So, 2020 has been a crazy year, right? Where do I even begin? A whole lot has shifted in my life and in my business over the last year, which is something I imagine a lot of you have been experiencing as well. So, I just wanted to take this end-of-year opportunity to check in with you and share a little about what’s been going on in my life and business, and how my family and I have been navigating life in quarantine. And I also have a pretty big announcement about the show and our future here at the Working Parent Resource Podcast at the end of this episode too.
In the introduction of my book, I write about how all of the changes we’re experiencing with this coronavirus is presenting us with an opportunity to slow down and take stock of where we are in every area of our lives. I know we’re all feeling it right now. I know times are incredibly tough, and for some families this time is shattering literally everything you thought you could rely on in life. It has broken you down to your core. But the longer this virus controls our lives, the more I believe this is the whole point. The world has shifted. I think every system, every structure, every norm we’ve taken for granted for thousands of years, all of the patterns of the past, it’s all being destroyed so we can re-build something better, something that’s more appropriate for the times we’re actually living in now. It’s time for us to start fresh, to integrate so many lessons we’ve learned as a species. We can do better, and this is our chance to create a new life for ourselves, and as a society. As hard as it is to believe, I really don’t think we’ll be going back to the way things were prior to 2020. And I for one believe this is a gift. There are so many things about our prior lives that simply didn’t work for a lot of people, in all aspects of life. Please take this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get rid of ANYTHING, and I mean ANYTHING, that is no longer serving you. Focus on what brings you joy and deep meaning and fulfillment. Take care of your health and your relationships. Do what you need to do for you, and don’t feel guilty about it. I know this is much easier said than done, and I also know that many of us, including me, are in a much more privileged position situation than others are. Do what you need to do to survive first, but as soon as you manage to come up for air, take a deep breath and start exploring how you can create a life you no longer need to just survive. Start creating a life you truly love.

Today we’re chatting with Amy McKeown, who is an award-winning health, mental health and wellbeing consultant. She coaches organizations of all sizes to build strategies with are both innovative and measurable, whilst providing unique expertise in implementing said strategies. Amy is also a respected thought-leader within her field, sharing her advice regularly on LinkedIn and at speaker events such as Mad World. Amy is also passionate about women's health and is actively campaigning to change the Equality Act 2010 to provide protection for families experiencing miscarriage or pregnancy loss.
As I release this episode, we’re heading into what experts are calling the darkest time of the coronavirus pandemic. Here in the United States and around the world, people of all ages are getting diagnosed, hospitalized, and are dying at unprecedented rates. Families have lost their routines, their childcare, their livelihoods, they’ve lost family members, and their very sense of sanity. Businesses around the world have wondered how they can support their employees, whether those employees work at home or are essential workers who need to be on site. Working parents and others struggle every day to figure out how to help their kids with school and get their work done while managing the other necessary aspects of life. And that’s just if they’ve been the lucky ones who haven’t gotten sick throughout this pandemic so far. It’s a really difficult time for everyone for so, so many reasons, and we need mental health support both at home and at work more than ever.
There are leadership experts and other “well-being experts” out there who have offered their services to individuals and organizations for many years. Amy and I have both noticed a trend in people who are not trained in mental health offering services that they simply don’t have any training or qualifications to provide. And it scares us both. I reached out to Amy a few months ago to get her thoughts on why this is happening, and how consumers, again both individuals AND companies, can filter out qualified mental health providers from those who may cause more harm than good.

In this episode we’re chatting with Anne Moss Rogers, who is TEDx storyteller, the 2019 YWCA Pat Asch Fellow for social justice, author of the award-winning book, Diary of a Broken Mind, and an Emotionally Naked® motivational speaker who helps people foster a culture of connection to prevent suicide, reduce substance misuse, and find life after loss.
Despite her family’s best efforts, Anne Moss’s 20-year-old son Charles died by suicide on June 5, 2015, after many years of struggle with anxiety, depression, and ultimately addiction. Anne Moss started a blog, EmotionallyNaked.com, and chronicled her family’s tragedy in a newspaper article that went viral.
After receiving a message from a young lady who wrote that one of her blog posts saved her life, Anne Moss sold her digital marketing business and followed her purpose of preventing suicide and reducing the stigma of addiction and mental illness.
She has been featured in the New York Times and was the first suicide loss survivor ever invited to speak at the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH). Anne Moss is also a trainer for the 4-hour evidence-based training called safeTALK.
Anne Moss and I recorded this conversation before COVID changed all of our lives, but it’s amazing how everything we talked about is not only still relevant, I think it’s even MORE relevant now. The rates of depression, anxiety, and risk of suicide are growing at alarming rates, and COVID has only intensified these issues for teens in particular. I invited Anne Moss to come back on the show recently so we could talk about how COVID is impacting teens now, and how people can best support their teens in this trying and unpredictable time. We share a lot of resources throughout our conversation, but I’ve included even more in today’s show notes in case you are worried about your teen and need some extra support.

