8: Single Mom MD Mindset: Creating Action Plans to Reduce the Overwhelm


Listen Later

Today, we focus on Mindset and how creating an action plan can help us reduce our sense of overwhelm.


Whether it's creating your first time audit - the 168 hour tool that identifies how we spend each hour of our week - or some other project, breaking down any task into manageable steps makes it more likely that we accomplish the task (a) in the least painful way (b).


Sometimes, it's enough just to know what the next step is. Identifying the steps in advance makes this so much easier! There's no question about what's next ... and even if you have to pivot, you can easily create new steps if a wrench gets thrown into the mix (like the kids telling you "I need something for the bake sale, Mom" just 10 minutes before you leave the house (ProTip: Check those backpacks daily!).


We also discuss non-food rewards we can give ourselves. Please share with me your favorites ... I'm always looking for more suggestions to add to my list.
