Paperclips & Periods Podcast with Dr. Emily Cabrera & Katie Krych: Juggling It All Without Losing Ourselves

Episode 19: Juggling It All Without Losing Ourselves How do we keep all the plates spinning without forgetting how to actually enjoy life? In this episode, Dr. Emily K. Cabrera, EdD, MSN, CAGS, PMHNP-BC and Katie Krych, MSN, RN, PMHNP(c) tackle the reality of trying to juggle careers, family, relationships, responsibilities, and everything in between while still making room for joy, connection, and fun. Through honest conversation, relatable stories, and plenty of laughter, Emily and Katie explore why so many women feel pressure to "do it all," the guilt that often comes with taking time for ourselves, and how easily we judge both ourselves and each other for the choices we make. Together they discuss: • The mental load of balancing multiple roles • Why fun often becomes the first thing we sacrifice • Practical strategies for staying grounded when life feels overwhelming • Letting go of comparison and the need to do things "the right way" • Learning to support, not judge, other women whose choices may look different from our own • Making intentional space for rest, laughter, and the people who matter most This episode is a reminder that there is no perfect way to balance life. Every family, every career, and every season looks different. The goal is not perfection. It is creating a life that allows us to care for others without losing ourselves in the process. Join us for a conversation filled with practical tips, encouragement, and a healthy reminder that sometimes the best thing on your to-do list is simply to enjoy the moment.