Today we’re chatting with Rachel Bailey, a Parenting Specialist who has been serving families for over a decade. Besides being a mother of two, she also has master's degree in Clinical Psychology, a certification in Positive Discipline, and has provided services as an ADHD Coach, in-home mentor, and psychotherapist. Currently Rachel teaches parents hands-on tools for raising responsible, resilient, confident children while reducing the stress and guilt in parents' lives.
Rachel’s approach to parenting is one I really think has gotten lost in our society in recent years, but I also think so many busy working parents are really craving this approach. Her focus on “long-game parenting” is something that I think would be so helpful for working parents to integrate into their parenting style. Being a working parent can be so much fun, it really doesn’t have to be a stressful, awful grind. And the tips Rachel shares in today’s episode I think can really help us get re-aligned with what’s important as parents.

Today we’re chatting with Halelly Azulay, who is a consultant, facilitator, leadership development strategist, author, and speaker at international conferences and corporate meetings. In 2006, Halelly founded TalentGrow LLC, a consulting company focused on developing leaders and teams, especially for enterprises experiencing explosive growth or expansion that want a more proactive, strategic approach to leadership development. An expert in leadership, communication skills, emotional intelligence, and authentic networking with more than 20 years of experience, Halelly develops leaders that people *want* to follow. She is the author of two books, Employee Development on a Shoestring and Strength to Strength: How Working from Your Strengths Can Help You Lead a More Fulfilling Life. She offers actionable leadership insights and advice on her blog and her leadership podcast, the TalentGrow Show.
Halelly and I connected through one of our past podcast guests, Kate Swoboda. I was excited to hear Halelly’s perspective on how we can start to integrate some of these skills we’re working on at home, like personal development and emotional intelligence, in the workplace. I’ve mentioned this on a few different episodes at this point, but I really think overcoming burnout and starting to enjoy our lives as working parents is something we need to attack from two different angles: first, within ourselves as individuals. But I also think we really need to start making big changes in companies also, in order to see any sort of widespread shift in our society. That’s the sort of work Halelly is doing, so I wanted to dive deeper with her here to learn more about how we can integrate more emotional intelligence not only at home, but at work too.

Today we’re chatting with Christine McAlister, who is a business coach, the founder of Life With Passion, and the bestselling author of The Income Replacement Formula: Seven Simple Steps To Doing What You Love And Making Six Figures From Anywhere. She helps high-achievers all over the world to replace their incomes, so they can quit and stay out of their 9-5 jobs, by building businesses out of their passions.
I’ve mentioned in the past my experience both in the corporate sector as well as my transition into entrepreneurship. I try to stay away from talking much about business-building tactics and strategies. That’s just not the focus of our show, and there are a lot of people out there who are much more knowledgeable about that stuff. So, while Christine does focus on helping women build successful businesses, that’s not what we’re talking about today. Instead, we’re going to focus on how a working parent knows whether they should build a business of their own, or whether they would be happier in a corporate setting.
Building your own business might create more flexibility in your schedule, but it can also add additional stress, both financially and in terms of your time commitment. Over the last five years, I’ve come to believe that different people can be happy in either arena. It’s really more about the choices we each make in our own lives. But the question is, how do you know whether building your own business will lead you to happiness, or if you should try to make things work in the corporate world?

