159. Mindset Reset: Take the First Step - Finding Your Purpose One Small Action at a Time

Hi mamas, Have you been feeling stuck lately—juggling work, motherhood, and everything in between—and you’ve been wondering, “What’s next for me? What’s my bigger purpose?” 💖 I know how overwhelming it can feel when you think about starting something new… a dream, a side hustle, a fitness goal, or even rediscovering a part of yourself outside of your daily roles. It’s easy to convince ourselves that we need to have the entire plan figured out before we begin but we don’t! And that’s why we are diving into this quote today by Dr. Martin Luther King, “You don’t need to see the whole staircase. You just need to take the first step.” 💖 My challenge for you this week mamas is to identify one small step you can take toward a dream, goal, or purpose that’s been on your heart. It doesn’t have to be big or life-changing; it just needs to move you forward. I'd love to hear the small step you are going to take!

155. Mindset Reset: Choosing Calm Over Chaos: How to Manage Holiday Stress with Intention

Hi Mamas, The holidays can be a whirlwind, but stress doesn’t have to control your experience. Today we’re talking about our responses to life’s curveballs, especially during the busy holiday season. Learn practical tips to pause, breathe, and respond intentionally so you can enjoy more joy and less chaos as we unpack this quote by Maureen Kiloran: "Stress is not what happens to us. It is our response to what happens. And response is something we can choose."  Plus, I’m sharing my favorite ways to turn stressful moments into opportunities for connection, calm, and even a little fun (hint: it involves a good game of 20 Questions!). 💖My challenge for you this week mamas is…. practice the art of choosing your response. Each time something stressful happens, take a pause. Ask yourself: Is this worth my energy? How can I respond in a way that serves me? Keep a small notebook or use the notes app on your phone to jot down one time each day when you paused and responded intentionally instead of reacting.   I'd love to hear how you managed your stress this week… head on over to our Facebook community Work-Life Balance For Working Moms and tell us all about it and you can help inspire other moms, just like you.

153. Mindset Reset: The Best Gift You Can Give This Holiday Season

Hi Mamas! In the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, it’s easy to focus on the to-do lists, the perfect decorations, and endless gift shopping. But what if the most meaningful gift you could give your loved ones wasn’t something you could wrap? In this episode, we break down how giving your time and attention as the greatest gift of all. Listen in to learn how to shift from doing to being, ways to simplify your schedule, and how small, intentional moments can create lasting memories. Plus, I share practical tips for making time during the holidays without adding more stress to your plate. 💖 My challenge for you this week mamas is to give the gift of your time intentionally. Pick One Person: Choose someone in your life who would deeply value your time. It could be your child, your partner, a friend, or even a co-worker. Block out time where you limit distractions (put away your cell phones!), where you are going to be fully present, where you listen and engage.  And lastly, at the end of the week reflect on how the that time you spent with them impacted your relationship with them.

151. Mindset Reset: Finding Balance in Everyday Chaos - How Gratitude Can Transform Your Life as a Working Mom

Hi Mamas! In today’s episode, we’re talking about the art of gratitude and how practicing thankfulness can really help working moms find more balance and joy in daily life. Inspired by the quote, “The more you practice the art of thankfulness, the more you have to be thankful for,” by Norman Vincent Peale, we discuss the transformative effects of gratitude, from grounding us in the present to creating positive ripple effects in our families. 💖 My challenge for you this week mamas is to put the art of thankfulness into action: each day, find three things to be thankful for. Write them down, say them out loud, or even just think about them for a moment. They don’t have to be big—anything from a beautiful sunrise to a warm hug or a smooth commute counts. By the end of the week, you’ll have a list of things that brought you joy, even on the busiest days.
