Do you ever feel like self-care is just one more thing on your already impossible to-do list? You’re not alone.

In this episode, I’m joined by Monica Packer to talk about why so many moms struggle to prioritize themselves—and why self-care can feel like a luxury instead of a necessity.

If you’ve been waiting for permission to start new habits imperfectly and realistically- this conversation is for you.

Monica Packer has 5 children and a well known podcast called "About Progress".

She recently wrote a book! Make sure you pre-order now.