Today we’re welcoming Katie Rossler to the show. Katie is a licensed professional counselor from the United States living in Munich, Germany. She has over 10 years of experience working with individuals, couples and families on improving their relationships and enjoyment of life. After four years of being a stay at home mom, she created the program, From Stay at Home Mom to Chief Household Officer®, which teaches and empowers moms to run their households like entrepreneurs do a business. Katie has two girls, 4 and 2, and loves to be outside with her family. She is a lover of sushi, yoga, the beach, and laughing.
Today we’re going to talk about a few different aspects of adjusting to a big life change, such as a cross-country or even an international move. What we talk about here would apply to any big life transition though, whether it’s moving or having a new baby or starting a new job or dealing with a family illness. Big life transitions really do have a way of making us feel disoriented and uncertain, like the world is shifting beneath our feet. We usually have a whole new list of logistics to handle. But in times of change, we also have to re-negotiate roles with our partner, help our kids manage their big emotions, and figure out how to take care of ourselves while we’re dealing with all kinds of unpredictability. I’m really excited to chat with Katie to hear more about her experience, and to get her professional advice to help us manage these types of big changes in our lives as successfully as possible.

Last week my husband, Joey, and I celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary. So, in honor of our anniversary, I wanted to reflect on the vows I made to Joey on our wedding day, and how those vows look in the daily reality of our life, 7 years and two kids later.
My Marriage Vows:
Joey, words cannot express how happy and grateful I am to be standing with you today. You have the most beautiful heart of anyone I know. You have fulfilled my life in ways I never imagined possible, and I couldn’t be happier to become your wife today. I consider it a privilege to be able to share the rest of my life with you.
First and foremost, I promise to be authentic with you, to let you see me exactly as I am without fear or reservation. And in turn, I will encourage you to be yourself, to appreciate your individuality as it changes and grows over time. I will always remind you to be true to yourself, setting aside my own expectations for who I want you to be.
I promise to be trustworthy and loyal to you. I will protect your secrets, empower you to overcome your fears, and encourage your most ambitious dreams without passing judgment. I promise to listen carefully when you want to talk, and I will sit with you in silence when there are no words.
I promise to do my part to make our life together fun. I promise to contribute joy, adventure, creativity, and a strong sense of character into the family that we are beginning here today. I will be your companion in parenthood, to make our family’s love and happiness a priority.
Finally, I promise to be your best friend and partner in every way I possibly can. I vow to share in all of your joys, big and small, and to stand by your side even in the worst of times. I will respect and honor our marriage for the rest of our lives. I love you so much, Joey. Thank you for being my husband.

Today we’re chatting with Amanda Walker, who is a Healthstyle Coach who empowers women to feel amazing naked. She is the creator of the Feel Amazing Naked Program and the Feel Amazing Naked Podcast and the blogger and mastermind behind awalkmyway.com. She has guided thousands of women to conquer the fear and confusion that was once keeping them stuck. Amanda uses a “WHOLE”istic, no B.S., approach to coaching and blends strategy, skill and mindset to help clients unearth the root causes of their struggles with food, body and mind to help them create the life they crave.
Amanda and I were connected by a past podcast guest, Heather Chauvin from episode 74. Amanda and I have gotten to know each other pretty well over the last several months. We’ve both appeared on each other’s podcasts at this point, and then last week I joined one of her groups to talk about burnout with some of the ladies who are in Amanda’s program.

Sarah Santacroce is an internationally recognized LinkedIn Specialist & Online Presence Mentor who has personally coached over 1,900 entrepreneurs. She helps them position themselves as experts on LinkedIn so they get clients with ease. In addition, Sarah is known for helping fellow introverts market their business authentically & anxiety-free, sell their services & make a difference. She’s also the founder of The Gentle Business Revolution movement and host of the podcast with the same name. When she’s not working, she loves adventure & traveling, yoga & nature walks or hanging out with her family.
When I heard Sarah Santacroce talking about her Gentle Business Revolution on another podcast, I was really intrigued. Not only because I do see companies becoming more intentional about the way they do business, but I also think as consumers we’re just ready to stop being taken advantage of too. Sarah’s model really is rooted in seeing people as human beings, which as you know is a big message we promote here on this show. I think The Gentle Business Revolution is important and should be adopted in a lot of different ways. I’m really excited to learn more about how Sarah is integrating this model in the work she does, and to share that with you as well, whether you’re a corporate professional, an entrepreneur, or even just a consumer who’s ready to work with more human-oriented businesses.

