You’re not failing - you’re just carrying a lie that was never yours to begin with.

In this episode of Coffee, Clients, and Naptime, I’m breaking down The Mum Guilt Lie - that voice in your head telling you you’re not doing enough in business or motherhood.

It’s a lie that keeps so many of us stuck, stretched thin, and questioning whether we’re cut out for this.

Here’s the truth:
You don’t have to choose between being a present mum and building a business that lights you up. And you’re allowed to do both without guilt.

Inside this episode, I’ll walk you through:

• What mum guilt really is (and why it’s not your fault)

• The 3-step shift I use to move through it instead of getting stuck in it

• The 4 systems that help me balance business, motherhood, and mental load - without burning out

• Affirmations and questions to reframe the guilt and give yourself more grace

This is your reminder that you’re not behind, broken, or failing. You’re navigating something hard - and you’re doing better than you think.

Episode Highlights
Letting go of unrealistic expectations
Creating systems that work in your season of life
Reframing guilt into compassion and clarity
Why grace gets you further than hustle ever will
