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.

The Silent Struggle: Why Working Moms Hesitate to Ask for Help
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!

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!

One of the most common sources of guilt for working moms is missing our children's activities due to work commitments.
I have missed games and practices...and soon to be a band concert. I'm not a perfect mom by any means, but these moments don't make me a bad one. And they don't make you a terrible mother either!
In today's episode, we'll delve into the roots of this guilt, offer a more realistic perspective, and explore the positive aspects of these situations along with strategies to overcome the accompanying guilt.

With so many projects, activities and events on our calendars...it's hard to find time for ourselves. In today's episode, I'm diving into the number one thing you need in order to create a highly effective routine. But I'll warn you...it's not what you think.
I'm a firm believer that progress is better than perfection, and living in the grey is better than black and white thinking. It's why I believe in blending over balancing.
One great way to do that, is to approach our schedules and routines with moderation. More specifically, to approach it from an 80/20 lens.
Curious how that can set you up for success? Wonder no longer! Hit play and let's dig into this theory, and its application to working moms, now!

Today's episode is focused on HOW to get more time for yourself. Motivation is the spark that gets us going, habits keep us consistent and moving forward...but then life throws curveballs at us and everything seems to fall apart.
At the end of the day, discipline is what makes sure we uphold our promise to ourselves for self-care. So, one could make the argument that discipline = self-care. And, in fact, on today's show...I do make that argument!
Regardless of how you define self-care, if you're not disciplined to follow through, your promise to yourself will fall through and your priorities will once again get out of order.
Join me on this journey as we discuss the importance of discipline in our approach to self-care.

Work Life Balance. We've all heard the term, and many of us are on the search for it. We actively seek out jobs and routines that help us find more balance in our lives between work and family.
But there's a drawback to the concept of work life balance, and that is how quickly it leads us to compartmentalizing and black and white thinking.
Work life balance is subjective and difficult to quantify, making it that much harder to achieve. What's more, even when we do get to this equilibrium, the teeter totter doesn't stay steady for long. When we get out of balance, we can often feel like failures. Again...black and white thinking.
In today's episode, I explain a new concept: Work Life Blend. A more complete and attainable approach to juggling the duality of work and motherhood. One that removes the black and white thinking and sets up working moms for success.
Ready to finally get more out of your life and embrace Work Life BLEND? If you're ready to create the work life blend you've always dreamed of, I'm here for you! Grab time on my calendar for coaching here.
