92: The Myth of Work Life Balance with Whitnee Hawthorne


Listen Later

Work-life balance sounds good in theory but for working moms, it often feels impossible. In this episode, I sit down with Whitnee Hawthorne, author, speaker, and founder of The Savvy Working Mom, to break down the myths that keep us stuck in burnout.


We talk about why delegation is so hard, how perfectionism shows up in motherhood, and the emotional weight we carry when we try to do it all. Whitnee shares her “Shine, Manage, Surrender” mindset and 7 D’s of Delegation, real tools to help you protect your energy and stop doing everything alone.


If you’re stretched thin and constantly stuck in over-functioning mode, I also teach tools to break the perfectionism-worry cycle through my workshop series at carinocounseling.com/worry-workshop.
