He fixes things around the house before they become emergencies. He keeps doing what he's always done—consistently, reliably. But it doesn't land. Not even close.

Ep. 183: I'm Tired of Being the One Who Holds It All Together — And He Doesn't Even Know I Do
Send us a text Let me tell you what nobody sees. She's the glue. The memory. The calendar. The compass. She's the one who plans the college visits and remembers who needs a cavity filled. The one who's worrying at 2 a.m. about her kid's anxiety—whether they have real friends, whether they'll be okay, whether that comment they made last week was just teenage drama or something darker. She's the one tracking everyone's emotional temperature. Noticing when her daughter gets qui...

Ep. 182: I Don't Know If Anyone Actually Sees Me Anymore
Send us a text Let's talk about the loneliest feeling in the world. It's not being alone. It's being surrounded by people who love you—and still feeling completely invisible. You don't feel like yourself anymore. And you definitely don't feel like anyone else sees you either. Not your husband. Not your kids. Maybe not even your friends. You've been shape-shifting for years to hold it all together. Adapting. Adjusting. Accommodating. Being whatever everyone needed you to be. And no...

Ep. 181: He's Still Doing What He's Always Done — So Why Does It Feel So Wrong Now?
Send us a text Let's talk about the thing that's making you feel crazy. He's not doing nothing. He's mowing the lawn. Picking up dinner. Handling his side of things. He's doing what he's always done. But now? It doesn't feel like enough—because it isn't. The load changed. You changed. The needs changed. And the marriage? It didn't evolve. So you're standing there thinking: "Why does everything feel so off—even though nothing has technically changed?" And the answer is this: It's not wrong. It...

Ep. 180: "What If I Don't Even Love Him Anymore?"
Send us a text Can we talk about the thing you've been thinking but haven't said out loud? The thing that makes your stomach drop when it crosses your mind at 2 a.m.? The question that feels too scary, too final, too real to even whisper: "What if I don't even love him anymore?" Maybe you've been wondering this for weeks. Maybe months. Maybe it hit you out of nowhere last Tuesday when he walked in the door and you felt... nothing. Not anger. Not warmth. Just... empty. And now you're terrified...

Ep. 179: Why Does Everything Fall on You? Maybe You’re the Default Parent
Send us a text You've seen the memes. You've heard the term. Maybe you've even laughed at the jokes—the ones about being the family's human search engine, the walking calendar, the keeper of all knowledge about where the permission slips are, what size shoes everyone wears, and who has which food allergies. But maybe today is the first time you realize—it's you. You are the default parent. You're the one who remembers the dentist appointments and coordinates the rides. You fill the fridge, si...

Ep. 178: Finding the Good—Without Gaslighting Yourself
Send us a text You've heard it all before—"Just be grateful." "Find the silver lining." "Focus on what you can control." And if you're in the thick of it right now—managing aging parents who need more every week, grown kids who still need you in ways you didn't expect, a household that only runs because you're the one running it, plus work, relationships, and trying to remember the last time you felt like yourself—nothing stings more than being told to look on the bright side.

Ep. 177: Stop Waiting for Rescue: How to Carry Your Life Differently When Help Isn't Coming
Send us a text In this episode we're talking about something that might sting a little at first, but if you stick with me, it could change everything. Let's talk about rescue. Because if you're anything like most midlife women, you've been told you just need more support, more rest, more help. And don't get me wrong—those things matter. But they're not what's keeping you stuck. So what is? We’ll unpack it on this episode of The Intentional Midlife Mom podcast. Find out what's actually...

Ep. 176: Sprint Recap Day 3: Survival Isn't Failure—It's Success
Send us a text Here's the reframe that brought the biggest relief today inside the Sprint: Survival isn't failure. Survival is success. Survival is strength. I know that might sound impossible to believe—especially if you've been telling yourself that you're behind, that you're not doing enough, that everyone else has it more together than you do. But today, inside Day 3 of the 3-Day Survival Mode Rescue Sprint, women experienced a complete identity shift. They stopped seeing survival m...

Ep. 175: Sprint Recap Day 2: You Can Stop the Spin, Even in Chaos
Send us a text Do you ever feel like your brain is screaming, "I can't handle one more thing!"? Like you're already at capacity, and then someone asks you to remember something else, do something else, manage something else—and you want to just... break? That moment when one more demand hits your already full plate, and instead of handling it gracefully, you either snap or completely shut down? That's exactly what we tackled inside Day 2 of the Sprint today—and let me tell you, it was powerfu...

