  Why You Stress Clean: The Psychology Behind It

  Aug 6, 202628 min

  Why do some people cry when they're overwhelmed... while others suddenly feel the urge to scrub the kitchen, reorganize a closet, or deep clean the entire house? If you've ever found yourself stress cleaning and wondered, "Why can't I just sit down and relax?" - this episode is for you. The truth is, stress cleaning isn't laziness, perfectionism, or simply "liking a clean house." For many people, it's an automatic nervous system response that developed long before adulthood. And once you understand what your body is actually trying to do , everything starts to make a lot more sense. In this episode, therapists Vanessa and Alyssa unpack the neurobiology behind stress cleaning, why it often shows up during seasons of anxiety and overwhelm, and how your childhood experiences may still be shaping the way you cope today. But here's the part many people miss...Stress cleaning isn't necessarily the problem. The more important question is what your nervous system is trying to accomplish. Together, they explore the difference between coping that simply provides temporary relief and coping that actually helps you process what's happening. You'll also walk away with practical, body-based strategies you can begin experimenting with immediately...without forcing yourself to "just calm down." Whether stress cleaning is your go-to or you've never understood why someone else does it, this conversation will likely change how you view automatic coping responses. If this conversation helped you understand yourself a little differently, we'd love to keep the conversation going.

  Motherhood, Identity & Nervous System Healing: Staying Connected to Yourself While Raising Children with Danielle Shugg

  Jul 23, 202648 min

  Motherhood asks so much of us. It's easy to slowly become disconnected from the parts of ourselves that existed before, alongside, and beyond being "mom." In this week's conversation, we're joined by Danielle from The Mindful Blonde for an honest discussion about motherhood, identity, attachment parenting, nervous system healing, social media, and what it means to stay connected to yourself while caring deeply for the people you love. One of our favorite reminders from this conversation? There isn't one right way to do motherhood. You don't need to parent exactly like someone else. You don't need to fit neatly into a philosophy or label. You get to become curious about what feels aligned for you, your children, and your family. We talk about: Staying connected to yourself in motherhood Navigating parenting choices with more self-trust Why our triggers can become invitations for deeper understanding The relationship between nervous system healing and parenting Finding balance between closeness, care, and self-compassion Remembering that you're more than one role or identity This conversation feels less like being given answers and more like being invited back into relationship with yourself. Because when we're connected to ourselves, we're often more available for the people we love, too. Listen wherever you get your podcasts. If this conversation resonated with you, we'd love for you to stay connected. You can follow Danielle Shugg @themindfulblonde on Instagram and continue exploring her reflections on motherhood, nervous system healing, and self-connection through The Mothership on Substack . We're also building a space for mothers to have these conversations beyond social media inside The Mama Healing Hub a virtual, therapist-led community rooted in connection, growth, and self-trust. You can also follow us on Instagram at @themamahealinghubinc . If this episode offered something meaningful to you, following the podcast, sharing it with someone you love, or leaving a review is one of the most meaningful ways to support these conversations and help us reach more mothers who may need them.

  How Do You Know You're Done Having Kids?

  Jun 18, 202632 min

  In this episode of The Mama Healing Hub Podcast, we're having one of the biggest conversations many parents quietly wrestle with: How do you know when you're done having kids? There isn't a checklist or a perfect answer. For some families, the decision feels clear. For others, it's layered with grief, uncertainty, differing desires, mental health considerations, finances, age gaps, relationship dynamics, and questions about capacity. As three therapists and mothers with very different experiences, we share our own stories of deciding whether to grow our families, navigating conversations with our partners, and exploring how fear, desire, and emotional readiness all play a role. This isn't an episode about convincing you one way or another. It's an invitation to slow down, reflect, and make sense of what might be influencing your own decision. In this episode, we explore: Why deciding to stop having children is rarely just a practical decision How mental health and nervous system capacity can shape family planning What happens when partners want different family sizes The role fear can play in staying stuck or rushing a decision Why choosing not to decide right now can be a decision in itself How to approach this conversation with more curiosity, clarity, and self-trust If you've ever found yourself wondering, Should we have another baby? or Is our family complete? this conversation is for you. 🤍 Stay Connected If you enjoyed today's episode and you're looking for more thoughtful conversations about motherhood, healing, relationships, and understanding yourself a little better, we'd love to stay connected. ✨ Follow us on Instagram: @themamahealinghubinc for behind-the-scenes updates and all the details about our upcoming relaunch. 📩 Want the first look before everyone else?

  Who Are You Outside of Motherhood?

  Jun 11, 202626 min

  Sometimes the hardest question to answer isn't "What do you need?" it's "What actually brings you joy?" In this episode, the three therapists behind The Mama Healing Hub guide each other through a simple visualization exercise that uncovers something surprisingly profound. If you were dropped alone on a peaceful island with no responsibilities, no expectations, and nowhere else to be… what would you naturally find yourself doing? Together, Vanessa, Carrie, and Alyssa reflect on the challenge many moms face when they've spent so long caring for everyone else that they've lost touch with what lights them up. They explore how reconnecting with joy doesn't have to mean planning a getaway or overhauling your life..it can begin with noticing the small moments that make you feel more like yourself. In this episode, we explore: Why so many mothers struggle to answer the question, "What do I enjoy?" A visualization exercise to help reconnect with yourself The surprising role creativity can play in emotional regulation Why community and safe relationships make joy easier to access How tiny moments of pleasure can become powerful acts of self-care If you've ever wondered who you are outside of your responsibilities, this conversation is an invitation to get curious. And if you're looking for a place to keep having these kinds of conversations, The Mama Healing Hub is a virtual, therapist-led community where mothers can find real connection, guided support, and a space to come back to themselves. Follow us on Instagram (@themamahealinghubinc) and subscribe to stay up to date with our relaunch and everything happening inside the Hub.
