Real Happy Mom Podcast: Recent Episodes

Toni-Ann Mayembe, DDS

Hey there, mom! Are you juggling all the things in motherhood from managing your time, getting healthy meals on the table, to being a present wife all while making yourself a priority without feeling guilty? I get it! It’s overwhelming... and guess what? The fact that you need support... doesn’t make you a bad mom! That’s why I created the Real Happy Mom Podcast. The Real Happy Mom Podcast is a weekly show for busy working moms juggling it all. Each week, I’m bringing you inspirational stories from real-life moms as well as interviews with leading experts in various fields to encourage you on your motherhood journey and help you live an authentic life. In this podcast we will not only navigate motherhood by talking about time management, gentle parenting and self-care. But we will also go deep into topics you may have been afraid to explore, like intimacy with your spouse, communication with your kids, health, wellness and frustrations that come through inner confidence as a mom and wife. Mom life is beautiful and fun, but it's also challenging and messy at times. Motherhood is the one job that we don't get proper training or an instruction manual when we come home with our new baby. Every day is on the job training. I’m here to help you navigate motherhood that's true to you so that you can be a real happy mom. Welcome to the Real Happy Mom Podcast, mom friend! You are in the right place. Learn -- www.realhappymom.com | Connect -- www.instagram.com/realhappymom | Work With Me - www.realhappymom.com/work-with-me

I’ve been so overwhelmed that I avoided something as simple as checking my email, then told myself “see, I don’t have time.” In this episode, I’m breaking down the three lies your brain loves to tell you when you’re overloaded: “I don’t have time,” “I’ll do it later,” and “If I can’t do it perfect, it’s not worth doing.” I walk you through what to say back to those thoughts so you can stop freezing and start moving again. And I’m sharing simple, real-life actions (like 10-minute timers, micro-scheduling, and “done is better” baselines) that help you get out of overwhelm without piling on more pressure.

Mentioned in this episode:
👉 Organized Living Summit (Free Ticket): https://212--hobbyscool.thrivecart.com/2026-organized-living-summit-2/?ref=podcast

👉 Weekly Reset: the.realhappymom.com/weekly-reset

3 Takeaways from this episode:

  1. When you think “I don’t have time,” you might not have time for the full version—but you probably have time for the small version.
  2. “I’ll do it later” creates the pile-up effect—either do the 2-minute thing now or name exactly when “later” is.
  3. Perfectionism keeps you stuck—choose a baseline that counts, because progress is the goal (not perfect).

I used to say “I don’t have time,” but what I really meant was “I’m tapped out.” In this episode, I’m breaking down the difference between time and energy, because we can’t plan our lives like we’re robots. I’ll help you notice your natural energy patterns (high, medium, low) and show you how to match the right tasks to the right energy. And when your energy is on the floor, I’ll give you a simple Plan B so you can still get something done without the guilt.

3 Takeaways from this episode:

  1. Your problem usually isn’t “no time”—it’s “no energy,” and planning works better when it matches your real capacity.
  2. Put high-brain tasks (planning, budgeting, meal planning, decluttering decisions) in your high-energy windows and save autopilot tasks for low-energy moments.
  3. A Plan B routine keeps you consistent when you’re tired—because doing the small version still counts.

I know what it feels like to start a routine, feel proud… and then one day life happens and everything falls apart. In this episode, I’m breaking down the most common “consistency killers” that make routines hard to stick to—especially for busy working moms. I’ll show you how to redesign your routines so they work in real life, not just in a perfect week. And I’ll walk you through simple, practical fixes you can start using right away so you can stop restarting from scratch.

3 Takeaways from this episode:

  1. Consistency isn’t about “more discipline”—it’s about designing routines that still work when life gets messy.
  2. The smaller your routine, the more likely you are to keep moving (a 10-minute version beats a perfect 90-minute plan).
  3. Your restart plan is part of the routine—pick a reset trigger so you don’t quit when you miss a day.

