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!

Ep 35: Can’t Figure It Out Why You Keep Yelling at Your Kids, Though You Want To Stay Calm? (Generational Developmental Trauma Awareness)
If you’re feeling like the worst mom in the world because you keep yelling at your kids and can’t stop it, even though you have the best intentions to stay calm… And, if you have no idea WHY, then this episode is for you.
Yes, there is the “T” word… But even if you had a happy, trauma-free childhood, or if you already did therapy to process your pain from the past, I would still invite you to listen in.
Because if you can’t keep your anger under control even though you’re trying your best, it’s a sign more work is needed there.

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.

A short orientation to understand what’s really driving your reactions with your kids — and what to do next.
