62: How To Stop Shoulding All Over Yourself


Listen Later

Do you think you ‘should’ do certain things that you are just not doing?  That there is a way you ‘should’ be as a Mom?

In this Episode I’m sharing: 

  • the common Shoulds a lot of us feel as Moms
  • WHY you need to let these go
  • some NEW Shoulds I would encourage you to use instead
  • Momma Action Step

    Sit down, pen and paper/journal, and create a list of HOW you want to be as a parent, work, and live your life. Create a healthier list of shoulds.  Take just 30 minutes to do this very powerful exercise, and then post it where you can see it a a reminer each day.