Today we’re chatting with Ayelet Marinovich, who helps families feel confident they can raise great humans from day one - without having to buy a single toy. She is a mother of two young boys, a parent educator, singer, author, and pediatric speech-language pathologist gone rogue. She is the host of the Learn With Less Podcast, and creator of the Learn With Less™ Curriculum, supporting parents and caregivers along their journey through early parenthood.
Parenting in modern society can feel impossible at times. We’re constantly bombarded with advice and research and studies and opinions about the “right way” to raise our kids in the modern age. The information is often conflicting or outdated or sets us up for trying to meet impossible standards. I’ve also personally found that most of the advice doesn’t apply to my child or isn’t in alignment with our family’s core values. That’s why I wanted to bring Ayelet onto the show. Her approach really helps parents re-focus on what’s really important in parenting: connecting with our children in simple and natural ways. We don’t need to spend thousands of dollars on toys or contraptions. We don’t have to sign them up for every extra-curricular activity. We don’t have to do academic drills with them. All they need is our love and acceptance. Ayelet shares with us how we can integrate that love and connection into our daily life in practical and simple ways.

Today we’re chatting with Marisa Lonic, who is the founder of Mama Work It. Marisa is a married, working mom of four kids, a native New Yorker, and now lives in northern California. She helps moms find the time they need to do the things they want via a time management course she facilitates called “The Get More Time Project,” and a blog she writes on the regular. She recently published her first book, Time Momagement, which covers gems like goal setting, prioritizing, and managing your time during the challenging years of raising young kids. Marisa also does speaking engagements and live events for moms in the San Francisco Bay Area.
This was such a fun conversation. Marisa is one of the most straightforward and proactive moms I’ve ever met. I just love her outlook on how to juggle a thriving career and kids and marriage and friendships and taking care of yourself. Her book is so practical and includes some of the most critical things a working parent can do to create a life they actually enjoy. And also an exciting note to share with you all. When we recorded this episode, Marisa was pregnant with her fourth baby, and since then she’s given birth to their newest little addition. So, congratulations to you and your family, Marisa! We hope everyone is settling in well.

Back on episode 71 of the show, Rebecca Ching and I talked about a therapeutic approach called Internal Family Systems, and how it can help us re-frame the way we deal with big emotional challenges. One of the things she mentioned in our conversation really resonated with me, and I wanted to dig a little deeper into it a little more today. Rebecca talked about how many people these days are stuck living only in their head, totally cut off from their emotions. We talked more in that episode about the research and the reasons behind WHY that’s happening, which I think is fascinating. If you didn’t listen that to that conversation yet, definitely check that out too. I’ll link our conversation up in the show notes.
But this experience of detaching from FEELING our emotions and relying on our heads alone to process what’s going on for us emotionally was something I could really relate to. I’ve spent most of my life INTELLECTUALIZING my emotions. Up until ten years ago or so, I didn’t really FEEL them in my body or in my soul at all. I mostly saw my emotions as some puzzle that needed to be figured out or solved. And in order to do that, I needed to keep some distance from them. I needed to bury them a little before I could look at them objectively. I relied heavily on trying to put a positive spin on things, on “letting things go”, and analyzing what was happening, rather than actually FEELING the emotions that were coming up for me.
But in doing that, I really was just suppressing, and often completely invalidating, what was really happening inside of me. At the time, I truly didn’t realize I wasn’t feeling those emotions. I just thought I was “being mature” or “staying in control” or “expressing myself in a healthy way.” Those were all fancy ways of saying that I was avoiding the real pain of experiencing my own feelings.

Today we’re chatting with Heather Chauvin, who is the creator of the Mom Is In Control Podcast, a mostly solo show where she tells it like it is. She reveals her most vulnerable truths about womanhood, parenting her 3 boys, living through stage 4 cancer, navigating marriage and creating business success without burning out. With new podcast episodes coming out every day, Heather draws on her experience as a social worker, mental health advocate and inspirational speaker to revolutionize how women define themselves. She challenges them to give themselves permission to live more, drop the guilt and ask for what they need. Heather has been featured on The Huffington Post, The OWN Network, CTV, and interviewed by many notable podcasters and radio shows. Her motto is in order to raise happy, calm and confident children, we must become to person we most desire them to be.
This was such a fun and inspiring conversation. Heather is so warm and candid about what it really takes to create a life that fills you up, rather than depletes you. There are a lot of people out there selling a silver bullet promise that will fix all of your problems. In this conversation, we really dive into the reality of what it takes to create a life you ENJOY as a busy working parent. You don’t have to give up the things that are most important to you to have a rich and full life. Instead, it’s about making strategic and deliberate choices about how you live your life as a whole.
