Sensational Moms: Support For Overstimulated Moms
For the overstimulated homeschool mom who is burned out, reactive, & snappy and ready to feel joyful and connected again.
Do you spend your days feeling touched out, talked out, and reactive — when all you really want is to actually enjoy being a mom? You're in the right place.
I'm Whitney, a sensory integration occupational therapist turned nervous system regulation coach, homeschooling my 4 kids as a highly sensitive mom. I created this podcast for the overstimulated homeschool mom who is ready to go from burned out and reactive to joyful and connected — without having it all figured out first.
Each week we talk about the real stuff: emotional and nervous system regulation, sensory overload, the mental load of motherhood, doable self-care, and neurodivergent homeschooling — all through the lens of your nervous system, because that's where the change actually happens.
You don't have to have it together to help your kids thrive. Let's figure it out together.