Send us a text Ever feel like you're just crashing out over and over again? You push through the day, white-knuckling your way from one demand to the next. You collapse at night, scroll your phone for twenty minutes, and then wake up tomorrow to do it all again. And somewhere in that cycle, you start to wonder: "What's wrong with me? Why can't I get it together?" Well, I'll tell you something I shared with the women inside the 3-Day Survival Mode Rescue Sprint today: It's not you. You're not ...

Ep. 173: Why Survival Mode Isn't Failure—And How to Make It Strong
Send us a text What if I told you that survival mode isn't a sign of failure—it's actually proof of your strength? I know that sounds radical. Maybe even impossible to believe right now. Because everywhere you look, you're getting the message that survival mode is something to escape, something to be ashamed of, something that proves you're not handling life well enough. But I believe the exact opposite. I believe survival mode is the place where you can grow stronger than ever. Not by escapi...

Ep. 172: Why You Keep Resetting (And How to Actually Move Forward)
Send us a text I need to tell you something that might sting a little. The real reason you keep starting over isn't lack of willpower. It's not because you're lazy, uncommitted, or broken. It's because you're trying to fix the wrong thing. I'm Jennifer Roskamp, and if you listened to last week's episode about becoming Survival Mode Strong, you know I don't sugarcoat the hard stuff. Today, we're going even deeper. Because here's what I've learned after working with hundreds of midlife women: Y...

Send us a text I need to tell you something that might sound a little radical. The world says the goal is to get out of survival mode. I say the goal is to get strong in it. I'm Jennifer Roskamp, and if you've been listening to this podcast for any length of time, you know I don't do fluff. I don't hand out checklists and pretend they'll change your life. And I definitely don't believe in the lie that if you just try harder, organize better, or wake up earlier, everything will magically fall ...

Ep. 170: From People-Pleasing to Peace: Taking Back the Driver's Seat in Midlife
Send us a text Hey friend, welcome back to The Intentional Midlife Mom Podcast. I'm Jennifer Roskamp, and today we're talking about something that hits way too close to home for most of us. Here's a stat that won't surprise you: 52% of women identify as people-pleasers, compared to 44% of men. But here's what's really happening—midlife is when this people-pleasing habit finally breaks us. You've spent decades being everything for everyone. The capable one. The one who holds it together.

Send us a text Hey, friend. Welcome back to The Intentional Midlife Mom podcast. I'm Jennifer Roskamp, and I have a question for you. How many times have you listened to something—maybe even one of my episodes—and thought "Finally, someone gets it"? You've nodded your head. Maybe you've even cried a little, in your car or folding laundry or wherever you sneak in these moments of truth. You've felt seen. Validated. Less alone. The weight you carry? The exhaustion that sits in your bones? The m...

Send us a text You’ve seen the phrase: “Women are carrying entire households on their nervous systems.” You know what? It’s not an exaggeration. Because while you're pouring cereal, responding to a work email, breaking up a kid fight, and thinking about your aging parents—all at once—your body’s screaming “this is too much.” This episode is not about productivity. It's about capacity. It’s about helping you name the mental traffic jam you’re managing, and how to start sorting through it—witho...

But what do you do when life becomes a complete dumpster fire and all that advice feels like someone telling you to "just relax" while your house is literally burning down? This episode is for the woman living in survival mode who is so tired of being told she's doing it wrong. You're not. You're doing what you have to do. Sometimes you CAN'T step back. Sometimes ...

Send us a text If you're tired of being everyone's backup plan, this episode is for you. I'm breaking down what the "mental load" really is...and why it's not just about the tasks you do, but about being the only one who remembers, anticipates, and carries responsibility for everyone else's needs. I'll share why "just take a break" advice falls flat when you're the family's emergency contact for everything, and why self-care can't fix a system that runs on you doing it all.

Send us a text Today, we're talking about something I see constantly in midlife...the endless cycle of Sunday night planning and Wednesday morning surrender. But instead of giving you another system to try, I want to share something even more powerful: the truths I wish someone had told me sooner. Because sometimes the most helpful thing isn't a new planner...it's hearing someone say, "You're not the problem. The old ways just stopped working."
