June 15, 2021[143] A 5 Step Plan to Clear Your Plate and Get More Done with Whitnee Lynn Hawthorne
Send me a text
Raise your hand if you could do better with delegating at home?

I'm raising my hand too. Many times I feel like that I can get it all done. But the truth is we need the help and support of those around us.

I talked to my fellow podcasting friend all about delegating to learn what things I should delegating and why I struggle with delegating.

Through our conversation, you will learn that there are two things that hold us moms back from delegating. Then Whitnee debunks these myths and explains why we need to delegate, especially at home.

Then Whitnee shares her 5 step plan to help you delegate so that you can get more things checked off of your to-do list without having to do it all by yourself.

Hot flashes are something that no one really looks forward to.

But the truth is, transitioning into menopause doesn't have to include hot flashes or any of the other symptoms you may have overheard other women talking about.

Then I met Tania and she shared that the transition to menopause can be smooth and easy.

In this episode Tania shares:
What is menopause and perimenopause
The common symptoms of menopause and perimenopause
How gut health plays a role in perimenopause and menopause
Her 7 hacks for transitioning into menopause smoothly

Send me a text
When you hear the word self-care do you roll your eyes?
For a while, I was the same way because the images that I saw about self-care looked like spa days and luxurious bubble baths.

And in today's episode, we talk about:
How Shana and Tracy got started with a Pump and Dump Show
A few things that they learned from getting the show started.
The importance of asking for help.
The importance of self-care and why they prefer the term self-preservation instead.
Letting go a mom guilt
Some really funny things that they find in motherhood that you can laugh at and not take yourself so seriously
Check out this full episode to learn more about self-preservation and get a few laughs in.
