EPISODE 11: Death Spirals and Hockey

🌸 Millennial Mama Mix: Lauren opens with something a lot of business owners and moms know well — the death spiral. Last week she skipped the episode because she was deep in one, questioning everything about her practice and her offers. She didn't hit the big red button. She stepped back instead. And this episode is about why that matters, and why forcing something that isn't working is a recipe for resentment — and also why stopping is sometimes how you find something better. 🛋️ Pink Couch Post-Its: Two brand new offers came directly out of that spiral. Resourcing Calls are one-hour, non-clinical, zero-sales-pitch conversations for moms who aren't sure what kind of support they actually need — therapy, coaching, local resources, or something else entirely. ART Intensives are short-term, time-bound packages built around Accelerated Resolution Therapy: one intake, two ART sessions, one integration session, done in four to eight weeks. For moms who need relief faster than talk therapy alone can provide. 💟 Favorites Folder: Lauren is an aspiring hockey girly and this week's folder reflects that fully. The PWHL — Professional Women's Hockey League — is only two years old and a San Jose team was just announced. And Off Campus on Prime is a college hockey ensemble show that handles themes of safety, consent, and emotional maturity beautifully. She is on her second rewatch. Highly recommend. 🫶🏻 One Last Thing: Space is open across all offers. Heads up — all consultation and resourcing calls are moving to Wednesdays starting June 3rd. 🔗 All links in my bio! https://linktr.ee/millennial_mama_therapyNew episodes weekly.
