Imagine you’re on a work trip, alone in a hotel room, scrolling through photos of your kids—and that familiar twinge of guilt stings your heart. In this episode of the Choose Better Thoughts podcast, we tackle the “I’m not a good enough mom” belief head-on, whether you’re traveling for business or just caught up in the daily juggle.

You’ll hear why acknowledging your emotions (instead of ignoring them) matters so much, and how you can use simple visualization techniques to shift from guilt to genuine calm. Join me as we explore quick, practical steps for trading self-doubt for the confidence that’s already inside you—no matter where you happen to be.
