The Mom Health Crisis Nobody Talks About
Mom's Guide to Finding Herself: Rediscovering Identity and Joy in Motherhood·Krissy Bold·20 April 2026·11 min

About this episode
When did you last go to the doctor for yourself? Not for a sick kid, not a well-child visit — for you. When did you last get a mammogram, a skin check, a physical? When did you last work out for more than 11 minutes before someone needed something?
If you just cringed a little, this episode is for you.
Krissy gets honest about her own experience scheduling a mammogram around everyone else's life — and what it revealed about how moms are conditioned to put themselves last. This isn't a lecture. It's a real conversation about why self-care feels so impossibly hard when everyone depends on you, and a practical way to start changing that without overhauling your entire life.
In this episode:
Why becoming a mom rewires you to deprioritize yourself
The guilt that shows up the moment you try to take care of yourself — and what it actually means
Why waiting for things to "slow down" is keeping you stuck
Krissy's 3-tier health framework: one appointment, 10 minutes of movement, and a bare minimum baseline
The 10-day movement challenge — and why it works for moms specifically
This one is honest, warm, and leaves you with something you can actually do today. Come find Krissy on Instagram at @momidentityproject and let her know what appointment you're finally booking.
