Nov 25, 2025

Cara dives deep into one of the most common and most frustrating experiences shared by working moms in their late 30s and 40s: brain fog. She unpacks the major causes behind forgetfulness, mental fuzziness, disrupted focus, and “not feeling like yourself” and then Cara walks you through her six favorite supports that can truly move the needle. This episode is a practical guide that will help you reclaim clarity, confidence, and cognitive wellbeing in midlife motherhood.

Key Takeaways

  • New habits don’t require huge time commitments—just intention and repetition.
  • Shifting the internal script from perfection to self-support helps you feel more capable and grounded.
  • Midlife is a natural season to recalibrate and place our health higher on the priority list.
