Why Parenting Feels Like the Same Bad Day Over and Over
from 🫶🏼 Life And Bullshyt 🫶🏼 Hosted by Janine Schwartz
Some days, it’s not that our kids are misbehaving… It’s that every day starts to feel exactly the same. The lunches, the laundry, the endless snacks, the rides to activities, the constant “Mom!”—until one day you find yourself feeling frustrated and wondering, What’s wrong with me? In this episode of Life and Bullshyt, I’m talking about something I think so many parents experience but rarely admit: the feeling of living the same day over and over again. We’ll explore why our brains crave novelty, how routine can quietly drain us, and a few simple ways to break out of that “Groundhog Day” mindset without needing a vacation or changing your entire life. If you’ve ever loved your family deeply while still feeling completely worn down by the repetition of everyday life, this conversation is for you. Because maybe you’re not failing. Maybe you’re just stuck in the routine. If this episode made you feel a little less alone, follow Life and Bullshyt wherever you listen to podcasts and share it with another parent who might need to hear it.
