Note to My Youngest Self - with Marie ( Why Working Mums Are Feeling So Miserable)
Do you ever feel like you’re failing at both work and motherhood? You’re not alone. In this episode of Lucky Last, I share the raw truth about why so many working mums feel exhausted, overwhelmed, and guilty and how it doesn’t have to be this way.
I reflect on the mornings I dropped my son at daycare while he cried desperately, and the guilt that made me feel like the worst mum in the world. These moments impacted my mental health, but they also became the catalyst for finding balance, freedom, and a better way to live as a working mum.
