In episode in 21, Brittany talks about the difficulty of mothering and addresses the questions "Am I making an impact? Does what I'm doing matter?"

She encourages moms to keep pushing forward because we are in the season of moving mountains and some day we will look back and we will be in awe of all that we have moved.

In episode 20, Brittany talks about motherhood being the next billion dollar industry and the way it is creating this idealistic image of what motherhood should look like.

Brittany encourages mothers to see that self care is far more than the #selfcare that we see on instagram. She talks about changing the idealistic picture of self care and how we can start approaching it with what it truly is—a time of healing and care for ourselves in the midst of caring for others.
