Rant Therapy - I’m So Over The Mental Weight Of Being A Mom! Sep 19, 2023

Show notes

The best (and cheapest) therapy for those small things that get under your skin is sometimes a good venting session so you can get it off your chest and move on with your life! And if you’re not privy to the first-hand vent-a-thon, then being a fly on the wall listening is hopefully equally therapeutic and also maybe entertaining.

Welcome to Rant Therapy, a podcast short powered by the hosts of the Happy Eating podcast, Brierley Horton and Carolyn Williams, where we periodically share our real-life venting sessions with each other—AKA what we’re “so over”.

What’s Brierley So Over this week? I’m So Over The Mental Weight of Being a Mom!

A lack of sleep is never good for your mood and there’s plenty of research that supports a connection between poor sleep and mental health conditions like anxiety. So what do you do? Take melatonin of course! It’s become one of the most popular supplements to take for adults and kids for sleep, but is it truly helpful, or can it be harmful?
