It's not a vacation, it's "taking the show on the road". There's so much that goes into preparing for and actually executing on travel once you have kids. And particularly for working moms, who are navigating work responsibilities up to and even sometimes throughout travel, it's a lot. In this episode, I'm offering practical tips to help make travel a little less stressful and a little more enjoyable, including ways that you can share the mental load of everything that goes into making a trip a reality. And yes, a lot of it does come down to your expectations, but we're talking about that too! Listen in if you've got travel plans on the horizon or if you're thinking about taking more trips with your kids this year. It's possible to shift your perspective and welcome the ups and downs of "doing life in a new place".

So many books and articles have been written about what successful people do to start their day. If we're not waking up early to workout, meditate, and get a jump start on our day, what are even doing? But as busy, working parents, with interrupted sleep and irregular wake-up times, it can be so hard to be consistent with morning routines, let alone to find time to drink a cup of coffee in peace. In this episode, I'm challenging the idea of a morning routine and offering up a new approach to mornings as a busy, working parent. An approach that takes into consideration the responsibilities and lack of sleep that parents, especially parents of young kids, are facing. You don't have to give up the idea entirely, but you I would encourage you to embrace some flexibility and reduce the pressure to do it all. You can still have a successful morning, it just might look a little different than the ones we read about.

We all know what decision fatigue is and how we should create routines, habits, and even uniforms to reduce the number of decisions we have to make. But the other piece of decision fatigue that's not talked about as much is indecision - delaying or prolonging a decision because we tell ourselves we need more time or more information. Every unmade decision is like an open loop in your brain costing you time and energy just like a nail in your tire that is slowly leaking air while you drive. The faster you can make your decision, the less air you'll leak. Learning how to recognize indecision and having strategies to help you make faster, more confident decisions will help save you so much time, energy, and mental space. But the key is knowing which decisions to make quickly, and which decisions to take your time with. In this episode, you'll learn it all, including my five favorite hacks for getting over the indecision hump. Key Takeaways: 00:00 Stress Less This Holiday workshop announcement 01:27 Dealing with decision fatigue 04:16 What is indecision and what does it cost you? 05:38 Recognizing how indecisiveness shows up 13:24 Strategies for making faster, more confident decisions 18:33 The key step to strong decision-making 19:27 Choosing your decisions and your strategy 20:18 Getting support with the big decisions in your life Resources + Links: Get your ticket to Stress Less This Holiday workshop Send me a DM on Instagram Episode #10: Say Goodbye to Last-Minute Dinner Stress Apply to work with me

If you want a more relaxed, enjoyable holiday season, it's time to start planning now. I'm excited to bring back my Stress Less This Holiday workshop on November 7, 2024. Regardless of what you celebrate, there are so many activities, events, and things to do those last two months of the year. If you set aside 90 minutes now to think through your calendar, your tasks, and your decisions, you'll save yourself hours of time, energy, and stress later on. I want you to not only have a plan and a list, but to also know what your priorities are for this season. What's important to you? What memories do you want to make? How do you want to feel? You can have the best plan and the most beautiful calendar, but if you don't know why you're doing any of it, you'll end up feeling dissatisfied and exhausted. I want you to end the year feeling at peace and like you still have the energy to reflect on this beautiful life you're creating! Get your ticket today at www.themothernurture.com/holidays.

If you're feeling like you're repeating the same day over and over again, stuck on a hamster wheel of working, completing chores, and taking care of kids, one of the easiest and fastest ways to break up that cycle is to celebrate the small wins.

You know those life admin tasks that are a step beyond basics like grocery shopping, paying bills, and taking out the trash? The things that you'd like to be doing more regularly, but when life gets busy they fall to the backburner. Things like checking in on your finances or reviewing your budget, sorting kid artwork, cleaning out your inbox, managing photos on your phone, or adding notes to a keepsake journal or memory book for your kids. All things that aren't necessary for daily life to run, but things that make you feel like you really have it together. I like to call these tasks "next-level adulting". In this episode, I walk you through a monthly wrap-up process that I've been using for the last 5 months as a way to make sure I'm not forgetting about these "next-level" tasks. This wrap-up has also become a fun ritual that helps me review all the progress I've made and also appreciate life and the passage of time. I'm sharing exactly what's on my month-end checklist and tips for how you can create your own.

By breaking down your big goals into smaller, manageable steps, you'll be amazed at how much progress you can make even with a busy schedule. I'm sharing real-life examples of what this looks like in action so you can apply it to your own big goals.

Do you ever feel like your brain is about to explode from holding onto too much? All those reminders, dates, errands, messages you need to send, and things you need to order run like a ticker in the background of your mind. Well, before you can even think about how and when you're going to get all those things done, you need to ease the overwhelm and create some mental space. And the easiest way to do that is so simple that most people skip over it in favor of more complicated processes. It's a to-do list. In this episode, I explain why the first exercise I do with all my coaching clients is an audit of their to-do list. When you're feeling overwhelmed by your mental load, the best thing you can do is get everything out of your head and onto a list so you can make sense of it and make a plan. I walk you through how to get started today, even if it's just by grabbing a piece of paper. I also share some of my favorite to-do list tools and how to choose the one that's right for you. Pop in those earbuds and get ready to lessen your mental load.
