Hey friend.

Let's tell the truth about something most women carry in secret—something you might whisper to yourself at 2 a.m. when you can't sleep, or when you're staring at that planner you bought with such hope three months ago:

"I know what to do. I just don't do it."

Maybe you've said it about the clutter that keeps coming back. Or the weight you can't seem to lose—again. Or the morning routine that worked for exactly four days before life got loud and it all fell apart.

Maybe you've said it while scrolling Instagram, watching other women seem to have it all together while you're barely keeping your head above water. Or while sitting in your car in the driveway, giving yourself a pep talk before you walk inside to face another chaotic evening.

That sentence right there? The one that feels like a confession of failure? The one you're almost ashamed to admit out loud?

It's not laziness. It's not inconsistency. It's not a character flaw.

It's a misdiagnosis.

And I'm going to prove it to you in the next few minutes.

Welcome to The Intentional Midlife Mom podcast. I'm Jennifer Roskamp, and I work with high-capacity women who look like they have it all together on the outside—but feel like they're drowning on the inside. Women who've spent years holding everything together and are finally ready to reclaim their time, energy, and purpose for themselves. Women who are done white-knuckling through another week, another reset, another round of "get it together."

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on why every fix you've tried—every planner, every reset, every new routine—keeps falling apart. And spoiler alert: it's not because you're broken. It's because you're trying to fix overload with the wrong tools.

By the end of this conversation, you'll finally understand why your past attempts at change didn't stick—and what to do instead. We'll walk through how to treat the root instead of the symptom, and what real, sustainable follow-through actually looks like for overloaded women.

So grab your coffee—or your wine, no judgment—and let's dig in.

Get some powerful mantras to inspire, encourage, and life you up when you need as little something intentional to focus on.
