Hey girl, it’s been a minute.In this episode, I’m sitting down for a real and honest catch-up on where life has been lately and why I’ve been a little absent from the podcast. Between motherhood, working full-time, managing a home, showing up for my family, and trying to hold onto the passions that make me feel like me, life has felt incredibly full.I’m opening up about the mom guilt that creeps in when you’re trying to do it all—the guilt of being away from your kids to work, the guilt of not giving enough to your career, the guilt of not showing up consistently for the things you love, and the pressure we put on ourselves to somehow balance it all perfectly.The truth?

Some seasons require us to give ourselves grace.If you’ve ever felt stretched thin, overwhelmed, or like you’re constantly being pulled in a hundred different directions, this conversation is for you. I’m sharing what life has looked like behind the scenes, the lessons I’m learning about letting go of perfection, and why this podcast still means so much to me even when life gets busy.Consider this episode a coffee chat between friends…a reminder that you’re not alone in the struggle, and that doing your best is enough.So grab your coffee, take a deep breath, and let’s catch up.

Monday Mom Pep Talk: Hot Girl Summer... Mom Edition ☀️When summer rolls around, it's easy to feel the pressure to do it all—plan the perfect vacations, keep the kids entertained, attend every event, and somehow still keep the house running.But what if this summer looked different?In this episode, we're redefining "Hot Girl Summer" for moms. It's not about doing more—it's about being more present. It's about slowing down, creating meaningful memories, protecting your peace, and finding joy in the simple moments that often become the ones our children remember most.Join me as I share practical ways to embrace a slower summer, prioritize your mental health, and make space for connection, laughter, and the kind of memories that don't require a packed schedule or a big budget.Because the best summer memories aren't always found in the big moments—they're often hiding in the everyday ones.Grab your iced coffee, take a deep breath, and let's make this a summer we'll actually enjoy, not just survive.

This one is for the mom who feels like she lost herself somewhere along the way.The one who remembers who she used to be… but doesn’t quite feel like her anymore.In today’s Monday Mom Pep Talk, we’re talking about the truth no one really says out loud—you’re not going to magically feel like yourself again one day.You have to start acting like her first.I’m sharing a personal shift I’ve been going through (hello, getting out of the house and back into the world again 👀), and how small, intentional actions can reconnect you to the version of you that feels confident, alive, and like you.We’re getting into:Why identity comes from action—not waitingHow to “time shift” and become her in small, realistic momentsLetting go of the guilt around wanting to feel like more than just “mom”And how to start showing up as her… even in the middle of a full, busy lifeIf you’ve been waiting to feel ready, motivated, or like “yourself again”… this is your reminder:She’s not gone.She’s just waiting for you to show up as her.Hey girl hey… let’s go find her again. 💖💖

You are. Two simple words… but ones we don’t say to ourselves nearly enough.In this Monday Mom Pep Talk, we’re diving into the quiet pressure so many of us carry—the constant wondering if we’re doing enough, being enough, showing up enough for our kids. When you’re juggling the chaos, the mess, the schedules, the emotions… it’s easy to lose sight of the truth.This episode is your reminder.You are exactly the mom your children need. You are showing up in ways that matter. You are doing more than you give yourself credit for.Even in the messy moments. Even on the overwhelming days. Even when it doesn’t feel like it.Because the little things you do every single day? They count. They add up. They matter more than perfection ever could.So if you’ve been questioning yourself lately, this is your space to come back home to who you are—and remember that you are enough.

