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.

3 More Signs of Burnout & What To Do for Sensory Overload
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In Episode 4, Whitney finishes 3 more common causes of homeschool mom burnout AND what you can do about them. Homeschool mom or not... these things affect all of us as moms, especially if you're highly sensitive or overstimulated.
Parents are reporting record high levels of stress. If you want to address your sensory overwhelm, you have to address stress head on. And hormonal shifts are certainly a piece of the puzzle that impacts sensory overload in unexpected ways.
Listen along as we explore how these 3 things affect your sensory overload:
- Hormonal shifts
- Inconsistent boundaries
- Other stressors
We briefly discuss the stress cycle and practical ways you can "dump the stress" instead of letting it limit your capacity to handle the overstimulation of motherhood.
