You're Not a Lazy Mom
from Catholic Mom Calm Hosted by Sterling Jaquith
Are you telling yourself you're a lazy mom — even though you're exhausted, overwhelmed, and doing a million things every day? In this episode, I want to lovingly but firmly tell you the truth: You are not lazy. You are tired. And those are not the same thing. I've had six kids in eight years, and I know what it feels like to sit on the couch and wonder what is wrong with you… even though you've been giving everything you have all day long. In this video, we talk about: - why "lazy mom" is almost always the wrong diagnosis - the difference between exhaustion, burnout, and true laziness - how mental load fries your nervous system (even when your body still has energy) - why negative self-talk makes motherhood feel heavier than it has to be - how silence, prayer, and compassion for yourself restore capacity - why managing your mind gives you hours of energy back This is especially for Catholic moms who love their families deeply but feel worn down, overstimulated, and discouraged. Nothing is wrong with you. You don't need to try harder. You need more peace. I'm praying for you. Please pray for me. 💜 Sterling
