Send us Fan MailIf you're an overwhelmed mom struggling with burnout, marriage disconnection, and wondering if thriving is even possible anymore — this episode is for you.Have you ever felt like you're just white-knuckling your way through marriage and motherhood, waiting for things to get easier? Have you ever wondered what a therapist actually sees behind closed doors — the real stuff couples and moms are struggling with? Have you ever thought, I don't want to just survive this season — I want to actually love my life?Mama, this episode is going to give you some serious behind-the-scenes insight.My guest today is Elizabeth Page, a licensed marriage and family therapist who came to her work the hard way — by living it. When her own marriage was failing, she started studying to fix it. Two days after her professional license arrived in the mail, she left her husband of 16 years. The whole experience was painful, necessary, and ultimately the thing that cracked her open into the woman and the therapist she was meant to be. Now she helps couples, families, and teens navigate the hard stuff before it reaches a breaking point — and she is pulling back the curtain on all of it today.Whether your marriage needs a tune-up or a complete overhaul, whether you're drowning in mom life or just feeling that low-grade disconnection you can't quite name — Elizabeth has something for you.
