This week my kids were home on spring break, and I was forced to really embody so much of what I teach. I started a very intense and powerful coaching program at @elementumcoachinginstitute and the first day was coincidently the first day of their vacation. In perfect timing, I was reminded of a powerful question I get to ask in my own life. I share this question on the episode as it relates to me trying to manage attending to my business and own passions, while also attending to being present with my kids. 

Our kids are amazing mirrors to what is in our heart and what our heart so desperately needs in every moment or season. Our only job is to tune in, and instead of focusing on what they are taking from you ask yourself what the message is they are trying to give you.

If we are connected over on Instagram yet, come find me @bridgetcovill because I will be sharing so much more valuable information than you get here just in this space, especially over the course of my program.

On March 16th, 2019, I made a decision that completely transformed my life. I chose to live a sober life, and it was the best and most difficult decision I have ever made.  Although my journey hasn't been perfect, it has been one that is worth celebrating. Today, I am sharing my story here with an honest and vulnerable look at why I chose sobriety and how I maintain it today.

Take a listen and notice as I talk how many times my mind kept me from becoming who I was meant to be. Our minds can be our most empowering tool and our biggest source of self-sabotage if we do not have awareness. 

If you know someone who is struggling with alcohol, please send them this episode so they know they are not alone. I want to invite anyone who is curious or just wants to live a more mindful life then come find me on instagram @bridgetcovill and say hi! You can also always email me [email protected] or schedule a free breakthrough call if you want to discover what it is that you want and what is really stopping you! You can schedule that here. 

My sobriety journey looks different than you might think, and I want more moms to have permission to choose this lifestyle without all the labels and stigma that can come with living sober. Enjoy the episode and make sure to subscribe, rate, or leave a review!

As moms, the last thing we want in this world is for our babies to experience pain or struggle, right? It is so easy to fall into the trap of thinking that we can somehow control their experience if we just do or say all the right things as their mom. This might look like signing them up for all the activities, so they have opportunities for robust future, making sure they are getting perfect grades, eating all organic and non- processed foods, limiting their screen time, or pushing them to be the best version of themselves.

None of these actions are wrong. In fact, experts in the field of parenting would argue these are all right. My point is that it is not about what is right or wrong. It is about your relationship with your child, and sometimes this means tuning out the experts and tuning into what is really at the heart of the need to control. There is a line that can be crossed if we aren't careful. When our need and desire to control comes at the expense of connecting with them, this is simply a reminder and an invitation to us to let go and surrender in some areas. 

Our role as their mom is not to control their experience; it is simply to be a part of it.
     1.) Because first of all this is not even possible. Even if we said and did all the right things, our child may still have a terrible experience. 
    2.) And also, it frees us from all the added pressure to be a perfect mom and raise a perfect child. 

When we follow 3 simple steps to overcome our desire to control our kids, we are left with simply getting to love and enjoy them!

As always, I am so honored to share this space with you, and I look forward to connecting furthur

Meditation is one of many tools that can help you live more awake, more conscious, more present, and more intentional. My personal journey of meditation is so relatable especially as a busy mom. I don't have 30-45 minutes to sit in silence, and I am by nature not somebody that likes to sit still.  If I can practice meditation, so can you. 

I want to define meditation and look specifically at the most common reasons people resist trying this practice. I am not an expert guru on meditation, but I am a mom who lives a busy life and wanted to learn how to slow down and be in control of my thoughts and my emotions. Meditation has helped me to do just that AND so much more.

If you are a mom who struggles to get out of your head or are constantly over analyzing everything and everyone around you. Maybe you feel rushed and overwhelmed most of the time. Then meditation might be a simple and free practice you can start incorporating into your day, and watch your life transform by learning to be present for the small moments. 

If you have not done so already, grab my free guide "Make More Time for Mom", and learn how to actually create the time to practice tools like meditation or really whatever you have a desire to do.

