Are you constantly beating yourself up for not being able to do as much as you believe you should?

You might be confusing capability with capacity, and this common mistake is causing unnecessary stress, guilt, and even burnout for busy moms everywhere.

In this eye-opening episode, I explain the crucial difference between what you're CAPABLE of doing versus what you have the CAPACITY to do right now, and why understanding this distinction is transformative for your mental health and productivity.


BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL DISCOVER:

  • The key differences between capability (what you CAN do) and capacity (what you have bandwidth to do RIGHT NOW)
  • How your capacity naturally fluctuates throughout different seasons of motherhood, monthly cycles, and life changes
  • Two simple questions to determine whether you're facing a capability problem or a capacity problem
  • Why equating your self-worth with your productivity is destructive to your well-being
  • Practical strategies to solve both capability and capacity problems without burning yourself out


HOMEWORK:

Journal your thoughts surrounding your current capacity. Do you feel able to do what you want to do in this season of life? Why or why not? If not, what are you making that mean about yourself?


COMING UP NEXT:

In the next episode, you’ll learn how not to let fluctuations in your capacity keep you from making your dreams a reality.
