What does it actually feel like to be “always on edge” as a parent?
In this episode, we’re talking about the reality of living in a constant state of readiness—the kind that doesn’t come from anxiety, but from experience. The quiet scanning, the mental load, the way your nervous system never fully switches off… even on the good days.
We get into what “walking on eggshells” really means, why it’s so often misunderstood, and how parenting in this space isn’t about being overly cautious—it’s about being deeply attuned.
Because when you know your child the way we know Clark, you start to see the smallest shifts before anyone else does.
This episode is honest, raw, and grounded in the in-between—where love, exhaustion, connection, and survival all exist at the same time.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly bracing, adjusting, or carrying more than people can see… this one’s for you.
