Episode 6: What You Don't See and Why You Should Stop Comparing Yourself to 'Picture Perfect Moms'

You've seen the flawless family photos, the perfect trips to Disney and the moms who look like they've got it all together. Maybe you've even been the person posting the images of a life everybody else wants for themselves. But what's not there are the meltdowns, the stress, and the chaos behind the scenes that never seems to make it on social media.


In this bonus episode of Overcaffeinated and Out of Effs, I get real about the comparison trip so many working moms fall into, myself included.


You'll learn things like:

  • Why comparison leaves moms feeling “less than” even when they're doing amazing

  • What you don't see and the hidden struggles behind the “perfect” images we see online

  • What balance really means and why it doesn't look like spa days or spontaneous weekend getaways

  • Practical steps to shift out of comparison and start focusing on what really matters


If you've ever scrolled on social media and been left feeling like you're not doing enough, this episode is your reminder that you're not behind, you're not failing, and you're definitely not alone.