Self-care… we hear about it all the time—but why does it still feel so out of reach?In today’s Monday Mom Pep Talk, I’m getting real about self-care in motherhood and why we’ve made it feel so much bigger (and harder) than it actually needs to be. I took to TikTok and asked real moms what they do for self-care—and their answers? Simple, honest, and surprisingly powerful.From drinking hot coffee to sitting in the car for a few quiet minutes, this episode is a reminder that self-care isn’t about perfection, time, or money… it’s about permission.If you’ve ever felt like you don’t have time to take care of yourself, this is your gentle reset. You’ll walk away feeling seen, supported, and reminded that even the smallest moments count.Press play for a breath of fresh air this Monday, —you deserve it. 🤍Follow me on Tik Tok: www.tiktok.com/@heygirlheyp0dcast

In this episode of Hey Girl Hey, I’m opening up about something that so many women are experiencing but very few are actually talking about—perimenopause.After having my kids in my mid-to-late 30s, I expected the normal exhaustion that comes with motherhood… but what started happening over the next few years felt different. Brain fog, mood shifts, weight changes, sleep struggles, anxiety, and feeling like my body just wasn’t working the way it used to.For a long time, I couldn’t quite put my finger on what was going on.Today I’m sharing my personal journey navigating these symptoms, the frustration of trying to find answers, and why I’ve decided to take the next step in understanding my hormones and overall health. I’m also talking about my experience beginning the process with Simply Wellness and the hope I feel finally getting some clarity through bloodwork and hormone testing.If you’ve ever felt like your body changed after kids and no one prepared you for it… this episode is for you.Because the truth is, you’re not crazy, you’re not alone, and these conversations matter.

In this heartfelt episode of Hey Girl Hey with Becca, I talk about the bittersweet truth of motherhood: we are raising our children to one day live without us. As heavy as that sounds, it’s also one of the most beautiful reminders to slow down and soak in the moments that feel overwhelming, messy, and exhausting right now.I share how this realization has shifted my perspective during the hard seasons of parenting. When you’re deep in the chaos of motherhood, it can feel like these days will last forever. But the truth is—they won’t. And sometimes that reminder is exactly what brings us back to the present moment.This episode is a gentle encouragement for moms who feel like they’re not doing it perfectly (spoiler: none of us are). It’s about giving yourself grace, finding beauty in the ordinary days, and recognizing how powerful it is to have a community of women walking through the same season beside you.If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, stretched thin, or unsure if you’re doing enough, this conversation will remind you that you’re not alone—and that these fleeting moments of motherhood are worth slowing down for. 

In this episode of Hey Girl Hey with Becca, we’re having a real heart-to-heart about something so many moms quietly struggle with: feeling like they’re “too much.”Too loud. Too emotional. Too energetic. Too different.Hey girl, let me remind you of something… you are not too much.In this episode, I share my personal story about growing up and stepping into motherhood while feeling like parts of my personality were things I needed to tone down or hide. For a long time I believed that being fully myself might push people away. But motherhood has a funny way of bringing you back home to who you really are.I talk about embracing the quirks, the energy, the personality traits, and the gifts that make you uniquely you. Because the truth is, when you show up authentically in this season of motherhood, you naturally attract the people who are meant to be in your life.This episode is your reminder that you don’t have to shrink yourself, quiet yourself, or mold yourself into someone else to belong.You are more than enough exactly as you are.So if you’ve ever felt like you were “too much,” this pep talk is for you.

Talk dirty to me….But instead of roses or grand gestures… what if the sexiest words a mom can hear are:“I switched the laundry.”“I’ve got bedtime.”“Go lay down. I’ll handle the kids.”In this Monday Mom Pep Talk, we’re diving into the real reason support feels so attractive in motherhood. It’s not about the chore, it’s about not carrying the mental load alone. It’s about feeling seen. Partnered. Supported. Safe.Motherhood comes with invisible labor…the appointments, the spirit days, the emotional temperature of the house, the constant mental checklist running in the background. And when someone steps in without being asked? That’s intimacy.In this pep talk, I talk about:• Why we were never meant to do this alone• How shared responsibility builds connection• Why carrying all the plates isn’t noble• And how receiving help is a skill we can learnIf you’ve ever felt like you’re spinning all the plates and praying none crash…this episode is for you.Because sometimes the most romantic words in the world are:“I’ve got it.”Tune in, take a breath, and remember.. you don’t have to carry motherhood alone. 🌹
