In this heartfelt episode of Dream to Done, I get real about the invisible load moms carry—and why it’s time to rewrite the narrative that “good moms always come last.” Drawing from my personal journey as a mom of four,  I share the powerful moment that sparked my mission to help moms rediscover and pursue their dreams without guilt.

From the eye-opening exercise that led to my “12 Trip” tradition with my kids, to the unexpected blessings that came from prioritizing my own goals, this episode is a loving reminder that your happiness matters—and when moms thrive, everyone rises with them.

In This Episode, You’ll Hear:

  • Why the idea that “a good mom always puts herself last” can be damaging
  • How to start making space for your goals—even in a busy season of motherhood
  • The inspiration behind my  “12 Trip” and how it became a meaningful tradition
  • Why pursuing your dreams uplifts your whole family
  • Real-life examples of how small steps toward self-fulfillment can lead to big blessings
