Episode 33: Why High Achieving Women Feel Unworthy (And How to Reclaim Your True Identity)

What if the pressure you feel… isn’t actually about doing more—but about proving something you were never meant to earn? 
 
In this episode, I’m unpacking a conversation that stirred something deep in me after the Worthy Woman Summit. Many of us are quietly carrying this weight of performance pressure, approval-seeking, and feeling unworthy no matter how much we do or how 'fine' we seem.
 
We're digging into how worthiness gets entangled with achievement, why failure feels so personal, and how your internal dialogue shapes everything—from how you perceive yourself, motherhood, leadership to how you perceive others and show up in your relationships.
 
And more importantly, we're learning how to shift your lens.
 
This is about realignment—coming back to your true identity, releasing the need to prove yourself, and learning to live from a place of already being enough. It's one thing to hear it, quite another to believe it in your heart.
 
In this episode, you’ll start to question:
✨ What if your sense of worth has been shaped by the wrong scorecard?
✨ Why does failure feel like it defines something personal about you?
✨ What would change if you stopped seeking approval and started living aligned?
 
You don’t have to earn your worth—you get to return to it.
 
If this episode resonated with you, share it with another woman who’s been carrying it all and feels less than worthy of the call. And don’t miss Awaken the Heart of Your Home – Spring Session! It's coming up on Friday, May 1st. Space is limited, so reserve your seat today at the link below:

Episode 32: You Have Time: Breaking Free from Busyness, Guilt, and “Never Enough” in Motherhood with Lissa Figgins

Tell me if this feels familiar: Everyday is a race. You wake-up and before your feet hit the floor, your to-do list has taken over your thoughts and you already feel behind. You stay constantly busy, it feels productive but when the day's over, you don't feel like you've gained any ground. It's like swimming against the current. No matter how hard you try, you just can't seem to do enough to feel GOOD, successful, or capable of rest.
 
I can't tell you how much I can relate and that's exactly why I invited my guest on the show today because, she has practical steps you can take today to hop off the busy treadmill and take back your time. This is not traditional time management, this is time stewardship.
 
Lissa Figgins is a former BUSY-ness owner who learned to un-hurry her heart and release the need to control time, multitask, and always be doing. Now, as a Scaling Strategist, she helps the busy Christian business owner grow her revenue and results by multiplying the 24 hours she’s been given—rather than trying to manage them. She’s known for speaking one simple truth: You. Have. Time.
 
In this episode, Lissa shares very candidly about her own busyness battle and how she got unstuck. She shares what she found was tied to her need to stay busy which, I think we all can relate to. Busy is the symptom, but the root is tied to things like our self-worth, insecurities, perfectionism, and performance-based value.
 
Lissa also walks us through her simple yet highly transformative 3-step process that will help you move from chasing time to actually stewarding it well. This isn’t about doing more—it’s about doing what matters.
 
We also chat about living in reactivity, how to create intentional rhythms through time anchors, and how to truly be present and enjoy your season as a mom, your leadership, and simply daily life.
 
You don’t need more hours in the day. You just need to shift your mindset and reclaim the day because, as Lissa would say—You. Have. Time.
 
If this message spoke to you, go share it with a friend who’s also stuck in busy mode! And make sure you’re subscribed to The BAD Mom Show and leave a review so more women can see, they're not alone! 💛

Episode 31: Overthinking

Ever feel like you’re doing all the “right” things—planning, preparing, thinking ahead—but somehow you’re still not moving forward? Yeah… I’ve been there too. And what I’ve realized is this: what feels like responsibility might actually be the very thing keeping you stuck.
 
In this episode, I’m getting real about overthinking—how it shows up in motherhood, leadership, and everyday decisions—and why it’s often rooted in fear, doubt, and questioning your worthiness. As women, especially high-capacity, high-achieving ones, we tend to overanalyze everything trying to stay in control… but it’s exhausting and it’s not where growth happens.
 
I share how overthinking is connected to your story, your mindset, and your faith—and how healing begins when you stop trying to control everything and start trusting God with the next step. This is about moving from analysis paralysis into aligned action, even when it feels scary.
 
In this episode, you’ll start to notice:
✨ Why “being prepared” might actually be masking something deeper✨ What your overthinking is really trying to protect you from✨ How one small step could change everything
 
You don’t need more time to think—you need the courage to move.
 
If this spoke to you, take a moment to reflect, share it with a friend, and don’t forget to follow the show and leave a review. It helps more women step into healing, faith-based motherhood, and confident leadership. 💛

Episode 30: Feeling Behind? How To Shake Off Performance Pressure and Grow At A Kingdom Pace

It's already March and I be you're feeling it too. I’m talking about the undercurrent of panic that you're behind, missing the mark and you wonder 'what's wrong with me?' If you've felt the anxiety and slip back into pressuring yourself to do more, stay tuned. We're talking about it here.
 