This episode started because my YouTube feed randomly turned into a whole finance channel, and it made me realize I’m 40… so compounding interest doesn’t have the same runway it did at 20. Then I heard one line about Jesus and leftovers that hit me right in the chest and made me look at all the “leftovers” I waste—not out of carelessness, but out of forgetting and not planning. That mindset shift led me straight to my orange tree situation and a full-on no-waste orange adventure that turned into real stewardship in real life. So today I’m sharing a simple Sunday Money Reset—five quick steps to help you pay attention, reduce the chaos, and stop waking up midweek wondering where your money went.

Mentioned in this episode:
👉 I Will Teach You to Be Rich (Ramit Sethi)

3 Takeaways from this episode:

  1. Stewardship isn’t about perfection—it’s about pausing long enough to ask, “How can I use what I already have?”
  2. A quick weekly reset (not a full budget) helps you catch surprises early so your week doesn’t get expensive by accident.
  3. Guardrails—especially around meals—protect your money and your energy because decision fatigue is real.

I’m walking you through a realistic weekly reset you can do in 30 minutes or less—because you don’t need a three-hour “get your whole life together” session to feel prepared. The point of this reset is to remove a little chaos so Monday doesn’t start with surprises and stress. I’m breaking it into five quick steps: clothes, meals, calendar, one hotspot tidy, and a small recharge for you. And if you’re running on fumes, I’m also giving you a 10-minute version that still keeps Monday from feeling like an ambush.

Mentioned in this episode:
👉 Sunday Prep Workbook Plus (Real Happy Mom)

3 Takeaways from this episode:

  1. Tiny decisions made ahead of time (like clothes and dinner) can save your sanity when your energy is low.
  2. You don’t have to “solve” the whole week—just notice the busy days and plan for a softer version of them.
  3. A reset that includes you (even five minutes) makes the whole week feel lighter.

Katie Kimball is here to talk about what teens actually need from us in this season and why the kitchen might be the best training ground for real life. We got into the two big inner needs teens are juggling: agency (choices and control) and answers (support when they’re stuck). Katie also broke down autonomy versus “ancestry,” aka why teens push away, but still need roots, connection, and family stories. We wrapped up with practical ways to motivate your teen to start cooking (without a power struggle) and how this one skill can give you back real time during the week.

Mentioned in this episode:
👉 Teens Cook Real Food (affiliate link)

👉 Raising Healthy Families

3 Takeaways from this episode:

  1. Teens crave agency (choices) but still want answers sometimes—your job is to balance both without taking over.
  2. The kitchen is a low-stakes place to practice resilience: problem solving, pivoting when things go wrong, and recovering from mistakes.
  3. Cooking builds independence and connection—food is a simple way to give teens autonomy while keeping them tied to family roots.

This week I’m talking about why so many of us start Monday feeling confident… and by Tuesday we’re already renegotiating everything. What you actually need isn’t a stricter schedule. It’s a realistic plan that works when life is doing what life does. The real reason your week falls apart isn’t laziness or lack of discipline… it’s decision fatigue from making too many choices in real time. So I’m walking you through three simple decisions to make before the week starts so you can stop carrying the mental load all day.

Mentioned in this episode:
👉 Sunday Prep Workbook+: https://go.realhappymom.com/sunday-prep-workbook-special/

3 Takeaways from this episode:

  1. The goal isn’t a perfect plan — it’s a plan that still works when your week gets messy.
  2. Decision fatigue is what makes you feel behind, so move the biggest decisions earlier before the week starts.
  3. A “realistic plan” can take 10 minutes: scan your calendar, decide dinners, and pick your top three priorities.

I’m talking to you today if your energy is low and you feel like you can only do the bare minimum. I saw it loud and clear in my weekly email poll—almost 39% of moms said low energy is what throws their week off first. So instead of trying to force a “perfect” week, I’m sharing a simple baseline called a minimum viable week. It’s built on three anchors that hold your week up even when you’re running on fumes.

