Krystina Wales

In this Moms Unfiltered edition of Operations Unfiltered, I’m joined by Krystina Wales, Associate Director of Media at GBMC HealthCare and host of the Practical Parenting podcast. We get into the behind-the-scenes of balancing motherhood, healthcare marketing, and emotional wellness while navigating demanding careers and raising children. We also talk about therapy, people-pleasing, mom guilt, toddler meltdowns, influencer marketing in healthcare, and the systems and boundaries that help keep everything running — even when life feels chaotic. Plus, we share honest reflections on parenting, apologizing to your kids, and learning how to give yourself grace in the process. If you’re balancing career life, motherhood, healing, or simply trying to keep all the moving pieces together — this one’s for you.
