Are you a mama who loves fiercely but sometimes feels overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure if you’re doing enough? Do you long to feel more joy in your daily life—not just someday, but right now? You are not alone, and this space was created just for you. Welcome to The I’ve Got You Mama Podcast. I’m Maria—a master certified coach, author, speaker, founder of The Joyful Reinvention, mom of six, and brand-new grandma (Lita!).

In this podcast, you’ll find encouragement, practical tools, and whole-person wellness strategies to help you step out of overwhelm and into more peace, intention, and fulfillment.

Some episodes will be just you and me, mama-to-mama, and at times I’ll invite expert guests to share wisdom that supports your journey. This is your safe space to lay down the weight of comparison and self-doubt, and instead, pick up confidence, calm, and clarity. Because you deserve to enjoy your life now—not after the to-do list is finished, not when the kids are older, but in this very season. So grab a cozy drink, take a deep breath, and join me here each week. Together, let’s create more joy, balance, and intention in your life and motherhood—’cause I’ve got you, mama.

Hey mama,

Have you ever wondered why some challenges seem to knock us flat while others feel more manageable? Or why some seasons take weeks, months, or even years to recover from?

The truth is, resilience isn't about avoiding hard things. It's not about always being strong or bouncing back overnight. It's about learning how to navigate life's challenges and finding your footing again when life doesn't go according to plan.

Hey mama,

Have you ever reached the end of a day and wondered where it went?

You checked the boxes, answered the messages, drove the kids, handled the responsibilities, and somehow still felt like you never really arrived in your own life.

I think a lot of us know what it feels like to be busy. The harder question is whether we're present.

What happens when rushing becomes our default setting? When was the last time you sat down wi...

Hey mama,

Have you had one of those moments lately where you look up and realize summer is already here?

Maybe you've spent the last few weeks surviving graduations, recitals, sports schedules, end-of-year celebrations, work responsibilities, and all the things that come with this season of life. Maybe you've been so busy getting through May that you haven't had a chance to think about what you actually want this summer to be about...

Hey mama,

Sometimes we think making an impact has to mean doing something big—starting a movement, changing the world, or adding one more thing to our already full lives.

But what if impact is much closer than that?

What if it’s found in the relationships we build, the people we serve, the experiences that expand our perspective, and the ways we choose to connect with the world around us?

In this episode, I sit down wit...

Hey mama,

Have you ever gone through a season where it felt like life just kept hitting you before you had a chance to recover from the last thing?

Maybe you’ve still been showing up on the outside - taking care of people, getting things done, carrying responsibilities - while internally feeling emotionally exhausted, overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, or like your nervous system just can’t catch up. Maybe you&rsq...

Hey mama,

Have you ever felt frustrated because you know the mindset tools… but you still feel stuck?

Maybe you understand the thoughts you “should” be thinking, but your emotions still feel heavy. Maybe your nervous system feels overwhelmed, your body feels exhausted, or you keep wondering why growth still feels hard even when you’re trying so hard to do all the “right” things.

Hey mama,

Have you ever looked around at your life and realized that so much of who you are has been shaped by caring for everyone else? Not in a resentful way. Not because you regret it. But because for so long, your attention, energy, and love have naturally been poured outward first.

And maybe now—whether your children are growing up, your season is shifting, or you simply have a tiny bit more space to breathe—someth...

Episode 18 Show Notes

Hey mama,

Have you ever had one of those moments where you stop and think… everything in my life looks good… so why don’t I feel good? Maybe you’re showing up, getting things done, keeping all the plates spinning—and from the outside, it looks like you have it all together. But inside, does it ever feel heavy? A little disconnected?

Hey mama,

Are you in a season where things feel like they’re changing… even if you can’t fully name how?

Maybe life feels full in a way that’s hard to explain. Busy, emotional, meaningful—all at the same time. And somewhere in the middle of it, you might find yourself wondering how to hold onto these moments… without feeling like they’re slipping through your fingers.

What if this season ...

Hey mama,

Have you ever gotten to the end of the day and thought… that’s not how I wanted to show up?

Maybe you felt stretched thin, pulled in too many directions, or like you didn’t even have a moment to take a breath and check in with yourself. And before you knew it, you were reacting instead of responding—snapping, overcommitting, or letting go of the very things that usually help you feel grounded.

Hey mama,

Have you ever found yourself thinking, “I just wish I felt more confident…” - like there’s some version of you out there who has it all together, and you’re just not quite there yet?

Or maybe you’ve been waiting… waiting until you feel more ready, more sure,

more certain before you take that next step?

What if confidence isn’t something you’re missing… but som...

Hey mama,

Have you ever found yourself thinking, “I’ll do that when I feel more confident”… and then realizing weeks (or even months) have gone by and you’re still in the same place?

Not because you don’t care… but because you don’t quite feel ready yet.

I wonder—what if you’ve been taught to think about confidence in a way that’s quietly keeping you stuck?

Hey mama,

Have you ever caught yourself moving through your day feeling a quiet pressure you can’t quite name… like there’s an invisible list you’re trying to keep up with?

The kind where you’re anticipating needs, holding things together, remembering everything, and still wondering why it doesn’t feel like enough?

Hey mama,

Have you ever had one of those moments where you just pause and think… something feels off?

Not in a dramatic, something-is-wrong way. But in a quiet, harder-to-explain way.

Like you’re more tired than you used to be… your mind doesn’t feel as clear… your body doesn’t quite respond the way it once did.

And maybe you’ve wondered—Is this just part of getting older? Or why d...

Hi Mama!

Have you ever looked around your home and felt overwhelmed… but also unsure where to even begin?

Like no matter how many times you clean, organize, or reset… it never quite stays that way?

For a lot of women—especially moms—clutter isn’t just about stuff.

It’s the constant decision-making. The unfinished piles. The mental tabs that never fully close.

Hi Mama!

Have you ever noticed how certain thoughts about yourself feel permanent?

Like, “This is just who I am.” “I’ve always been this way.” “I’m just not the kind of person who…”

Hey Mama!

Maybe you’ve felt it too.

That quiet sense that you’re ready for more… but something inside you still feels hesitant.

Maybe you’re doing a lot of things right, but something still feels heavy or unsupported.

Maybe you notice how naturally compassion flows toward everyone else, yet how hard it can be to offer that same kindness to yourself.
