On Episode 12 of the Burnt Pancakes podcast, I sit down and have a momversation with Ailana Eames, a Mom of 2, a Licensed Psychotherapist, Wellness Educator, and someone who knows what it is like to forget to care for yourself in the midst of all the roles you play. Her passion is to empower, encourage, and inspire women to regain who they are and take themselves from a level of surviving the day to a place of thriving each day! She provides you with real life examples and everyday tips on how to show up for yourself and live the life you are wanting!
