Sigourney Cantelo on how burnout led to rehab
About this episode
Sigourney Cantelo discusses her journey through burnout and rehab, exploring the pressures of motherhood and the impact of childhood trauma on parenting.
What happens when the strong mum finally admits she’s not coping? This week, I sit down with Sigourney Cantelo for one of the rawest conversations we’ve had on the podcast — burnout, anxiety, motherhood, childhood trauma and the pressure women feel to hold everything together while quietly falling apart. We unpack rehab, guilt, shame, repair with our children and the ways our own upbringing can shape how we parent today.
