ADVICE

Start With Two Minutes

Start micro practices: two minutes of meditation is valid and effective.
Increase slowly from one day per week to five minutes and build consistency before expanding.

ADVICE

Recharge Before You Run Empty

Treat your wellbeing like charging a phone: recharge before you're empty.
Regular small recharges prevent long recoveries from burnout.

ADVICE

Pick One Small Habit

Start with one habit, one day a week, and master that before adding more.
Build reliably at small increments rather than overcommitting and burning out.

I’m so excited to introduce you to my friend, Rosa Castano. Rosa and I jumped online to have a conversation all about well-being and mindfulness - but not the way you normally expect. As a business owner and mother, Rosa understands more than most how much we already have on our plates - and instead of adding something else to our never ending to do list, she wants to help us feel less stressed and show us how to really look after ourselves. This conversation is everything.

WE CHAT ABOUT:

Why it’s important to have a self care practice as a part of your routine as a business owner and as a mother.
What self care actually is and how you don’t need to have time for a 2 hour meditation to introduce practices that will keep you from getting burnt out.
What is the real definition of mindfulness and how can we use it to change the way we choose to react to any given situation.
The power of the breathe and how it connects to both our conscious minds and our unconscious being - and why that’s important.
How to reduce stress during pregnancy, postpartum and as busy, high performing women in our general lives.

ABOUT ROSA:

Over the course of her 15+ years corporate career, Rosa has worked in all types of settings from small businesses, freshly minted startups, and large, diverse non-profit corporations. Like many others, her job position was eliminated during the COVID-19 Global Pandemic. She was five months pregnant at the time.

The shift allowed her to take the time to re-evaluate her career aspirations, landing her in an industry I have long been passionate about: the wellness industry. As a certified Meditation & Mindfulness leader, she decided to combine her passion for Well-Being and knowledge of the Corporate world to create Stress Management Workshops.

She is especially passionate about helping High Performing Women & CEO’s Moms manage their Stress at Work and at Home to create a better work/life integration and create more space for happiness and well-being.
