So many moms tell me, “If I spoke to a friend the way I speak to myself… I wouldn’t have any friends left.” And it’s true — a mom’s internal dialogue is often so much harsher than anything she’d ever say out loud.
💬 “I should be doing more.”
💬 “Why can’t I handle this?”
💬 “Everyone else seems to be managing.”

If this sounds familiar, I want you to know:
That voice isn’t the truth. It’s stress. It’s survival mode. It’s overwhelm — not failure.

Encouragement for today:
You are doing more than you realize. Your worth isn’t measured in productivity, perfection, or how calm you appear. You are allowed to be human, messy, tired, and still an incredible mom.

A simple tip to change your self-talk:
When you notice a harsh thought, try this question:
“If my best friend or my child said this about themself, what would I tell them?”
Then say that to yourself. Out loud if you can.
It interrupts the shame spiral and teaches your brain a new, kinder pattern.

Be gentle with yourself today — you deserve the same compassion you give everyone else.

CDC data shows that birth rates for women over 40 keep rising. Advances in reproductive medicine have opened doors that didn’t exist for earlier generations.

But there’s a newer shift happening too. Some women are becoming mothers at 50, 55, and even 60. Do you think women should get pregnant, or mother newborns, at this age?

A recent study at the Mayo Clinic Depression Center shows that ketamine and esketamine reduced lemergency department visits for suicidality in individuals with Treatment Resistant Depression. Further longer-term follow-up research is encouraged to ascertain if these benefits are mood state dependent or reflect an independent mechanism.
