Zen Supermom: The Mental Fitness Podcast
I'm not a supermom. But I always wanted to be one and have it all: family, career/business that I love, AND the time for myself. But that ambition without proper stress resistance and resilience killed my mom (cancer at 48) and drove me to the edge of burnout twice. Only when I saw the disastrous effects of my anger, stress, and resentment on my little daughter, I knew I had to change... Since then, not only have I healed but I also helped thousands of other women all around the world through trauma-informed therapy and mental fitness training. And I decided to share the most vulnerable and valuable pieces of my and their journey here. Because if we got out of that dark, stuck place of feeling like a terrible mom, YOU CAN DO IT TOO. So choose the episode that speaks to you and tune in!

Ep 76: Beyond Your Drama & Stress Addiction: How to Stop Reacting Like Your Parents
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Our parents deserve respect for bringing us into this world. And they also deserve compassion for having been perfectly imperfect, doing their best to raise us.
And, that doesn't mean that we are bound to repeat their emotional patterns, relive their lives, and believe in the same things they did.
So whenever you find yourself unable to take a break because your parents taught you that you can feel proud only if you keep pushing hard 24/7, or you keep criticizing yourself for not being perfect - just like they used to criticize you... then this podcast episode is for you.
How to break the emotional patters and belief blueprints of your own parents?

Hi, I’m Alena - founder of Zen Supermom and creator of the IDTR method (Intergenerational Developmental Trauma Repatterning).
I work with thoughtful, committed parents who have already tried to understand themselves - and still find themselves reacting under pressure in ways they don’t want.
My work focuses on changing the underlying pattern that formed early, shows up in the nervous system under stress, and gets passed on to the next generation unless addressed as a whole.
