Episode Details

Motherhood was never meant to be a done alone.

That leads to exhaustion, overwhelm, resentment and being snappy. At least that was my experience. 

In this episode, I am joined by the founder of the Brain Health Movement Lucia Silver. Lucia is interviewing me! 

We explore what’s really happening beneath maternal burnout, from nutrient depletion and nervous system dysregulation to cultural conditioning and the invisible weight of the supermom myth. I also share my personal journey as a burnt-out new mother, and the paradigm shift that reshaped my life and work. 

Lucia and I chat about: 

• Why burnout has become normalized in modern motherhood
• The powerful feedback loop between maternal overwhelm and child dysregulation
• How small micro-shifts can restore resilience
• Why self-care is not a luxury, but a biological necessity
• How to begin reclaiming your energy without adding more to your to-do list

Lucia Silver is the founder of The Brain Health Movement and the mother behind “The Mighty Quinn.” An Oxford scholar and award-winning entrepreneur, Lucia is now leading a parent-powered mission to re-educate families on the true root causes of childhood struggles. She’s the creator of The Whole Child, Multi-Disciplinary Roadmap to Healing – a course that brings all the answers you need, in one place, in the right order. Lucia has helped hundreds of families navigate ADHD, autism, anxiety, PANS/PANDAS, tics, gut and chronic health issues and more.
