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.

Shifting Your Spring Homeschool Rhythm: Tips for the Overstimulated Mom (Part 2)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Last week we talked about why spring throws off your homeschool and your nervous system. This week we're getting practical — but not in a "here's-your-spring-schedule" kind of way.
In this episode I'm sharing what shifting your spring rhythm actually looks like in my home, and some questions to help you figure out what it looks like in yours.
In this episode:
- One question to ask before you change anything in your routine
- Why your "get it all done by lunch" schedule may be working against you in spring
- What we keep, loosen, and lean into in our homeschool this time of year
- Simple routine shifts to experiment with — no overhaul required
Is your kids' spring fever driving you crazy and making it all feel hard when you just want to "get it all done" before summer? Let's finish the year in a way that leaves us feeling joyful in this homeschool chaos.
