Walk With Me Mom: From Burnout to Balance

03|Letting Go of Guilt, Embracing Your Enough-ness

Nicki Bradley

Hey, amazing moms! Welcome to Episode 3 of Walk With Me Mom: From Burnout to Balance. I’m Nicki, your fellow autism mom, here to walk with you through this journey. Grab your coffee—I’m so glad you’re here.

Today, we’re tackling guilt—that heavy feeling when you’re not “enough” for your autistic child. I share a raw story of being consumed by to-do lists, missing moments with my kids, and feeling guilty for not being present. We’ll explore your guilt—maybe it’s a missed therapy goal or a stressful day—and how to embrace your enough-ness.

What You’ll Hear

  • My story of guilt from chasing control and learning to be present.
  • Practical tips: Pause and breathe, embrace the mess, practice gratitude, rest for 5 minutes.
  • Faith encouragement from 2 Corinthians 12:9: “My grace is sufficient for you.”
  • Ways to shift from guilt to joy with small, intentional moments.

Takeaways

  • You’re enough—guilt doesn’t define you.
  • Pause, embrace mess, and list one daily gratitude.
  • Lean into faith: God’s grace covers you.