March is a transition month. It symbolizes spring and brings hope that the long, cold, dark winter is finally coming to an end. Days grow longer and you see signs of new life start to pop up. It's calming and energizing at the same time. And God used it to show me how spring is actually an illustration of how we can grow in a lasting way, His way vs our traditional stressing and striving way.
 
What would it look like to actually operate from a place of peace and groundedness? The idea might feel completely unnatural but if we want to create new rhythms we have to intentionally slow down-- not speed up to catch up.
 
I won't tell you how God showed me this because I want you to feel it when you heart it yourself. But it's helped shift me out of striving and stress into more purpose-driven actions and allowed me to enjoy the journey whether that's in business, motherhood, marriage or personal growth. This is the key!

Get ready to be equipped to move forward into this new season with truth as your foundation, boldness in your spirit, and conviction about your authority as a leader and the heart of your home!
 
God's got something special waiting for you in this season and His timing is perfect so get excited to enjoy this fresh start!

Episode 29: Uplevel Your Leadership: Embracing Worthiness as High-Achieving Women with Amy Ramsey

Y'all get ready for a powerhouse episode! I had the honor of speaking with my friend, Amy Ramsey- an incredible leadership mentor and honestly-- just an incredible human being. We couldn't wait to sit down together and the conversation just flowed. Amy dropped so many nuggets of wisdom, ya might need to grab a pen or pull out Notes on your phone!
 
Amy and I dove into the thing that often stops us driven, high-performance women from reaching our full potential. Whether that's at home as wives and moms or scaling a business, there's a big gap between our heads and our hearts and we get stuck in familiar cycles based in- you guessed it- unworthiness.
 
Amy is so transparent and her own journey is such a testimony to what God can do in you and through you when you partner with His power versus striving and mounting pressure on yourself to perform better, do more, and ultimately burnout. She shares about her journey, surviving domestic abuse to building a life and business rooted in faith, worthiness, and 100% belief in God's ability to do above and beyond her wildest dreams.
 
How you define success is a key factor in this process- is it the world's way or the kingdom's way?
 
The energy got electric on this one and that's exactly what Amy does-- she embodies what she teaches and help women reignite the fire within them to step up and out into whatever God is truly calling you to. Don't chase someone else's dreams or compare your journey to theirs. God has you exactly where you're meant to be.
 
Amy also shares how YOU can come meet her (and me!) in person at her LIVE EVENT, the Worthy Woman Summit, coming up March 19-21st! Links to details and tickets are below. Don't miss this opportunity to get in the room!
 
I'm telling you! You're gonna love this woman! Here's her official creds if you're curious:
 
Amy Ramsey is a high-performance leadership and business strategist, keynote speaker, and author who equips high-capacity women to elevate their influence, optimize performance, and build success that actually lasts. Blending performance science, leadership principles, and business strategy, she helps driven women break through internal limitations and lead with clarity, confidence, and conviction. Featured on ABC, NBC, CBS, and FOX, Amy is also a survivor of domestic violence who has transformed deep adversity into purpose — building her life and leadership on a foundation of faith and resilience.

Episode 28: Intimacy After Marriage: Why It Feels Harder and How to Change

In this episode, I’m opening up about something many of us feel but don’t always talk about—why intimacy can start to feel harder after marriage, even when love is still there. I share honestly about the emotional layers, hidden triggers, and mindset shifts that can impact connection, and how our stories, healing journey, and faith all play a role in the way we show up with our spouse.
 
We explore how past wounds and nervous system responses can create distance, why pressure often replaces closeness, and what it looks like to move toward deeper emotional and physical connection with compassion instead of shame. This conversation is an invitation to slow down, get curious about your own patterns, and remember that growth in marriage is possible when we bring awareness and grace into the process.
 
If you’re navigating seasons of disconnection, or simply longing for more closeness, I hope this episode reminds you that healing and restoration are within reach.

Episode 27: Cold & Flu Season? You Don’t Have to Come into Agreement with That

Episode 27 - Cold & Flu Season? You Don’t Have to Come into Agreement with That
 
In this episode, I’m challenging something you may do without even realizing it and that's automatically coming into agreement with things like illness, with your words. Do you say things like 'well it's going around so we're bound to be next' or 'everyone's getting it' and 'it's just that time of year'? If so you need to stick around for this episode because I'm setting things straight on why that's not necessary and how to combat those fears!
 
Here’s a few things I unpack in this episode:
How your words carry spiritual authority and power
The connection between fear, stress, and physical health
How bold, spoken prayer shifts things internally and spiritually
 
and so much more. This conversation is all about activating your authority as a mom, a leader in your home and prayer warrior for your family. The idea of spiritual warfare might be new to you so listen with an open mind and be ready to learn how to fight back with the right weapon: bold prayer!
 
