Are you a mom that knows you are made for more than what you are currently doing? Or maybe you already took a risk and made a major shift in your life and don’t want to admit that it isn’t right, not working and don’t want to feel like a failure.

Changing directions and pivoting can be scary, especially if you’ve done it before and it hasn’t turned out like you hoped it would. How do you know when is the right time to make a major shift?

In this episode Becca Feauto shares what it’s like to make a shift in her career, only to realize that it wasn’t right and it was time for another pivot. We have a wonderful conversation about how to try something, see how it fits and not to be afraid if it isn’t right to dare to try on something else. As moms we can help others by being our most genuine self which includes our struggles so that we can share the strategies that helped with others. Becca shares her own helpful strategies as she’s currently going through a major pivot.

This unplanned MOMmentum mini episode occurred because things weren’t going according to plan. It was a great reminder to talk about a topic that us moms face when we try to do things to better ourselves and take action toward something you want to accomplish – roadblocks and resistance ahead!

We know that we need to do some hard things to reach our goals and for personal growth and tend to focus on the end result of that hard work. Something we overlook as a part of the process is to expect and plan for what to do when we encounter resistance. In this episode I’ll share how we can overcome resistance and choose resilience to use as fuel to keep going and accomplish goals.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

• How to plan for resistance and what to do when it happens
• Mistakes we make when we hit resistance and what to do instead
• How to use overcoming resistance and use resilience as fuel and momentum
• Mantra – I choose resilience over resistance
