If you’ve ever looked around and thought, “I’m failing at work, I’m failing at home, and I have no idea how to fix it,” you are so not alone. In this episode, I’m sitting down with the amazing Kim Patten—a mom of two, project manager at an S&P 500 company, and author of Pivot. She’s walked the hard road of transitioning from career life to stay-at-home mom and back again, and today she’s opening up about what really helped her let go of guilt and find balance.
We’re talking through how to create simple routines, manage your time without the overwhelm, and let go of perfection so you can show up for the life you actually want to live. Her “Power of 3” time management strategy is gold—you’ll want to grab a notebook for this one.
