Every summer, it creeps back in… That subtle (or sometimes loud) voice whispering:

You’re not doing enough. "You’re not doing it right."

Sound familiar?

In this episode, we’re talking all about mom guilt—that heavy, conflicting pressure we carry around about everything from how clean the house is, to whether our kids read enough, or have too little responsibility.

It’s time to ditch the guilt and choose something much better: Confidence.

Tell me if you can relate to this: You genuinely want to get things done. You promise yourself you’re going to do them. But - somehow - time gets away from you, and you haven’t ever actually done the things. 

We’re talking about procrastination, and it happens to all of us. But today on the podcast we will learn from therapist Risa Williams about what is really happening when we procrastinate. And while procrastination affects everyone at times, we will talk specifically about how it can be especially challenging for those with ADHD. 

There is something for everyone in this episode, so settle in for some actionable and practical tips that can genuinely change the way you manage your day-to-day tasks.

Have you ever spent so much time organizing something until it’s just right—and then realized you’re not actually using it? Or it’s not really helping you?

Want to know why this happens?

Because we all have a picture in our heads of what being organized should look like, and we run after it before thinking it through.

This is called over-organizing, and our time is too precious for it.

This episode is all about recognizing what over-organizing looks like and learning how to keep it from sneaking up on us so we stop wasting time, money, and energy on things that don’t end up being worth it.
