    Confessions of an Ambitious Mother: How to Trust Yourself Over the Noise

    Modern motherhood has become an unwinnable game, and I’m done playing it that way. In this episode, I’m getting honest about the identity friction I’ve felt as a working mom, why balance is a myth, and how I started trusting my own voice over the noise, setting non-negotiables, and letting go of expectations that didn’t serve me. Plus: the parenting tactics my husband and I use to teach our kids agency and resilience, and the stories behind their names. This is part one of a new Project Swagger series called Motherhood: The Remix. Like a good 90s mixtape, let’s create our own individual versions of motherhood, keeping what works, rejecting what doesn’t, and setting our own rules. If you’ve ever felt like you’re supposed to be everything to everyone and do it all—this is for you. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
