    151. Working Mom Summer: Why I Stopped Chasing Balance With Two Kids Under Four

    "I don't know how you balance it all." Mama, same — because I'm not.
    Two kids under four are home with me all summer while I run my business, and I stopped chasing "balance" a long time ago. Here's the honest truth about why "balancing it all" is a myth that's quietly crushing ambitious working moms — and the reframe that changes everything: motherhood is meant to reshape you, not erase you.
    Your permission slip for this summer. Send it to a mom who needs it.

    150. You're Not a Bad Mom. You're Sleep Deprived. with Chrissy Lawler MS, LMFT, Certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant

    You've been told some babies are just bad sleepers. That sleep training is cruel. That you just have to survive the newborn phase and eventually — eventually — you'll sleep again.
    What if all of that is wrong?
    In this episode, Chelsea sits down with Chrissy Lawler — licensed marriage and family therapist, sleep expert, mom of four girls, and author of the brand new book The Peaceful Sleeper — to talk about the one thing that impacts every single cell, function, and process in your body. Sleep.
    In this episode they cover:
    Why sleep training has gotten such a bad reputation — and what it actually looks like done right
    The developmental framework that makes teaching independent sleep feel less scary and more intuitive
    Why your family's sleep is one of the most important investments you can make in your mental health, your relationship, and your children
    What happens when moms pour everything into the early years and lose themselves along the way
    Why a well-rested mom isn't a luxury — she's the foundation
    This is the episode you send to the mom who keeps saying she'll sleep when the kids are older.
    Because she can't wait that long. And neither can you.
