04 - Why Parents Don't Feel Rested - And What To Do Instead (With Paula Welz)

We’re talking about the kind of rest parents actually need—and spoiler: it’s not just sleep. This week, I’m joined by my first-ever guest (!) to break down the invisible mental load of “relaxing,” why traditional self-care advice misses the mark, and how to build in micro-breaks that actually help. Plus: my self-care faves of the week, a very honest Planned-ish Pivot, and your funniest "this totally counts as rest" moments from the group chat.✨Follow The Balanced Mom on Instagram ⬇️https://www.instagram.com/thebalanced.mom/⬇️ The Balanced Mom 3-Day Reset Guide: https://thebalancedmom.ca/3-day-reset-guide?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAafLKXD5qtHxVPHPM82r4-azgmbJLPT_yVpEkhbclivBaF7Gjqw7q8du2CHRBA_aem_lQ4EWcweA2ga9YuOdacXWg______________________________________________________________✨Follow Planned-ish on Instagram⬇️https://www.instagram.com/planned_ish/✨Follow Back Two Home Base on Instagram⬇️https://www.instagram.com/backtwohomebase/
