Welcome to this episode of the Empowered Working Mom Revolution, where we explore the fascinating world of sketchnoting – a visual thinking tool that can revolutionize the way you learn, grow, and heal. In today's conversation, we dive deep into how Alisha, our special guest, discovered the incredible benefits of sketchnoting and how it has transformed her life.

Sketchnoting is not just about doodling; it's a powerful method to slow down and truly notice your experiences and learning. Alisha shares how she reframed doodling, which often carries a negative connotation, into sketchnoting, a practice that empowers her to process information more effectively.

One of the most significant takeaways from this episode is how sketchnoting helps you create a deeper understanding of the information you encounter. By engaging with the material on a visual level, you unlock new perspectives and insights that traditional note-taking might miss.

Alisha reminds us that we're all beginners in various aspects of life, and that's perfectly okay. Embracing a lens of curiosity and wonder as a beginner allows for incredible growth and exploration in any season of life.

Through sketchnoting, you'll find yourself slowing down, which is a powerful way to truly absorb and appreciate what you're experiencing and learning. This simple act of pausing and visually capturing your thoughts can be incredibly transformative, supporting not only your learning but also your healing and personal growth journey.

If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the unknowns, remember that you're not alone. Alisha's story emphasizes that we all have a support system in place, even when we can't see it. By sketchnoting, you tap into that inner well of support and strength.

Are you ready to engage with sketchnoting and unlock its potential in your life? Don't worry if you've never tried it before; everyone starts as a beginner. The key is to approach it with an open mind and embrace the slowness – it's a path to self-discovery like no other.

In this episode, you'll discover practical tips on how to start sketchnoting, whether you're a seasoned artist or a complete novice. You'll also explore coaching questions to help you reflect on the episode's insights and discover how to incorporate sketchnoting into your daily life.

Join us as we embark on a journey of visual thinking, growth, and transformation. Tune in now and unlock the power of sketchnoting to enrich your learning, spark creativity, and deepen your connection with yourself and the world around you.

After 13 years in public education, serving roles such as classroom teacher, district STEM coach, and professional development trainer, she decided to take a sabbatical to re-align her lifestyle with her core values of faith, health, and service.

You can find her at energizingeducators.com or on social media where she shares about teacher wellness and infusing more joy, creativity, and visual thinking in and out of the classroom.

If you're interested in learning more about visual thinking and bringing more creativity and joy into learning, check out Alisha's newest online workshop: "How to Sketchnote to Improve Memory and Communication!"

In this self-paced, video-based workshop, you'll learn about how to address creative blockers and limiting beliefs, how to filter information to focus on what's most essential, and build the skills needed to turn words into visual icons and metaphors to make learning stick!

Whether you're an avid artist or a self-proclaimed "non-drawer", this workshop is for you as we focus on "ideas, not art." You can find this workshop (and many more) at GrassrootsWorkshops.com.

Welcome to the Empowered Working Mom Revolution Podcast, where we're on a mission to help incredible working moms like you find that ideal work-life balance. I'm Jocelyn Auyeung, your host and certified life coach, here to guide you on a journey to a life filled with joy, fun, and fulfillment.

In today's episode, we're diving into the second part of our series on cutting out work stress tips for working moms. If you missed Part 1, be sure to check it out. We'll explore three personalized tips for responding to work stress because there's no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to handling stress.

But before we dive in, remember the power of pause. Taking a moment to pause allows you to break free from the cycle of reactive behavior and regain control. It's a simple yet powerful tool you can use universally in any situation.

Now, let's get into the tips.

Tip #1: Move that physical feeling of stress through and out of your body. When stress lingers in your body, it can lead to burnout and physical symptoms. Ask yourself, "How can I release this physical stress?" Some options include working out, taking a long shower, journaling, or talking to a trusted friend. Experiment and find what works best for you.

Tip #2: Clear your mind for clarity. When stressed, our minds can become cluttered with overwhelming thoughts. Instead of resisting or forcing them away, try challenging and reframing your thoughts. Ask, "How true is this thought?" Another approach is to allow your thoughts to pass through like clouds in the sky. Remember, it's about observing without judgment.

Tip #3: Prioritize what's truly important. After moving the stress out of your body and clearing your mind, you can think clearly. Now, ask yourself: What's genuinely important in this moment? Consider completion levels, control, and practice self-compassion for any unfinished tasks.

To put these tips into action, ask yourself: What does it look like to practice these tips in my daily life? Which tip resonates with me the most, and how can I experiment with it?

And here's your special invitation: If you're a working mom seeking personalized guidance on managing work stress, book a free 30-minute coaching conversation with me.

Welcome to the Empowered Working Mom Revolution podcast, where we're on a mission to help incredible working moms like you find balance, joy, and fulfillment in your lives. I'm your host, Jocelyn Auyeung, a certified Life Coach for working moms. In this episode, we're diving into the topic of work stress, something that's all too familiar for many of us.

I recently fell ill with COVID-19, and the stress of juggling work and health was real. But it made me realize that it's possible to cut out work stress from our lives. So, today, I'm sharing two actionable tips with you.

First, start by identifying how stress manifests in your body and mind. Building awareness around this is crucial because it empowers you to choose your response to stress. Does it show up as physical tension, like headaches or tightness in your chest? Or is it a barrage of anxious thoughts?

The second tip is recognizing your natural habits when stress hits. Do you tend to overwork, like I do, or you distract yourself with Netflix or online shopping? Once you're aware of these habits, you can decide if they truly help you deal with stress or if it's time to develop new, healthier ones.

Now, here's your call to action: Put these tips into practice. Begin by acknowledging how stress affects your body and mind, and notice your habitual reactions. Then, introduce a pause when you feel stressed and ask yourself if your response is empowering or reactive. You have the power to make a change.

If you're a working mom seeking guidance on eliminating work stress, I invite you to connect with me. Visit www.empoweredworkingmomrevolution.com/coaching to book a free 30-minute conversation with me.

Do you identify as a woman of color (WOC)? What does advocating for yourself as a woman of color look like? In today's episode, Shobna and I dive into her journey of learning how to advocate for herself, which has helped her make several shifts in her life. We also dive into what it means to advocate for yourself as a WOC and how to unravel the societal, cultural, and gender narratives that limit us as WOC.

I hope that Shobna's story and our conversation empower you to identify what it means to advocate for yourself as a woman of color in any aspect of your life.
