Stay-at-FULL Motherhood | SAHM, Prioritize, End Distraction, Get it Done, Rushing, Flailing, Mom Guilt

We often set New Year’s Resolutions from a place of seeing all the ways we failed at the ones we set last year. We hope for yet ANOTHER chance to become a whole new person once the clock ticks around to midnight. But if we want to create this sort of magic, we need only be celebrating who we ALREADY are. Listen to today’s episode to find out how and then sign up for a free discovery call with me a...

We spend so much of our time and energy around the holidays spinning in thoughts about our to-do list, and our in-laws, and trying to create magical experiences for our kids. And all this ever does is take us out of the moment we’re in. In this episode we explore how to listen to our bodies and to BE with our emotions instead, so that we can break free from the same old loops and create the experi...

So often we find ourselves crowdsourcing our discernment - asking everyone else’s opinions before we ever even think to ask ourselves. In this episode we explore how to stop drowning out the sense of knowing we have in our bodies about what’s true for US, and start using our brains as tools to create exactly what we want for ourselves.

Are you aware of how you’re currently spending your time? Are you listening to the stories in your head about WHO YOU ARE and WHAT YOU DO and regarding those stories as what determines your identity? In this episode we are reminded that we always have the power to DECIDE on who we are - and that we can give ourselves permission to invest our time however we choose.

We're exhausted because we're perpetually rushing from one thing to the next (the most taxing thing for our bodies) and negotiating on every decision we make (the most taxing thing for our brains). Then we multiply this x 100 once the holiday season comes back around. We go back and forth with errands and drop-offs and events; the cleaning, cooking and laundry shoved somewhere in between. And we g...

What You Waiting For? When we tell ourselves we’re just waiting for the RIGHT time to start that thing we’re longing to do, we give TIME responsibility for whether or not we actually do it. But TIME cannot create anything in our lives; only WE can ever do that. Listen to today’s episode for three quick check-ins you can use to get yourself going when you’re lacking motivation, and start enjoying w...

When we struggle to make decisions, it’s so easy to assume that we’re just bad at making decisions; that we’re just wired that way. But your brain is then ignoring all the evidence that you HAVE, in fact, made decisions quickly and easily in the past. In today’s episode we look at the ONE question to ask yourself when you’re struggling with a decision so that you can find more ease and peace in yo...

It’s easy to get stuck in thoughts about everything that’s “wrong” in your relationship and to lose hope that you’ll ever be able to get back to a place of connection and fun. But as this episode explores, when we start to feel that disconnect with our partners, the only place to start is with our connection to ourselves.

What is your priority right now? How do you decide what it is you want to prioritize? In this episode we explore the ONE thing we want to focus on as a SAHM that, by doing it, makes everything else much easier, or perhaps not even necessary at all. Come join my Facebook group ‘The Time Management, Prioritization, and Focus Fix for SAHMs, where I’ll be sharing tips and hacks for getting things done...

It’s easy to feel like you’re lost, flailing and failing when you don’t know what is you really want for yourself, or why you’re really doing what you’re doing day after day as a SAHM. Prioritizing your values can help you to come home to yourself and give purpose to how you allocate your time, as well as make room for your passion and the value you have to share with the world. Come join my new F...

We’re always looking outside of ourselves for ways we can be more productive at home - we’ve tried all the planners and to-do list tips and tricks but nothing ever seems to change. That’s because the answer only ever lies inside of ourselves - in deciding on a new identity: “I am a person who gets things done in the time I set for them.” And then making decisions as HER. Listen to today’s episode...

When you’re telling yourself you can only do the thing you feel pulled to do once everything on your to-do list is done FIRST, you end up living by your to-do list because there will always be something that needs doing. Learn 3 things you can STOP doing TODAY so that you can prioritize pursuing your passion alongside your motherhood and create time for what you love.

The thought that “it never stops” so neither can you will keep you perpetually stuck in a cycle of doing and then falling behind. Use this simple method to do what you love every single day and let THAT be the thing to give you the energy and clarity you need to get WHAT MATTERS done in your life at home.

If you think you don’t have time to rest, take a listen to this episode because you might already be doing it! Rest is not what we think it is, and this idea that we “should” be resting as portrayed by Instagram quickly becomes just another reason for stay-at-home moms to make themselves wrong. You don’t have to put your feet up, but you can enjoy some rest, even if your kids are right there squab...

As stay-at-home moms we feel the need to always, always be productive. Rest is something we think we can get to once all of the to-dos are crossed off our lists…but the to-do list, of course, never ends. Here we reframe your decision to stay home with your kids and look at why OWNING it is one of the most powerful things you can do for yourself as a mom.

We all, of course, think we know what “self-care” means but then, more often than not, find ourselves not doing it. This episode takes a new look at how we want to define self-care and how it benefits not just us, but everyone around us.

We often push off doing what we want to do for ourselves until a point in the future when we’ll “have time” (usually when the last kid starts preschool). But what will still undoubtedly be there when you reach that point is your relationship with TIME. And when that is one of blaming, shaming and handing over responsibility for what we’ve not yet achieved, we find that what we want doesn’t just fa...

When you trust in yourself fully, you create opportunities to let go of what anyone else thinks or what you think you should be doing, and create exactly what you want for YOU.

YOU get to decide who you are and what you believe about yourself - you don’t need to achieve something first in order to believe in yourself. Deciding FIRST puts you way ahead on the path to achieving everything you want to create for YOU alongside your motherhood.

It’s easy to get caught up in overwhelm when it comes to all things back-to-school. Listen to today’s episode to get done what you want to get done without the stress and hustle.

Mom-guilt is always going to be there - you can choose to make it a problem and let it stop you from making the changes you want to make, or you can invite it along for the ride as you continue on in creating exactly what you want for yourself.

We are perpetually exhausted because we’re constantly judging ourselves for failing - as moms, as partners, as sisters, daughters, friends…the list goes on. What this reveals to us is how little we value ourselves. When that changes, everything changes.

When you’re feeling lost as a stay-at-home mom, the first thing to commit to doing is to stop telling yourself you’re lost. Being lost is not your identity, not is it a fact about you. You can remember exactly who you are any time you want to.

Today I’m quoting Glennon Doyle as we explore rushing and living like snow globes all in a flurry - or, as my one client calls it, doing our usual flailathons!

Resentment towards our partners consumes time and energy we could instead invest in fulfilling the longing we have for what they have - a willingness to prioritize what WE want too.