Mentioned in this episode:
👉 Sunday Prep Workbook Plus: https://go.realhappymom.com/sunday-prep-workbook-special/

3 Takeaways from this episode:

  1. When your energy is low, you don’t need a complicated plan—you need a simple baseline that keeps your week from collapsing.
  2. A minimum viable week uses three anchors (prep, hotspot, refill) so you can plan softer instead of pushing harder.
  3. Your refill anchor matters because your week won’t feel steady if you’re trying to run it with zero fuel.

This episode came straight from a real conversation I had with my mom after our early family Christmas—when she asked what was next for me, career-wise. I told her clearly that I don’t want to open my own practice, even if that’s what people expect “the next step” to be. What I want right now looks quiet and honestly a little “boring” on paper: I want to be present with my family, soak up my kids while they’re still here with me, and take care of myself. If you’re heading into 2026 feeling pressure to climb, prove, or impress, I want you to know it’s okay if your dreams are quieter in this season.

3 Takeaways from this episode:

  1. You don’t have to chase the “next step” just because it looks like the logical move to other people.
  2. A quiet season is still a meaningful season—especially when it centers your family and your wellbeing.
  3. The only goals that matter are the ones you feel good about, not the ones that impress others.

This week, I’m helping you lighten the mental load before Monday even gets here by closing some of those “open tabs” in your brain. I’m sharing why overwhelm usually isn’t from having too much to do, but from having too much that hasn’t been decided or released. I’m walking you through three simple buckets—not this week, not mine to carry, and not necessary—so you can stop dragging extra weight into the new week. And I’m reminding you that you don’t need a brand-new you… you just need a few clear decisions that give you room to breathe.

Mentioned in this episode:
Sunday Prep Workbook+: https://www.realhappymom.com/reset

3 Takeaways from this episode:

  1. Overwhelm grows when you keep “unfinished decisions” open—closing loops is often more powerful than adding another to-do.
  2. If it’s important but not urgent, put it in not this week so you can protect your energy for what actually matters now.
  3. When something feels loud and urgent, pause and ask: “Is this truly necessary, or is it just noise?”

Ever look up and wonder, where did the time go? In this episode, I share a bite-size training from the Let’s Get More Time Virtual Summit on the three biggest time sucks—email, social media, and TV—and how to take your time back fast.

If you’re ready to gain hours back each week without complicated systems, this one’s for you.

This past weekend, I helped a friend move—and what I noticed reminded me so much of what happens during Christmas. She had duplicates of almost everything because she hadn’t taken inventory first. And don’t we do the same during the holidays? We buy more, do more, and pile on more—only to feel exhausted by December 25th.

In this episode, I’m sharing four simple holiday resets that will help you cut the chaos, protect what matters most, and actually enjoy Christmas this year.

Mentioned in this episode:

Ever have one of those nights where you’re staring at the fridge with no clue what to make for dinner, and no energy left to figure it out? You’re not alone. In this episode of the Real Happy Mom Podcast, we're talking about what to do when motivation has left the building and you're running on fumes.

Tune in to learn simple strategies that will help you get things done without burning out.

Mentioned in this episode:
👉 The Get Stuff Done Toolkit – The plug-and-play system to help busy moms go from frazzled to focused without overcomplicating life.
👉 Join the waitlist for Confident Mom Life – A 6-week guided experience to help you build simple, flexible routines that actually stick.

3 Takeaways from this episode:

  1. Motivation is flaky—systems aren't.
    Relying on motivation is like waiting on a friend who only shows up when it's fun. Systems and routines are what help you follow through even when you're wiped out.
  2. You don’t need more energy—you need fewer decisions.
    Decision fatigue is real, and routines that cut down the number of choices you make can make your day feel so much easier.
  3. Simple = sustainable.
    The best routines aren’t fancy—they’re the ones that work when you’re not at your best. Think plug-and-play meals, 3-step evening wind-downs, and breathing room built into your day.

