  • #346 - 5 Small Shifts to Make Your Home a “Soft Place to Fall” - For Everyone, Including You
    2025/05/25

    Let’s talk about something that often gets overlooked when life gets busy—how your home feels. I don’t mean how clean or organized it is. I mean whether it feels like a soft place to land after a long day or just another place filled with demands and noise.

    This matters because your home should be more than just a roof over your head or a place to crash. It should feel like the one space in the world where you can truly exhale. A place where you, and everyone you love, can let down their guard and recharge.

    But if we’re honest, how often does your home actually feel that way? For so many of us, it feels like another to-do list we can’t keep up with or a space filled with chaos instead of calm.

    What if your home could be something different? What if it could be a place where you and your family feel supported, safe, and ready to face the world again?

    This week, I’m going to discuss when your home feels like another job and 5 small shifts to create a “safe place to fall.”

  • #345 - How to Create a Working Mom Retreat You’ll Actually Enjoy
    2025/05/18

    Life as a working mom can be nonstop, can’t it? There’s always another task, another deadline, another person who needs your attention.

    Somewhere in the chaos, it’s easy to lose sight of what makes you feel good. Maybe you’ve thought about taking a break or even dreamed of a spa day or a quiet weekend, but the idea fades because it feels like too much effort—or too much to ask.

    Here’s the thing: it’s not about the retreat being perfect or extravagant. It’s about creating a moment for yourself that feels meaningful. Something that lets you breathe, recharge, and reconnect with what you need. But how do you even begin to make that happen?

    This week, I’m going to discuss why we rarely take time for ourselves as working moms and how to create a retreat that feels possible and perfect for you.

  • #344 - The Impact of Working Moms on Sons
    2025/05/11

    Here’s the thing—your son is always watching, even when it doesn’t seem like it. He’s noticing how you juggle work, family, and all the other responsibilities on your plate.

    He’s paying attention to how you handle tough moments, how you celebrate wins, and how you show up every single day. What do you think he’s learning from all of that?

    We often think about the messages we’re sending to our daughters, but our sons are soaking up just as much. Have you ever stopped to wonder what he’s learning about women by watching you? Or how seeing you work hard might shape the kind of partner or leader he’ll be one day?

    And it’s not just about what you’re doing—it’s about what you’re showing him is possible. By pursuing your career while raising a family, you’re setting an example of strength and capability that he’ll carry with him for the rest of his life. How do you think that might change the way he sees the roles of men and women in the world?

    This week, I’m going to discuss modeling respect, equality, and emotional intelligence for our sons as well as teaching resilience, work ethic, and the value of connection.

  • #343 - The Impact of Working Moms on Daughters
    2025/05/04

    With Mother’s Day in a week, I decided that for the next two weeks I’m going to talk about the impact of working moms on daughters and on sons. This week I'm just focusing on daughters, but if you don’t have a daughter, I would still listen in because, let's face it, you are a daughter and you never know what you might discover.

    And if you have a daughter like I do, I want to talk about something that’s probably crossed your mind as a working mom: how your career is impacting your daughter. It’s one of those things we think about in the quiet moments, wondering if what we’re doing is helping her or holding her back.

    Maybe you’ve asked yourself, “Am I showing her the right example?” Or, “Does she feel like I’m not there enough?” These questions can feel heavy because, let’s be honest, being a mom comes with its own suitcase of guilt, and working just seems to add more to it.

    But here’s the thing: the impact you’re having on your daughter might be more powerful than you realize. It’s not just about how many hours you’re home or how many soccer practices you make it to—it’s about what she’s seeing and learning from you every single day.

    This week, I’m going to discuss how working moms shape ambition and confidence in daughters, and how to balance challenges and build a stronger connection.

  • #342 - The Best Time Management Habits For Working Moms
    2025/04/27

    Being a working mom can feel like a never-ending juggling act. When my children were younger, I remember that some days, it was like no matter how early I woke up or how much I planned, there was still too much to do and not enough time to do it.

    I know I’m not the only one who’s felt this way. You start the day with the best intentions, but by the time it’s over, you’re wondering where all the hours went and why you still feel behind.

    It’s exhausting. And let’s be honest—sometimes it feels like no matter how hard you try, you’re just barely keeping your head above water.

    The problem isn’t that we’re not doing enough. The problem is that we’re doing too much of the wrong things and not enough of what actually helps.

    This week, I’m going to discuss why it feels like there’s never enough time and the best time management habits for working moms.

  • #341 - How To Organize Your Life With Better Systems
    2025/04/20

    What if you could wake up knowing exactly what needed to get done instead of feeling like you were already behind? What if you could make life run more smoothly without adding more to your plate?

    The good news is, setting up better systems isn’t complicated. You don’t need fancy planners, expensive apps, or hours of extra time.

    All you need is a simple way to organize things so that your brain isn’t working overtime trying to remember everything. Once you have that, life gets easier—without you having to work harder.

    This week, I’m going to discuss why life feels disorganized and how to organize your life with better systems.

  • #340 - Finding Your Tribe - The Importance Of Friendships As A Busy Working Mom
    2025/04/13

    Think about the last time you laughed so hard with a friend that it felt like a weight was lifted off your shoulders. When was the last time you felt truly understood without having to explain yourself? These are the kinds of connections that can keep us grounded, even when life feels chaotic.

    Yet, for so many moms, it feels like friendships belong in the “someday” pile—the pile of things we’ll get to once everything else is done. But let’s be honest: when is everything ever done?

    What if finding your tribe isn’t about adding something else to your to-do list but about enriching the life you’re already living? What if it’s about realizing that connection doesn’t have to be complicated or time-consuming—it just has to be intentional?

    Friendships aren’t just a luxury for when you have extra time (does that even exist?). They’re a lifeline, a source of energy and comfort, and they can help you be the best version of yourself—for you and everyone else who depends on you.

    This week, I’m going to discuss why it feels so hard to maintain friendships when you’re a busy working mom and how building meaningful relationships doesn’t have to be complicated.

  • #339 - Dealing with Judgment and Criticism as a Working Mom
    2025/04/06

    Have you ever left work at a reasonable time to pick up your kids and felt like you were being silently—or not so silently—judged? Maybe a coworker makes a snide comment, or you get that look from someone as if to say, “Must be nice to leave early.”

    The thing is, juggling work and family is already hard enough without feeling like you’re under a microscope. You’re trying to do your best for your family and your career, but somehow, it never feels like enough. It’s exhausting, and it can leave you second-guessing yourself constantly.

    Why is it that judgment from others, or even ourselves, can hit so hard? Why does one comment, one glance, or even one unspoken assumption stick with us for hours—or days? It’s almost like our brains are wired to take every criticism and use it as proof that we’re not doing enough.

    This week, I’m going to discuss why judgment and criticism feel so heavy and how to take back control.