After you listen I want you to do 3 things:
 
1.  Save this episode so you can come back to it when fear tries to creep in.
 
2. Open your mouth and try praying out loud for yourself—heaven responds to spoken authority!
 
3. Share this episode with a friend who needs help believing bigger and activating her bold prayers.
 
And if you’re ready to go deeper in your own personal journey and step fully into bold leadership as the heart of your home—shoot me a DM to schedule a 20-minute discovery call.

Episode 26: Why You’re Doing Everything Right But Still Don’t Feel Loved | Faith-Based Healing & Mindset Shift

Have you ever found yourself doing all the right things—showing up, serving, loving, giving—and still not feeling truly seen or loved?
 
In this episode, I’m talking about that quiet disappointment so many of us carry in marriage, motherhood, and relationships. The unmet expectations. The resentment that sneaks in. The questions about our worth when appreciation doesn’t come back the way we hoped.
 
Here’s the truth I unpack:
Sometimes we’re looking to people to fill a space in our hearts that only God was designed to fill.
 
We talk about:
Why unmet expectations trigger deeper wounds
How our story shapes the way we receive love
The difference between performing for love vs. receiving unconditional love
What it means to let God meet you in your weakness instead of hiding it
 
This is about healing your mindset, strengthening your faith, and learning to live from a place of love not hustling for it.
 
There are some great reflection questions at the end of the episode that I think will really help you get clarity on this! And if this episode spoke to you, I would love if you could leave a review! I appreciate you!

Episode 25: From Triggered to Transformed: How Your Story Impacts Your Marriage with Brooke Rozzie

I'm excited to share today's episode with you where I got to chat with my dear friend Brooke Rozmenoski- aka Brooke Rozzie.
 
Brooke and I met while doing our own deep story work in a coaching program this past fall. Our stories are so powerful and impact every aspect of our lives, including our marriages. We haven't really talked about that here on The BAD Mom Show and it's an area Brooke is passionate about so, we're going there!
 
We unpack what happens when unresolved trauma, living in survival-mode, and everyday life triggers collide, creating conflict in your health, home and marriage. Brooke shares her experience of being severely sick with no 'reason' in sight. She shares how she lived in stress mode, triggered, blaming her husband for their problems, and finding themselves contemplating the word no couple ever wants to hear- divorce.
 
She shares how things truly changed when she began healing the broken places in her story- her traumas- and how their marriage transformed through the process. By paying attention to her body's signals, facing the pain with God's help instead of turning away, and sharing vulnerably with her husband, true transformation began. Her body also responded and now she's healthier than ever!
 
If you've felt stuck in survival mode, on edge, and disconnected from deep, meaningful relationships in your home, tune in. This episode will speak to you in an honest way and show you that there is hope for healing when you get to the root of what's truly broken.
 
After you listen, send this episode to a friend! We all need to hear this one! And if you're willing, please leave a review and let me know what spoke to you! You're going to love Brooke!
 
Brooke Rozmenoski (aka Brooke Rozzie) is a trauma-informed, biblically rooted Functional Nutrition Coach and founder of Faithfully Nourished. As a wife and mother of two, Brooke understands firsthand the challenges women face in tending to their health while navigating the demands of marriage, motherhood, and ministry. Brooke combines functional nutrition, nervous system support, and biblical truth to guide women out of survival mode and into Spirit-led, sustainable wholeness—so they can stop “doing healing” and start living from a place of Holy Spirit-led freedom.

Episode 24: An Inconvenient Truth

In today’s episode, I’m talking honestly about something we all experience (and complain about) but don't often talk about. I had a moment where the Holy Spirit put me in check and opened my eyes to this question: Are you willing to be inconvenienced? Ouch.
 
You know those moments. You've likely had at least one of them already today: You cleaned up the house and the kids come make a toy/shoe/school paper explosion. You take time to prepare dinner and no one likes it. You fold their clothes neatly only to find them in a ball in the drawer. There are lots of ways we show up as moms and no one notices. No one thanks you and before you know it that voice in your head starts grumbling, 'nobody cares about how much I do', 'I'm just here to serve' and, 'my needs don’t matter.' Be honest! Can you relate? You're not alone.
 
It all started with me sweeping the floor- yet again- and feeling very inconvenienced by our new puppy (if you haven't met him yet, go check out my feed @thetheresatodd to see the moment I brought him home!). It turned into a moment where God highlighted some truths I was feeling, things I needed to reflect on AND repent about.
 
Our stories, colliding with the world's view of motherhood as a thankless season that robs you of purpose, really sets us up for feeling like the victim of our own blessings. This is a conversation about pride, performance, control, and what God can teach us in the middle of the 'inconvenient' messy parts.
 
If you’ve been feeling invisible, unappreciated and irritated by the mundane tasks of motherhood, you're in the right place! You're not alone and there’s so much freedom in acknowledging your feelings honestly and sharing them. Motherhood isn’t about getting everything right and the more you become aware of your triggers, your body sensations, and the thoughts attached to those 'inconvenient' moments, the quicker you begin to heal the story and operate differently.
