Monica is a mother who is taking time for herself for the first time in her life. She says that she's declining some family dinner invitations, taking mornings to go to yoga, and spending a day in a nearby hotel to rest and recharge. Her husband is mostly supportive of her taking time to herself and recharging is making her a better mom. However, she's been getting some judgement from her sister and her mom. They both say that a mother shouldn't need a break and Monica doesn't know how to respond. Ellen, Sarah, and Ryan help Monica understand her own feelings and need for a break, how she can make sure her husband is able to recharge, and what responses she can use when she feels judged by her sister and mother.
