Have you ever found yourself prepping everything before you leave the house—or swooping in to “just fix it” when your partner handles a parenting moment differently than you would? It might feel helpful or necessary in the moment, but over time, it can quietly erode your partnership and leave you feeling more like a manager than a teammate.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the hidden cost of stepping in too often, why it happens (hint: it’s not just about your spouse), and how you can begin to shift this pattern in a way that benefits everyone in your family.

This isn’t about blame—it’s about awareness, relief, and building the kind of marriage where you feel held, supported, and safe to let go a little.

Tune in to discover:

• The deeper reasons why moms step in, even when they don’t want to
• What stepping in too often teaches your partner (and why it’s not helping)
• The emotional weight of always being “on” and how it builds resentment
• The powerful mindset shift that helped me finally stop doing it all
• Conversations that build real partnership instead of more to-do lists
