Not Defined By Motherhood, the Podcast
Mother is a title, not your whole damn story. Each week, host Melanie O’Reilly-Rogers helps you cut through the noise, ditch the guilt, and find yourself again - without a million-step morning routine or picture-perfect plans. From quick mindset shifts to honest conversations about the messy, beautiful reality of life as a mom, you’ll get the clarity, validation, and strategies you need to feel more like you again.

Dopamine for Moms: How Small Joys Can Help You Reclaim Yourself and Beat Burnout
Motherhood often feels like an endless to-do list, and somewhere in the chaos, your joy gets buried. But here’s the truth: you don’t need a spa weekend or a six-month sabbatical to feel alive again. What you really need are small hits of dopamine - little moments of joy that remind you you’re still a person, not just a caretaker.
In this episode of Not Defined By Motherhood – The Podcast, I’ll break down what dopamine actually is, why moms are running on empty, and how you can create small, simple moments that boost your mood and energy. We’ll talk about why these “tiny joys” matter, how to find them without guilt, and how they can change the way you show up in motherhood and in life.
