170. Mindset Reset: Procrastination: Why It Makes Life Harder & How To Break The Cycle

Hi Mamas, This month, we’re focusing on creating time and space in your life to prioritize what truly lights you up. In this episode, we tackle one of the biggest time wasters—procrastination. Inspired by Mason Cooley’s quote, “Procrastination makes easy things hard, and hard things harder,” we’ll break down why we procrastinate, the hidden costs, and practical tips to overcome it. 💖 My challenge for this week mamas is:  Pick one thing you’ve been procrastinating on—just one—and get it done. Start small if you need to. Once you’ve finished, take a moment to celebrate. Notice how much lighter you feel without that task hanging over your head. And then, let that momentum carry you into tackling the next thing. I'd love to hear to celebrate the task you get done this week!

Hi Mamas, Come hang out with me during my favorite week of the year—the magical space between Christmas and New Year’s!

163. Mindset Reset: Why You Haven’t Failed as a Working Mom

Hi mamas,   As 2025 approaches, it’s time to reflect on the past year—what went well, what didn’t, and how we can use those lessons to create a better year ahead. In this episode, we dive into the mindset shift inspired by Thomas Edison’s quote: “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.” If you’re an ambitious working mom who’s been hard on yourself about missed goals or setbacks, this episode is here to remind you that failure isn’t the end—it’s part of the journey.   My challenge for you this week mamas is to reflect and reimagine with these 3 steps: List Your Lessons: Grab a journal or a piece of paper and write down three moments from the past year that felt like failures. Then, beside each one, write what you learned from it. Reframe Failure: Choose one “failure” and reframe it as a win. Set an Experiment: Pick one thing to try differently this week. I'd love to hear what failure you’re going to reframe!

161. Mindset Reset: Defining Success On Your Own Terms

Hi Mamas, As working moms, we’re constantly navigating the push and pull of work, family, and societal expectations… often losing sight of our own definition of success. Today’s quote, “Define success on your own terms, achieve it by your own rules, and build a life you're proud to live,” by Anne Sweeney, is your reminder to hit pause and rewrite the playbook. In this episode, I break down what it really means to define success for yourself, create rules that work for your life, and take small, intentional steps toward building a life that feels authentic and fulfilling. 💖 My challenge for you this week mamas is to: Listen: to Episode 162 Reflect: after you listen take 10 minutes to journal what success means to you in this season of life—at work, at home, and for yourself. Write it down. Be honest. Rewrite the Rules: Identify one “rule” you feel trapped by like “I have to be available 24/7 for work”) and rewrite it in a way that serves you (e.g., “I will not check emails after dinner”). Take Action: Choose one small step to move toward the life you want—a boundary, a goal, or a change. I'd love to hear the “rule” you feel trapped by and what small step you are going to take!
