Zen Supermom: The Mental Fitness Podcast
I'm not a supermom. But I always wanted to be one and have it all: family, career/business that I love, AND the time for myself. But that ambition without proper stress resistance and resilience killed my mom (cancer at 48) and drove me to the edge of burnout twice. Only when I saw the disastrous effects of my anger, stress, and resentment on my little daughter, I knew I had to change... Since then, not only have I healed but I also helped thousands of other women all around the world through trauma-informed therapy and mental fitness training. And I decided to share the most vulnerable and valuable pieces of my and their journey here. Because if we got out of that dark, stuck place of feeling like a terrible mom, YOU CAN DO IT TOO. So choose the episode that speaks to you and tune in!
Zen Supermom: The Mental Fitness Podcast
Ep #19: HOW?! How to stay CALM no matter what (Mental Fitness Intro: Part 2)
This episode builds up on the previous one - episode 18.
Episode 18 unpacked:
- the beginning of the stressed mom journey
-what's really going on, and
-why the classic parenting/mom advice does NOT help in being a calm, loving, peaceful mom (without raising your voice too much).
In this episode #19, I'm continuing on that journey by answering the question I get the most from newcomers:
-OK, so now what…
HOW do you stay calm no matter what?
-How does Mental Fitness help, SPECIFICALLY?
-What is the method, or exercises behind it? How does it really work?
PLUS, you get a free gift again. For you to go and try it for yourself.
Let's dive in!
Here's the podcast episode on youtube - EPISODE #19 on YOUTUBE, if you want to watch me talk. It's unedited, so in case my uhm's and "sooo" annoy you, stick to this podcast version that's at least a bit more polished. :)
Enjoy!

Hi, I’m Alena - founder of Zen Supermom and creator of the IDTR method (Intergenerational Developmental Trauma Repatterning).
I work with thoughtful, committed parents who have already tried to understand themselves - and still find themselves reacting under pressure in ways they don’t want.
My work focuses on changing the underlying pattern that formed early, shows up in the nervous system under stress, and gets passed on to the next generation unless addressed as a whole.
🎧 Start here – Mommy Tantrum Session
A short orientation to understand what’s really driving your reactions with your kids — and what to do next.
