Experience Motherhood

Have you ever desired to get into the practice of journaling but felt like you had no time? In this week’s episode, my special guest, Allie Mirosevic shares her motherhood story and how it inspired her to start a journaling business, Bliss'd, which is a self-care company that helps moms live more joyful, fulfilling and connected lives through journaling. In this episode, we talk about the benefits of journaling, how to encourage your kids to journal and how to find those pockets of time to practice journaling.

This episode is an ode to the resilience found in the pages of a journal, and Allie's story exemplifies the profound influence it can have on mental health and personal clarity. We unravel how she harnessed journaling to carve out her own path and develop a tailored routine that balances unbridled self-expression with insightful prompts. Allie's insights remind us that motherhood needn't be an obstacle to personal growth but can act as a catalyst for rediscovery and passion. Beyond personal anecdotes, Allie shares how a simple practice like a family gratitude journal can enhance bonding and instill lifelong values in children, proving that the pen can be a mighty tool for familial harmony.

As a mom and entrepreneur, I've danced the delicate waltz between nurturing my children and nurturing my business. It's a dance as complex as it is rewarding, and in our latest episode, I'm thrilled to have Brooke Jefferson share her insight. Brooke is an Oklahoma Family photographer, business coach for photographers, and host of the Book More Clients Podcast. She is a wife, mom to two, and believer based in a small town in Oklahoma. This former teacher turned photographer is on a mission to show mamas that it is possible to build a thriving business from home. We swap tales and trade secrets on everything from carving out time for self-care to redefining success in a way that resonates with our personal and professional lives.

Ever pondered if the 'super mom' cape is just a myth? We tackle this head-on, dissecting the struggles and solutions that arise when running a business with a family in tow. From the nuances of marketing and sales in our tech-savvy, post-pandemic era to the psychological tug-of-war between work and home life, we lay bare the art of balance. You'll find solidarity and strategies here, especially if you've felt the sting of mom guilt or the weight of self-imposed limitations.

To round out our heart-to-heart, we dive into the soulful side of entrepreneurship, where faith and values paint the backdrop of our decision-making. Whether you're seeking a fresh perspective on time management or curious about how spirituality can anchor you through choppy waters, this episode is a mosaic of insights. As we part ways, Brooke and I extend an invitation to join our circle and engage with a community of listeners who understand that the journey of a mom in business is as vibrant as it is varied.

Ever feel like motherhood is an unforgiving juggling act? You're not alone. That's why I've invited Ashley Blackington, an occupational therapist turned CEO of Dovetail Designs, to share her game-changing strategies for transforming the chaos of family life into a harmonious symphony. She created the Dovetail® framework by combining her 12+ years of clinical experience, research, and the lived experience of trying to, collaboratively, run a busy home with her husband. Our discussion uncovers the magic of making the 'invisible' workload visible, redistributing tasks, and establishing a thriving environment of shared parenting responsibilities.

As we peel back the layers of home management, we uncover the essential role of visual systems and effective communication in achieving balance. Ashley's planner isn't just a schedule—it's a revolution, integrating self-care and reflection into the fabric of family organization. We delve into how these tailored tools can liberate mental space and promote individual and collective well-being.

If you've ever found yourself longing for a moment of peace amidst the whirlwind of parenting, this episode is your blueprint for crafting a space where personal growth and family planning coexist.

Wrap up the episode by stepping into a future where gender roles in parenting are relics of the past. We share candid reflections on the power of trust in your partner's parenting prowess and how to inspire children of any gender to contribute to household tasks. This conversation goes beyond planners and systems; it's a call to action for incremental change, patience, and the joyous rewards of shared control. Join us on this transformative journey—your ticket to a more organized, collaborative, and joyful path in the wild adventure of raising a family.
