Summary

What if your feelings of inadequacy had nothing to do with you? What if they were because you have been conditioned as a woman and a mom that no matter what you do, it will never be enough? Perhaps you have been conditioned to believe that everyone else has it all figured out. Perhaps you are never validated or affirmed as a woman and a mom because society has systematically dismissed and diminished our value, our contributions, and our worth for centuries. Perhaps those feelings of inadequacy, while very real, are not yours to own. Perhaps the burden to alleviate those feelings falls on the systems and people who have diminished us. But they don’t know that. They don’t see that. And until they do, it’s up to us to undo their damage. SO… let’s unravel it all so you can step back and see the bigger picture. In this episode, I walk you through 4 things that fuel inadequacy for most women and moms and then a 4 part framework to intentionally and permanently walk away from your feelings of inadequacy and into your worth, your gifts, and your talents Thank you to our sponsors this month: care.com: Get the help you need to make it all work for your family at care.com/book.

And I feel like this is the kind of conversation where maybe you're like raising your hand like, yep, that's relatable, but also maybe feeling some feelings about raising your

1:34.9	where you want to publicly raise your hand, but behind closed doors in the privacy of your car
1:38.7	or your closet or your bathroom or maybe your kitchen, you're like, yep, that's me. So what inspired this conversation was
