“Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go!” or “Come on, come on, come on!” these are familiar phrases when rushing through daily life, particularly as a working mom. Although every working mom can relate, rushing is completely optional. There is a physical, mental and emotional impact that a “rushed” life has that takes away from the calm, present and joy-filled experience of everyday life and there is a way you can avoid it.
In this episode, I dive deep into the mindset behind this hurried life, dissecting how our day-to-day hustle shapes our interactions and well-being and how, in the end, we bring this upon ourself (yikes!). I will also dive into 3 steps to help you shift from the relentless chase against time to a more controlled and present approach to life's demands.
Topics in this episode:Busy moms often feel rushed – why does this happen?How rushing feels stressful and chaotic, leading to impatience and hasty actions.Rushing is a mindset you can change, not just a result of having too many things to do.If you had to choose between being “on time” or present, which would you choose? It’s important to know your answer. 3 steps to feeling less rushed and being more in control of your time/energy

In this episode I introduce the "75/25 rule," where you make it a goal to ONLY be 75% ready for meetings, presentations, or talks with clients, instead of stressing out to get everything perfect. I will explain why going beyond 75% preparedness often doesn't pay off in terms of the extra time and energy spent.
In this episode I will discuss the downsides of overpreparing, like missing out on quality time with family or personal hobbies because you're too caught up in work details. When you are not aiming for 100% preparedness, you can save yourself from feeling stressed and make room for the things in life that make you happy.
At the end of the episode, I will offer 3 tips to adopt the 75/25 rule in your daily routine. I will share stories from working moms who've strived for only 75% preparedness and found a better balance between their work and personal lives.
Topics in this episode:Rebecca Olson talks about the "75/25 rule": Be mostly ready for stuff, not perfectly ready.Trying too hard to be 100% ready isn't worth the extra work.If you don't aim for perfection, you'll have more time for fun and family.People who tried the 75/25 rule ended up happier with their work and home life.3 tips to adopting the 75/25 rule

Most women don’t quite understand what is at the heart of mom guilt. They’ll say they feel guilty for working or for sending their kids to daycare or for not spending more time with their family, but this is not actually where guilt comes from.
In today’s episode I’m sharing with you the real story behind mom guilt. Here is a hint: It does not have to do with how much you work, or how much time you spend with your kids or the fact that they spend more time with a caretaker then with you during the workday…it is about the story you are telling yourself.
I will also normalize the experience of mom guilt and explain its connection to the mama bear phenomenon. At the end I will offer 3 reflection exercises to help pull yourself out of any guilt that you’re experiencing so you are able to be more present and engaged at both work and home.
Topics in this episode:Mom guilt doesn’t have to do with working or with the amount of time you spend with your kids. You are not a bad mom for working Changing the story from being “not good enough” as a mom because you work What do your kids gain from being at daycare? The difference between sadness and guilt What is the mama bear phenomenon and how does it contribute to guilt?

As an ambitious working mom, burnout and exhaustion come easily. Your brain is hardwired to want to do more and achieve more, it’s part of who you are and what makes you successful, but it’s also causing exhaustion. The most natural thing for you to do is to achieve more, not to rest. Resting, prioritizing yourself and your family, choosing to do fun and spontaneous things instead of work more, this kind of life doesn't come naturally to ambitious women and so requires intentionality and effort.
In today’s episode I’m sharing with you 7 practical things you can do to help you prioritize rest and fun instead of doing more so you can create the sustainable ambitious (yet balanced) life you want.
Topics in this episode:Why exhaustion and burnout happen is so common for working momsWhat it takes to ensure burnout doesn’t happen to youControlling your time and energy is the opposite of exhaustionCommitting to none work timeSleep as a strategyMy favorite practice to give my brain some space

Most ambitious women have a core value of “being available” that they're almost ashamed to admit. It's like a value that they don't want to value. Always being available makes it difficult to create work-life balance because it has you always being “on” and unable to shut down your work brain, rest or be present with your family.
In today's episode I dive into 6 excuses that your brain is likely using to justify being available and the over-working behavior that comes with it. You cannot be both present and available, at some point you will need to choose and I’ll explain the first steps on how to do that.
Topics in this episode:The core value no one wants but most women have: being availableWhy valuing being available is not helpful to creating work-life balance How to know if you are over-valuing being available 6 excuses your brain is using to keep you feeling tethered to your phone and to responding to messages and emails You are still good at your job, even if you are unavailableThe first step to stop being available: decide when you are working and when you are not and communicate that to your team

11 years ago, when I was pregnant with my daughter, I felt like I was in the middle of an identity crisis. I didn’t know who I was or what I wanted out of life, my career or motherhood. I was driven by success and achievement and I knew that wasn’t going to serve me as I started a family. I knew I needed to make some changes, but I had no idea what to do or how to do it.
I went on my own self-discovery journey, that eventually led me to become a coach. But it was an up and down journey that took getting comfortable with failure, uncertainty and required an increase in confidence.
In today’s episode, I share my personal working mom journey and how I went from confusion and unfulfillment to success and balance. It required several leaps of faith and I will tell you how I navigated each of them.
Topics in this episode:I was the breadwinner of the family and it felt too irresponsible to make a changeI had to get comfortable with potential failureDeveloping an internal compass to help guide my decisions was keyI never knew “for sure” if things would work out, but I did it anyway It took risky investments of money and leaps of faith to get where I am at today

Motivation becomes almost non-existent by February for new year’s resolutions and goals. If you are like many working moms, you probably want a “redo” or to start fresh this month or perhaps you’re even ready to quit. But here’s the thing, quitting or even starting over is one of the worst things you can do.
There’s a reason why you didn’t make progress towards yours goals in January and you need to know exactly what didn’t work and why so you can fix it moving forward. But if you decide to start again, you’re likely not going to evaluate your failed attempts. In fact, avoiding thinking about failure is probably one of the reasons why you want to start over to begin with.
In this episode I make a case for why you should keep going toward your goals instead of start fresh, take a “redo” or even quit. Additionally, I will offer 3 insights into why that is the better direction to take especially if you find yourself already off track for the year.
Topics in this episode:What you miss out on if you try to start again toward your goalsThe importance of failure and building a failure toleranceThe role emotions play in you making progress toward your goals (or not)You have 2 options right now, when it comes to your new year’s resolutions or goals – here is how each of them will play out

If there’s one thing that gets completely de-prioritized by every mom I know, it’s SEX. Look, I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to just be roommates with my partner. I want a fun, exciting and consistent sex life. But as ambitious working moms this can be hard! It becomes one more thing you “have” to do and it feels more like a chore rather than an intimate experience. So to help us figure out what it takes to prioritize sex after kids, I interviewed sex and pleasure coach, Danielle Savory. In the episode Danielle and I talk about why sex after kids is so hard and why it's important to put effort into a better sex life (the impact goes far beyond the bedroom). Danielle also shares her #1 tool for making sex a priority and how to “warm yourself up” so that you’re ready to go when sex happens. This is a juicy one, so let’s get to it!
Topics in this episode:Why is sex after kids so hard? Normalizing the physical and emotional changes that happen after having kids that make sex more difficult.The importance of pleasure (not necessarily just the kind that happens in the bedroom)How to avoid your partner always thinking a snuggle means you “want it”.
