  • #9 Special Edition: The Not So Magical Truth About Childbirth
    On this special episode of The Good Life Momma, I wanted to share a personal story that I think every mom or expecting mom should hear. We put so much emphasis on the plan sometimes that we forget life has a way of creating it's own path. I apologize in advanced as this episode got more emotional for me than I thought it would, even after almost 2 years of healing but it's a story I think every woman should hear. What doesn't kill us will only make us stronger.

  • #7 Breast Cancer Awareness from a Mom and Survivor
    On episode 7 of The Good Life Momma, I had the privilege of interviewing my dear friend Brandy Reed who is not only a mom, wife, daughter and friend but a breast cancer survivor.

  • #6: The Comparison Trap
    In episode 6 of The Good Life Momma, we will talk about a girls worst enemy: herself! Our ability to compare ourselves to others is unmatched but so not needed. Most of that comparison is coming from a place of insecurity.
    You cannot compare your day one to someone else day 60. The moment we stop comparing ourselves to others and instead live our life with purpose, drive and authentic confidence.... THAT is when true happiness sets in.

  • #5: Stop Trying to Find Balance
    I am going to let you guys in on a little secret. It may shock some of those in the Good Life Momma community but I am totally pivoting my business and focusing on creation vs finding. Yes, I still believe that women can have it all: career, family, marriage, health, friends, etc... but why are we so focused on finding something like balance that frankly doesn't exist? On episode 5 of The Good Life Momma Podcast, creator and founder Brett Jansen will talk through her new frame of thought and how you can start being realistic with your time, expectations and knowing your worth. How can we create our best life if we don't know whats really broke besides the fact that we all need more time.
    If the one thing you need to focus on today is time, be sure to head over to thegoodlifemomma.com/tools to take my FREE course "four tools every mom should be using today."
    Stop making excuses for not living your best life, start creating that life, today.

  • #3: My Two Column Approach to Managing the Chaos
    In episode three of The Good Life Momma, we will walk through a practice approach to managing a day that just seems to overwhelming to concur. I call it the two column but it basically allows me to prioritize and forces me to ask for help when needed. As moms, our first fault is not asking for help enough. That mom guilt sinks in and we want to "do it all." Guess what? You can. However, you have to get out of the mindset that you can do it "all" on your own. If you are a single mom and/or lack a support system, work your butt off to build your support system which means a sitter.  If you have a support system, leverage that to find time for yourself and absolutely do not feel guilty about it.
    We can only manage so much in 24 hours. It's essential to our success that we map it out, talk it out, get rest, reset and make time for our souls to recharge.
