In this episode, I'm sharing how I started...

How long does it actually take your family to get out the door? What about making dinner, resetting the kitchen, getting through bedtime—or completing that "45-minute" workout?

Then we're frustrated when we're rushing, running late, or can't fit in the habi...

When several routines in your life feel like they aren't working, it can be tempting to sit down and try to reorganize everything at once. Your morning routine. Dinner. Laundry. Workouts. Bedtime. The kids' responsibilities. But everything might need attention without everything needing to be the priority. In today's episode, I'm showing you how to identify which routine is creating the most frict...

Motherhood changes more than your schedule... It changes how predictable your life is.

In today's episode, we're talking about why that loss of predictability creates so much mental pressu...

A busy schedule doesn't always feel stressful because you have too much to do. Sometimes it's stressful because certain parts of your day leave you with very little flexibility. School pickup.

And if you don't reco...

We spend so much time trying to manage our time as moms, but time isn't the only resource we're working with. We also have a limited amount of mental, physical, and emotional capacity available to handle what our lives are asking of us. And when you're constantly...

Do you ever make a plan for your week only to realize by Tuesday that there was never actually enough time to do everything you put on your list? You aren't necessarily planning the wrong things. You may be planning around time and capacity you don't actually have. Motherhood changed your life. There are more interruptions, more decisions, more people depending on you, different schedules and more...
