What Fresh Hell: Laughing in the Face of Motherhood | Parenting Tips From Funny Moms

How to Feel Less Starved for Time


Listen Later

As moms, it feels like we're always crunched for time without a moment to ourselves in a given day. And that really takes its toll on our mental health. Here are some tips for getting more "time affluence" in your day—and no, it's not about being more productive! Time affluence is about structuring your to-do list so it feels more manageable and working time for yourself into the fabric of your day-to-day so that you're not going months without any me-time.

Margaret and Amy discuss:

  • The difference between "time famine" and "time poverty"
  • Why modern conveniences haven't given us more leisure time
  • What studies show about the relationship between time affluence and happiness

  • Here are links to some of the resources mentioned in the episode:

    • Wikipedia: Time Affluence
    • Ross Bruch for Brown, Brothers, & Harriman Law Firm blog: The Value of Time: Understanding and Maximizing Time Affluence
    • Barnaby Lashbrooke for Forbes: This is the Key to Achieving Time Affluence
    • Jermaine Archer's TEDTalk: "A Matter of Time"
