After co-creating a podcast dedicated to finding the perfect hobby for busy mom life, Erin finally discovered exactly what she needed and embraced a simpler, more sustainable approach to hobbies. In this episode, she shares how focusing on just a few core activities — audiobooks, exercise, 10-minute walks and yoga, and the podcast itself — helped her let go of the pressure to "do it all." Erin opens up about how these small but meaningful shifts created more joy, balance, and energy in her daily life, offering encouragement for any busy mom looking to find peace through hobbies that truly fit — while still leaving space to explore new hobbies when the time is right.

In this episode, Erin shares how small, 10-minute hobbies like walking and yoga helped her reclaim her lunch break, slow down during the workday, and sneak more self-care into a busy schedule. If you’ve ever said, “I don’t have time for hobbies,” this episode is for you.
