Motherhood can feel beautiful, overwhelming, exhausting, fulfilling, and chaotic — often all at once.
So many moms are carrying the mental load of everyone around them while quietly feeling disconnected from themselves, their bodies, and their own needs.
In this episode, Dr. Des opens up about the reality of modern motherhood, the nervous system overload so many women are living in, and what it actually looks like to support yourself without guilt in the middle of the chaos.
This is not about being the “perfect mom.” It’s about learning how to stay connected to yourself while caring for everyone else.
In This Episode, We Explore:
The invisible mental load many moms carry
Why motherhood can feel so overstimulating and exhausting
How stress impacts the nervous system, core, and pelvic floor
The connection between burnout and body symptoms
Small ways to reconnect with yourself throughout the day
Releasing guilt around movement, rest, boundaries, and asking for help
What “thriving” in motherhood actually means
Why This Matters
So many women believe they are failing when really… they are simply overloaded.
Your body was never meant to function under constant stress without support. Breathwork, movement, strength, boundaries, nervous system regulation, and moments of connection all matter — not just for your health, but for your ability to show up fully in your life.
This is also why my work has never been just about pelvic floors — it’s about helping women feel strong, connected, and supported in every season of life.
Inside the Pelvic Floor, Core & More App and RESTORE, women receive tools and guidance that support both physical healing and nervous system resilience.
