We often hear “you’re only as happy as your relationships,” and for moms… that feels especially true. In this video, I’m walking you through three of the most important relationships in your life: your partner, your kids, and your friends, and what to do when those connections feel off. Whether you're feeling disconnected in your marriage, overstimulated by your toddlers, or just lonely and craving deeper friendship, this is for you. 💡 Did you know? According to research from The Gottman Institute, 67% of couples report a significant decline in relationship satisfaction in the first 3 years after having a baby. That stat alone helps explain why so many of us feel like everything’s falling apart right when we’re supposed to be happiest. But it doesn’t have to stay that way. In this episode, I’m sharing gentle reminders, honest stories, and simple tools to help you reconnect, even when you’re tired, touched-out, or barely holding it together. ✨ Let this be your reset button. 💛 Join my Tuesday group coaching call for moms in Very Good Mothers Club (only $37/month). 👉 https://www.verygoodmothersclub.com/ 🎧 Listen to our podcast “Very Good Enough” for more real talk on toddler chaos, mom guilt, and friendship.
