AM I DOING THIS RIGHT?

Mom guilt—two words we all know too well. Whether it’s second-guessing decisions, feeling like we’re not enough, or worrying about the impact of every little choice, the weight of guilt can be exhausting.

In this episode, I sit down with Rebecca Fox Starr, therapist, writer, and maternal mental health advocate, to talk about why mom guilt is so persistent and how we can manage it in a healthier way. As a licensed social worker and author of Am I Doing This Right?, Rebecca shares insights on navigating guilt, building resilience, and finding confidence in the messy, unpredictable journey of parenting.

If you’ve ever questioned your choices as a mom, this episode is for you. Listen now and learn how to let go of the guilt and embrace the journey.

ESSENTIAL MINUTE | BERGAMOT®

That question—Am I doing this right?—lives in the back of so many moms’ minds. We second-guess choices, compare ourselves to others, and carry guilt even when we don’t need to. But what if we traded self-doubt for self-trust?

doTERRA Bergamot® is the perfect essential oil for moments of uncertainty. Known for its uplifting and calming properties, Bergamot helps ease self-judgment and promote confidence—reminding you that you are enough, even when motherhood feels messy.

How to use it:

  • Diffuse Bergamot® when doubt creeps in and you need a reminder to trust yourself.

  • Apply to your wrists in the morning to set a tone of self-compassion for the day.

  • Inhale deeply before making a tough decision—because you are more capable than you think.

Motherhood isn’t about getting it perfect—it’s about showing up, learning, and growing. You are doing this right.
