In this episode of The Love Doc Podcast, Dr. Sarah Hensley and co-host Raina Butcher are joined by Rebecca Olson, a certified life coach specializing in working moms, mental health, and work–life balance. Together, they explore the psychological and emotional challenges that arise when women transition into motherhood while maintaining ambitious careers.
Through a psychology-based and relationship-focused lens, the conversation covers time management, identity shifts, attachment dynamics, boundaries, burnout, and redefining success during different seasons of life. Rebecca shares practical tools for protecting mental health, strengthening relationships, and reducing guilt and overwhelm—especially for high-achieving women navigating motherhood, partnership, and personal growth.
