#241 - Why "Good Enough" Might Be Exactly What You Need

Have you ever felt overwhelmed......while also feeling incredibly grateful?That's exactly where I am.Motherhood has brought me more joy than I could have imagined.It's also introduced me to things I never fully understood until I experienced them myself—mom guilt, perfectionism, the loss of uninterrupted time, and the constant feeling that there just aren't enough hours in the day.In this episode, I'm sharing some of the lessons I've been learning in real time.We talk about what I wish I could tell pre-mom Salisha, why "good enough" has become one of the hardest phrases for me to embrace, and why I think following your curiosity is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself.In this episode, you'll hear about: The three kinds of mom guilt I've experienced  The advice I'd give myself before motherhood  Why putting your phone down might change your life  Letting go of perfection and embracing "good enough"  Rediscovering joy without needing a purpose  Prioritizing your mental health through every season If you've ever felt like you're carrying both joy and overwhelm at the same time...This conversation is for you.Chapters01:07 Joy and Overwhelm Can Exist Together01:54 The Different Types of Mom Guilt03:41 The Advice I'd Give Pre-Mom Me05:41 Put Your Phone Down & Follow Your Joy06:49 What Have You Stopped Doing Just Because?07:24 Learning to Embrace "Good Enough"09:37 Lean Into Your Gifts10:10 The "Good Enough" Birth Story11:48 Prioritizing Your Mental Health13:42 You Can Feel Joy and Overwhelm TogetherYou can send fan mail here!@salishathomas @thesalishashow, www.thesalishashow.comMany thanks to Gotham Network in NYC, TyNia Brandon for writing and laying vocals down for the updated theme song and Big Red Studios for the intro video wherever you watch the latest season of The Salisha Show!
