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 81: I Used To Be My Daughter's First Bully
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
I used to be my daughter's first bully. I used to yell at her, stress her out, and made her feel not good enough, and on top, made it her fault, blamed her for all of that.
And I'm able to talk about it openly, in public now, only because I managed to stop and heal it, and because after having helped hundreds of moms do the same, I realized I was not alone.
So if you'd like to know how to become a safe parent so that your children would come to you with any secrets or problems growing up, without being scared of your reaction, then this episode is for you.

Link to episode 35: Can’t Figure It Out Why You Keep Yelling at Your Kids, Though You Want To Stay Calm? (Generational Developmental Trauma Awareness)
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.
