Shownotes Transcript

Sam and Jenna are diving into the anxieties of motherhood, especially the challenge of leaving your kids in someone else’s care for the first time. Why does it feel so hard to hand over control? How do we navigate the guilt of enjoying a break? And what can we do to remind ourselves that stepping away doesn’t mean stepping back from being a good mom? Plus, they’re breaking down why it’s okay to feel both relief and heartache when you finally take that step toward trusting others with your child. If you’ve ever found yourself second-guessing, overthinking, or feeling alone in these experiences, this episode is for you. Join Jenna and Sam as they embrace the duality of motherhood—the guilt and the gratification—and remind you that you're never alone on this journey.
