Why Exhausted Moms Lose Patience Faster (Even When They Love Their Kids) If you're an exhausted working mom who feels like you're losing patience with your kids lately, you're not alone.

Do you snap and think, “Why am I so impatient lately?” In this episode, we talk about why losing patience isn't a character flaw — it's often a nervous system problem caused by constant role switching. Inside this episode: • Why constantly switching between work and motherhood drains your nervous system faster than you realize• The science behind “switch cost” and why your brain pays an energy tax every time you shift roles• Why snapping is often a transition gap, not a patience problem• How powering through keeps your system stuck in productivity mode• A simple 30-second transition practice that can help you catch the snap before it happens Core insight:The problem isn’t your patience.It’s the missing shift between roles.
