MomFuel & Mindset
You've read the books. You know you should prioritize yourself. You're still last on your own list every single night.
MomFuel & Mindset is the podcast for the mom who gives everything to everyone and is quietly running on empty while holding the whole world together.
We're Chrissy and Jess, two real friends, two moms in the thick of it and we built this podcast because we got tired of pretending we had it together. Every week we show up with raw honest conversation and practical tools for the moments that actually break you.
The overstimulation. The invisible mental load nobody sees. The reactive moment you replay at 2am. The guilt that follows you to bed.
We don't sugarcoat it. We don't pretend it's easy. And we never make you feel like you're the only one struggling.
Because you're not broken. You're just running on empty in a world that keeps asking you to give more.
New episodes every Thursday. Come as you are. 💜

MomFuel & Mindset – Episode 5: Strong Enough to Survive… Tired of Having To
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
So many moms are praised for being “strong” for holding it all together, pushing through exhaustion, and carrying the weight of everyone else’s needs. But what happens when you’re strong enough to survive… and deeply tired of having to be?
In this episode, we’re talking honestly about the pressure placed on moms to do it all and have it all together, even when they’re running on empty. We unpack the rigid expectations we have for ourselves and our families, how it shows up in our bodies and emotions, and why constantly “being strong” can quietly disconnect us from ourselves.
This conversation is for the mom who keeps showing up, even when she’s exhausted. The mom who feels guilty for needing rest. The mom who wonders if there’s another way to live, one rooted in support, softness, and permission to be human.
You don’t have to earn rest.
You don’t have to prove your strength.
And you don’t have to carry it all alone.
Take a deep breath and join me for a conversation that reminds you: you are allowed to stop surviving and start being supported. 💛
