Rebecca Shellito stepped into the spotlight,  as she accepted an honor that many would covet - yet for her, it was a mountain of anxiety to climb. Our heart-to-heart conversation reveals Rebecca's raw battle with the glare of recognition while juggling life as a caregiver for her child with autism. As I walk her through her trepidation and strategize ways to navigate this prestigious event, we uncover the universal stress of public accolades and the underestimated impact of seeking support. It's a compelling lesson in valuing our personal victories, even as we shoulder the weight of our day-to-day lives.

The conversation then takes a lighter turn as we swap stories of unexpected joy, like the time an employer-sponsored getaway offered much more than just a break from the office. Together, we celebrate the simple yet powerful act of fun and self-care and how it can rekindle our spirits and transform our relationships. We laugh over the familiar pangs of 'mom guilt' and debunk those self-imposed narratives that hold us back from embracing life's playful moments. It's a candid exchange with Rebecca about the friendships that see us through our highs and lows, emphasizing the beauty of honesty, intention, and the little efforts that keep our bonds strong. Join us for a heartfelt journey through the transformative power of honoring our achievements, seizing joy, and cherishing the friendships that light up our lives.
