27. Letting Go of Supermom: The Power of Accepting Help

Hey doc! Let’s talk about the "Supermom" trap, and my personal story about a time I refused help, even when it was readily available. In this episode, I share:

• Why refusing help can actually slow us down
• How the "Supermom" identity might be holding you back
• The freedom that comes with accepting help

Some big takeaways:

1. There's no prize for doing everything alone
2. Accepting help doesn't make you less of a rock star
3. Letting go of "Supermom" can actually make you more efficient
4. It's okay to prioritize your safety and sanity

We'll unpack the pressure to do it all, the fleeting satisfaction of that Supermom title, and the importance of releasing the need to carry everything ourselves. Let's ditch the cape and embrace being human!
