As a working mom, it’s easy to get caught up in a whirlwind of commitments and obligations. From professional responsibilities to personal goals, we often find ourselves juggling an endless list of tasks.

In the midst of the chaos, it’s important to recognize the importance of pausing, reflecting, and reprioritizing. Sometimes in our careers we take a step back, while other times we take a huge leap forward. Similarly, as our children grow, we find ourselves in phases where we can lean into our career because of their independence and other times when they simply need more time and energy from us.

Through it all, though, remember why you started. What was your dream? The one that gets you energized and out of bed thinking about? Don't lose sight of your dream...even if you need to hit pause for a moment.

I am living proof that pause does not coincide with failure. A pause in life doesn't have to be goodbye or a pivot, it can simply be a holding place. 

Thank you, truly, for letting me be part of your working mom journey this past year. It's time for me to hit pause on an area of life, to focus on others. You have been the best community and I look forward to coming back on air to connect with you in the future.

Don't Quit Your Daydream.

In today's fast-paced, achievement-oriented society, working moms face a unique and often overwhelming set of challenges. Juggling careers, households, parenting, and personal ambitions requires an extraordinary level of dedication and resilience. Despite all of the concentrated efforts, many find it difficult to ask for help. This reluctance is often rooted in a complex interplay of societal expectations, internalized beliefs, and practical concerns.

The reality of asking for help is often vastly different from our internal fears and assumptions about how others will perceive us. This discrepancy can be understood through a phenomenon known as the "Spotlight Effect" and also relates to concepts like "Impostor Syndrome."

Working moms might feel that asking for help will expose them as inadequate or unfit for their roles, even if this is far from the truth. They might believe others will see them as failing to meet their responsibilities, while in reality, others might see them as strong for recognizing and addressing their needs.

Ready to grow past the difficulty of asking for help? Let's dive in!

You put boundaries in place to protect your time and priorities...but why does it seem like you're living in hustle culture, treading water and barely keeping up? Weren't those boundaries to keep us from getting to this pace of life in the first place?

If you're anything like me, you think you're coming at life from a strategic perspective where you're making decisions that are best for your time and family. But more often than not, we find small pockets of decisions that need to be made that can compromise the well intended parameters. Before we know it, we're living life in a dead-out sprint rather than a sustainable jog. 

We're frustrated, overwhelmed and feeling like the busyness is getting the better of us. 

If this sounds like you, know that you're in good company. We all start out with great intentions, but somewhere between decision and action...we can easily get diverted. If you're living life in the fast lane even though you've set your boundaries...this episode is for you.

Let's dive in!

In this episode, I share the three things I'm loving right now that help me better manage my time and energy...so that I can spend it in areas that I'd rather prioritize.

It's time to get real about your time. So often, we are upholding obligations and priorities of other people without much consideration to their impact on our own schedules. We carry the expectations of others or what we think we "should" be doing as working moms...and before we know it, we're spending time in areas we never would have chosen.

In today's episode, we're talking through how you can identify opportunities to shed others' priorities and expectations in order to get more time back in your day. I'll also be sharing one of my favorite methods that can help you analyze just where your time is being spent in order to dig into the "why".

If you're ready to take control of your schedule and own your time - this episode is for you!

Have you ever told yourself....

If I wear the right clothes, I'll be taken seriously?

Or

If I work a certain way, I'll finally get that promotion?

Or

If I do all the things as a mom, I'll be a great mom?

We tell ourselves a lot of stories, but rarely do we consider what we'd do if there were no expectations, pressures or judgement being placed on us. 

Who are you as a working mom outside of everyone else's expectations? It's an important question to ask...and one we're diving into on today's episode. Time to get real with who you are as a working mom and what you truly want.

Let's dive in!
