In this Valentine’s Day–themed episode of the Mama Work It Podcast, we’re joined by Colette Jane Fehr, licensed psychotherapist, nationally recognized relationship expert, and author of the newly released book The Cost of Quiet: How to Have the Hard Conversations That Create Secure, Lasting Love.

Colette explains why so many women—especially working moms—stay quiet in their relationships, even when something feels off.

• What “quiet” really looks like in modern relationships (it's probably not what you're thinking)
• Why women and moms are especially likely to silence their needs

In this episode of the Mama Work It Podcast, we sit down with Christine Fitzgerald, a former competitive gymnast turned nutrition and hormone healing expert, whose own health crisis at just 20 years old changed the course of her life. Thrown into clinical menopause while training at an elite level, Christine experienced extreme fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, and weight changes that no amount of exercise or clean eating could fix.

Her search for answers led her to earn a master’s degree in nutrition, publish two books on wellness and mindset, and spend over 25 years helping women heal hormones, restore energy, and feel at home in their bodies again.

Christine’s work blends science and soul—combining data-driven nutrition and hormone testing with nervous system regulation, breathwork, and mindset practices. She calls this integrative approach Remembrance Work, helping women’s bodies remember what safety, balance, and vitality feel like.

This episode is especially powerful for working moms who feel tired, foggy, inflamed, or stuck despite “doing all the right things.”

What We Cover in This Episode

• Christine’s journey from Olympic-level gymnastics to early clinical menopause
• Why so many women feel exhausted even when they eat clean and exercise
• The hidden role of hormones, stress, and nervous system overload

In this powerful episode of the Mama Work It podcast, we dive into one of the sneakiest sources of stress and self-doubt for moms: comparison. From social media highlight reels to milestone pressure, it’s easy to feel like you’re “behind” or “not enough.”

But Mama — your journey is allowed to look different.

In today’s conversation, we unpack:

• Why comparison is such a natural part of motherhood
• How social media amplifies insecurity (and how to take back control)
• What it means to honor the season you’re in
• Mindset and practical tools to shift out of comparison mode
• How your relationship with comparison impacts your kids
• A grounding, guided reframe to help you reconnect to your own path

This episode is your reminder that growth has no timeline — and you can release the pressure to compete with anyone else’s life but your own.

Key Takeaways:

• Comparison isn’t a character flaw — it’s a habit you can break.
• Curate your inputs: protect your mental health on social media.
• Honor your season — you are not meant to grow at the same pace as everyone else.
• Use tools like:
   
  • “That’s for her, this is for me.” 
  • Shifting from comparison to curiosity. 
  • Celebrating small victories daily.
  • Your kids learn confidence from watching you break comparison cycles.

If you’ve ever set a goal in January only to abandon it by February, this episode is for you.

What We Cover in This Episode

✨ Why Goals Matter
Marisa explains why having goals is essential—not just for productivity, but for clarity, confidence, and personal fulfillment. Goals help us move intentionally instead of reacting to life’s demands.

🧠 Mindset & Belief: The Foundation of Achievement
Before any strategy works, you have to believe your goal is possible. We talk about how mindset, self-trust, and identity play a huge role in whether you follow through.

🎯 Practical Goal-Setting Strategies That Work
Marisa breaks down several proven tools you can mix and match:

• Word of the Year – choosing a single guiding word to anchor your decisions and energy
• SMART Goals – setting goals that are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound
• WOOP Method – wish, outcome, obstacle, plan—how to anticipate challenges before they derail you
• Vision Boards – using visualization to keep goals top of mind
• Gamification – making progress fun, motivating, and rewarding instead of overwhelming

🤝 The Power of Accountability
Why having an accountability partner can dramatically increase your chances of success—and how to make it happen.

🛠 Turning Big Goals Into Sustainable Action
How to break goals down into small, doable steps that fit into real mom life (because perfection is not required).

This episode is perfect for you if:

• You’re setting goals for the new year and want them to actually stick
• You feel overwhelmed by traditional goal-setting advice
• You’re a working mom looking for realistic, flexible strategies
• You want structure and grace as you grow

Can you believe it, mama? We’ve hit 200 episodes! 🥳

When I launched the Mama Work It Podcast back in January 2021, I had no idea how many incredible conversations, lessons, and stories would unfold. Over nearly five years, I’ve had the honor of connecting with some truly inspiring guests—moms, experts, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders—who’ve all taught me something powerful about what it means to be an ambitious mom.

In this special milestone episode, I’m reflecting on 10 of the most impactful lessons I’ve learned from guests since day one. Whether you’ve been here since Episode 1 or just joined the community, these takeaways are golden reminders for every stage of motherhood, ambition, and life.

Being an ambitious mom means constantly learning, evolving, and showing up for yourself and your family. These lessons remind us that ambition and motherhood don’t compete—they complement each other beautifully.

Thank you for being part of 200 episodes, mama. Here’s to the next 200, filled with more wisdom, growth, and community. 💖

As a mom, being vulnerable can feel like something we are very uncomfortable with. Plus, who has time for that? 

And yet, vulnerability is what connects us the most. Vulnerability can form long lasting friendships. Vulnerability can be the key we need to get into a happier and less lonely mental space. Vulnerability, as taboo as it is, is the secret sauce for moms to thrive, not just survive the season of motherhood. Because doing the impossible shouldn’t be something we do masked in silence. 

As a writer being the core of what I love to do, I wrote a vulnerable story I’m sharing with you this week on the podcast (and the blog). Whether you relate to the content of the story or not, I hope you feel empowered to share your vulnerability with the world too, because chances are it will connect you more than you ever imagined.

Different kind of episode this week—hope you enjoy!