I also am hosting a free masterclass with my friend Katie Austin, a social worker and mindfulness parenting expert. We are going to show you how to not just incorporate meditation into your busy life but give you practical tools to use during the day to embody mindfulness; to live more aware and more present. Register here and join us this Thursday, March 3rd at 8:30 pm EST.

Emotions are a part of this life no matter how far you are in your self growth journey. Emotions actually are the very thing that guides you along this journey. I used to hate my emotions, and as someone who feels things deeply this hate ran deep. Most of my life the only tools I had to cope with my emotions were destructive to me and to those around me. When I chose sobriety, I also had to learn how to move through emotions in a healthy way because they weren't going anywhere.

Emotions are one of my favorite topics to teach because of my own personal journey learning about them. Emotions really are this amazing feedback we get to experience as human beings. So in today's episode, I am breaking down some myths about emotions, and giving you three new ways to understand why emotions show up and how to understand them better.

If you are walking through an experience that is bringing up a lot of emotions, I want to offer you something. First of all, congratulations you are being called forward in your growth. Our emotions really are showing up for us if we can lean into them and apply these tools.. Secondly, if you want support and want to learn how to apply these tools to your own personal experience, book a FREE breakthrough call with me by clicking this link here. Together we will learn what is really behind your emotions and what you truly need in this moment to feel better.

 Today's episode was so fun to record, and I am so excited to bring on my first guest. My husband, Paul, joined me for a very candid conversation about navigating sobriety and self-growth both individually and as a couple. In 2019, I chose sobriety for my life, and the ripple effects were so profound, but most importantly in my marriage. I loved going back down memory lane about how far we have come and how much has improved in the way we connect and communicate. As my husband said in this episode, "we all have our stuff", and this is a story of ours!

Enjoy! I want to remind everyone to please subscribe, rate, or leave a review if you feel called to do so. It helps me to know which episodes are really resonating so I know how to best show up and serve. And if you know someone who is on their own sober or really any self-growth journey, and they are struggling to navigate it with their spouse will you share this? Will you send them this episode as a gift and a reminder that life is better when it is shared, no matter how hard your season of life is!

We all want balance. Whether you are a mom and you work from home, outside the home, or are a stay- at- home mom; I know you crave a more balanced life. Balance is what creates calm and a sense of control. However, I believe the meaning of balance is misunderstood. Balance does not mean that we master giving 100% of our-self to our work, relationships, health, and home. It means that we acknowledge that balance is actually an illusion. Balance is a feeling that is created by knowing that life is unbalanced AND that's OK!

I want to give you THREE ways you can cultivate more balance in your life as a busy, multitasking mamma. I also am creating a free guide to help MAKE MORE TIME FOR MOMS. So, if you want more balance and/or time in your life, click the link below to stay connected.

We have all become experts this last year in managing life when plans change.  I hesitate to even make plans these days, because of the anxiety I feel knowing my pending plans will most likely change. I want to empower you to not just manage the actual details of the change, but actually control your experience of the change. Plans changing, due to sickness, weather, power outages, etc. really only cause as much overwhelm and stress as you THINK it does. Our thoughts can sustain us or derail us during a change in plans. I am going to show you how to get out of the 'shoulda, coulda, woulda' stories. 

I believe there are some really important steps to practice when our plans change, and the first two might surprise you. And I know, just because of the state of the world, we all will get lots of practice.  Grab a notepad to take some notes, and let's dive in to 4 steps on how to Manage your experience when plans change with more control and compassion for yourself and others.

Yes, plans changing can be a challenge, but it does not have to change YOU and who you are being in the present moment.

If you are walking through change in your life, big or small, sometimes it can feel like everything is stacked against you. I love walking beside moms and helping them navigate moments or seasons of change. If you want support and guidance along your journey, click the link below and set up a FREE discovery call today. Let's discover what it is that you actually want to be experiencing, and what has been stopping you. Whether we decide to work together or not, I guarantee you will walk away from the call with at least one action step you can start applying to your life right now!
