Beyond Busyness

In this episode of Beyond Busyness, I’m sharing why I made the switch from Trello to Asana and how it's simplified my business as I grow my team. If you’re a female entrepreneur managing multiple projects or starting to scale your business, this episode is for you! I discuss the key differences between Trello and Asana, the features that won me over, and how Asana has made my daily workflow more efficient. Plus, I offer tips for transitioning from Trello (or any platform) to Asana.

In today’s episode, I sit down with Krysti, a plus-size personal trainer and body confidence coach, to talk about her journey as a mom, business owner, and Beyond Busyness member. Krysti opens up about the pressures of juggling a business, motherhood, and self-care, and how she was stuck in the cycle of overwhelm before joining Beyond Busyness.

We dive deep into the challenges of being a mom in today’s world, shifting the narrative from weight loss to body confidence, and breaking free from the 'busy equals success' mindset. Krysti shares how the program helped her manage her time more effectively, balance her priorities, and find more freedom in her day-to-day life. If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly spinning your wheels trying to do it all, you won’t want to miss this episode!

In this episode of Beyond Busyness, we’re diving into the essential topic of making time for self-care while balancing the demands of running a business and caring for your family. As female entrepreneurs, it’s easy to put everyone else’s needs before our own, but neglecting self-care can lead to burnout and decreased productivity.

Join me as I share practical tips and strategies to integrate self-care into your daily routine, set clear boundaries between work and personal time, and even involve your family in your self-care practices. You’ll learn how to take small but powerful steps to ensure you’re caring for yourself without sacrificing your business or family time.

Whether you’re struggling to find time for yourself or just looking for new ways to enhance your self-care practices, this episode is packed with actionable advice to help you thrive in both your business and personal life.

There are less than 2 weeks left before my kiddos head back to school for 4th and 7th grade. I honestly cannot believe that in 2 short years, I'll have one in high school and the other in middle school.

But, I don't want to get too far ahead of myself because this school year hasn't even started yet.

And while I've enjoyed the last 81 days of not having to pack a lunch for my kids, I always look forward to a "fresh start" that the new school year brings.

The summer is a lot more relaxed in our household with all 4 of us home (since the husband is in the education world), which means I want to start thinking about our morning and afterschool routines to set our schoolyear up for success on a regular basis.

Because I know that without a solid routine in place (especially that morning routine for me), I'll start feeling overwhelmed and fall behind on everything that needs to get done around the house.

On today's episode, I'm sharing 3 steps I take when I am planning ANY new routine, but especially those daily routines that are so crucial for the success of our days. Plus, I take you behind the scenes on what my actual morning routine looks like.

I am so excited to finally get to introduce you to my friend, my mentor, and my fellow co-owner of Magnify Your Content, Rachel McMichael!

Here's the thing you need to know about Rachel... I didn't even know it was possible to work just 4-hours a day, 4 days per week until Rachel came along.

But, that's not how it was for me OR her when we started on our respective entrepreneurial journeys.

And because Rachel is a good friend of mine, I asked her some questions that made her get a little vulnerable with where she was just a few years ago, and how she's learned how to balance motherhood and being a successful multi-six-figure business owner.

If you loved this episode, be sure to follow Rachel on Instagram and give her podcast a listen (it's so so good)!

Does anyone else forget about their goals by the end of January? Or is that just me?!

Although I'm an Enneagram 9, I am also someone who LOVES to achieve some goals. Mostly just getting things crossed off my list every single day, but having some sort of outcome in mind helps motivate me to actually take action.

Because that's just it... your goals really aren't about your goals. They're about action.

And in today's episode, I'm sharing the 4 questions I ask myself about my goals to help me achieve them over and over and over again.

I am so excited to introduce you to my guest today, Jasmin Niemiec! Jasmin is a mom of 4 and an entrepreneur... but she's also the person who helped me start my entrepreneurial journey 8 years ago.

Through Jasmin's coaching, I was able to learn how to grow and scale my business so that I could quit my teaching job, but she also taught me a TON about time management.

Because as you know, raising a business + kids is not an easy task -- especially during the busy summer months.

I loved all Jasmin's tips and tricks for how she manages to be an amazing mom while growing her online business in this episode!

If you've been around my business for awhile, you already know that what I'm doing today (time management, planning, and content) is NOT where I started.

Actually, where I started is about the farthest thing away from those things.

Here's the thing about being an entrepreneur...

You probably have more than one thing you are passionate about, and that's OK. You probably have a million ideas running through your head right now. Some are great, and some need some more time to marinate.

But, knowing when to pivot can be tough at times.

In today's episode, I'm changing things up a bit -- or pivoting. Instead of interviewing my friend Rachel McMichael, she interviews me about where my entrepreneurial journey started, the many pivots I've made, as well as some of the mistakes I see many female entrepreneurs make that are costing them valuable time.

(And don't worry, I'll be interviewing Rachel a little later this summer too!)

I am so excited to introduce you to my friend Kristin Maahs in today's episode. Kristin is a course creation coach who helps coaches, consultants, and service providers increase their income and impact while also getting their time back by becoming an effective course creator.

And just like having the same name, we also have very similar backgrounds to how we started our entrepreneurship journey. We dive deep into the struggles we both have faced as entrepreneurs and how Kristin has found ways to fight through them and make being a business owner AND a mom work for her!

This is an especially helpful episode as we head into the summer months when the kids are home and how to balance it all.

The summer is approaching, which means I will be spending almost all of my free time at the pool or on vacation with the family in Florida or Branson.

And because that also means a lot of time sitting in a chair, I love to get a list of books together so that I'm not just twiddling my thumbs.

On this episode, I'm sharing my favorite personal development books, as well as my top 3 five-star reads that I'm still thinking about to this day.

But, I'd love for you to email me or DM me over on Instagram and give me so of your favorite books to add to my TBR list this summer too!
