it too. I’m talking about the undercurrent of panic that you're behind, missing the mark and you wonder 'what's wrong with me?' If you've felt the anxiety and slip back into pressuring yourself to do more, stay tuned. We're talking about it here.   March is a transition month. It symbolizes spring and brings hope that the long, cold, dark winter is finall...

Y'all get ready for a powerhouse episode! I had the honor of speaking with my friend, Amy Ramsey- an incredible leadership mentor and honestly-- just an incredible human being. We couldn't wait to sit down together and the conversation just flowed. Amy dropped so many nuggets of wisdom, ya might need to grab a pen or pull out Notes on your phone!   Amy and I dove into the thing that often stops us...

In this episode, I’m opening up about something many of us feel but don’t always talk about—why intimacy can start to feel harder after marriage, even when love is still there. I share honestly about the emotional layers, hidden triggers, and mindset shifts that can impact connection, and how our stories, healing journey, and faith all play a role in the way we show up with our spouse.   We explor...

Episode 27 - Cold & Flu Season? You Don’t Have to Come into Agreement with That   In this episode, I’m challenging something you may do without even realizing it and that's automatically coming into agreement with things like illness, with your words. Do you say things like 'well it's going around so we're bound to be next' or 'everyone's getting it' and 'it's just that time of year'? If so yo...

Have you ever found yourself doing all the right things—showing up, serving, loving, giving—and still not feeling truly seen or loved?   In this episode, I’m talking about that quiet disappointment so many of us carry in marriage, motherhood, and relationships. The unmet expectations. The resentment that sneaks in. The questions about our worth when appreciation doesn’t come back the way we hoped....

I'm excited to share today's episode with you where I got to chat with my dear friend Brooke Rozmenoski- aka Brooke Rozzie.   Brooke and I met while doing our own deep story work in a coaching program this past fall. Our stories are so powerful and impact every aspect of our lives, including our marriages. We haven't really talked about that here on The BAD Mom Show and it's an area Brooke is pass...

In today’s episode, I’m talking honestly about something we all experience (and complain about) but don't often talk about. I had a moment where the Holy Spirit put me in check and opened my eyes to this question: Are you willing to be inconvenienced? Ouch.   You know those moments. You've likely had at least one of them already today: You cleaned up the house and the kids come make a toy/shoe/sch...

In this episode, I’m talking about something I know so many of us crave these days—real community. After reflecting more on the event I hosted in December, one thing that really hit home was how powerful it is to get in the room. We live in a 'connected' time, but we struggle with feeling more alone and isolated than ever. But that's not how we were created to live. We were made to be in community...

Most of us walk into the New Year feeling pressure to create fresh goals, fix ourselves, and hustle our way into a “better” version of who we already are. But in this episode, I share the message God gave me that flipped the whole New Year narrative for me: you don’t need new resolutions, you need to be resolute.   I talk about how reflection, gratitude, and alignment with God’s purpose matter so...

Before you rush into 'new year new you' resolutions, and feel the pressure to 'get it right' this year (if you already do, it's ok!) I want to invite you to try something a little different. In today's episode, I walk you through how practicing gratitude before goals is the key to real growth- physically, emotionally, and spiritually. If you don’t make time to reflect, you WILL miss the evidence o...

In Part 2 of my conversation with Bob Hamp, we go deep into the question, Why do I keep doing the very thing I don’t want to do? This episode is very eye-opening and will change how you see your behavior patterns. Bob breaks down how changing unhealthy cycles - whether physical or emotional- isn't a matter of trying harder or mustering more will power. It's more complex and pulls on parts of how w...

Today is a super special conversation I've been excited to share with you! I had the privilege of sitting down with Bob Hamp who, quite frankly, is a wealth of wisdom in all things identity, thought processes, and how to walk in true freedom.

Hey! Today we’re returning to our series on Anger and discussing the part no woman wants to acknowledge: what unhealed anger is COSTING you.   In Part 3 of the Anger Series, I talk about what happens when anger gets stuck in our bodies. Anger, like all emotions, is energy that needs somewhere to go so if we don't process it, we get stuck with it. There are different ways this can impact us and I d...

Okay friend… get ready, because Part 2 of my conversation with the one & only Jenny Donnelly goes even DEEPER into family and how YOU- as a mom- carry such a powerful authority in your home when you operate from your true identity.   In this episode, Jenny and I unpack four signs you're out of ALIGNMENT with your true identity: self-protection, defensiveness, isolation, and separation. She exp...

Let’s be real—mom anger is one of those things nobody wants to talk about but we've all felt. You know that moment when your patience snaps, your tone sharpens, or you walk away thinking, 'What is wrong with me?!' I’ve been there too. That's why we're talking about it. In this first part of my Mom Anger Series, we’re getting real about what it is and its roots.   I share my own experience with ang...