Ever feel like you're just not a "routines person"? Before you blame yourself, listen in. In this episode of the Real Happy Mom Podcast, we’re breaking down five reasons why your routines aren’t sticking—and none of them have to do with your motivation or willpower. If you’ve ever tried someone else’s perfect system and felt like a failure, this is your reminder: it’s not you, it’s the routine.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Why most routines are built for ideal conditions (and what to do instead).
  • How to build a routine that fits your energy, season, and lifestyle.
  • Why flexibility—not perfection—is the secret to consistency.

3 Takeaways:

  1. Make It Fit Real Life:
    Routines built on someone else’s perfect day won’t survive real-life interruptions. Yours should bend with your season, not break at the first challenge.
  2. Keep It Simple + Flexible:
    Small, repeatable routines—like a 10-minute tidy or 3-step morning reset—are more effective than rigid, overwhelming systems.
  3. You’re Not the Problem—The System Might Be:
    You don’t need more discipline—you need tools that support you, not stress you out. A Trello board or 3 go-to dinners might be your real secret weapon.

Working from home might sound like a dream—until the laundry piles up, snack breaks turn into scroll sessions, and you end the day wondering what you even got done. In this episode of Operation May Reset, we’re talking about how to sharpen your focus and stay productive at home without burning out or micromanaging your entire day.

Whether you're navigating remote work with little ones nearby or just trying to stay on top of your to-do list in a quiet house, these three easy focus boosters will help you feel more accomplished and less frazzled. We’ll talk about how to create a simple work-start ritual, use the “next 3 rule,” and build natural stop points into your day—so you can actually get things done and feel good about it.

3 Takeaways from this Episode:

  1. Focus starts with a simple ritual. A short, consistent "start work" habit helps signal your brain that it's time to focus—so you waste less time getting in the zone.
  2. You only need to know the next three things. The “Next 3 Rule” cuts down overwhelm and helps you move through your day with clarity and purpose.
  3. Build in natural breaks. Stop points keep you motivated, give your brain breathing room, and prevent burnout—especially when you're working from home without structure.

If your brain is constantly running through grocery lists, appointments, school events, and “Did I switch the laundry?” reminders… you’re not alone. In this episode, I’m sharing how Trello has become my go-to tool for organizing all the moving parts of mom life—from meal planning and home tasks to managing your week and actually remembering your goals.

Whether you're brand new to Trello or gave it a shot and didn’t get the hype (same here the first few times), I’ll walk you through why this tool works so well for busy moms and how to use it in a way that finally sticks. Plus, I’ll share a free Trello template to get you started today—no overwhelm required.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Moms struggle to stay organized because of mental overload, scattered tools, and trying to remember it all
  2. Trello is visual, flexible, customizable, and perfect for real-life mom schedules (plus—it’s actually fun to use!)
  3. You only need one board to get started—focus on what’s stressing you out most and build from there

Key Takeaways:

  1. RESET = Repeat Weekly, Enjoy the process, Short & Sweet, Equip yourself, Team effort – the core of a realistic weekly reset.
  2. A weekly reset helps reduce mental clutter, clear chaos, and prep your mindset and home life for the week ahead.

If your evenings feel like chaos—dishes everywhere, kids bouncing off the walls, and your brain completely fried—you’re not alone. I’ve been there too, and in this episode, I’m sharing the evening wind down routine that helped me shift from total disaster zone to calm and collected.

Evening routines aren’t just for doing more—they’re for setting the tone for the next day. In this episode, I break down what makes a great wind down routine, why it doesn’t have to be long or complicated, and how to customize it for your season of motherhood. Whether you’ve got toddlers, teens, or you work shift hours, you’ll find realistic tips to help you recharge and finally feel ready for the next day.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Evening routines set the tone for tomorrow—it’s less about doing more and more about unwinding with intention.
  2. A good wind down routine should be flexible, short, calming, and include something just for you—even if it’s just five minutes.
  3. There’s no perfect routine—your routine should evolve based on your life season, energy level, and needs.

Stress is a natural part of life, but staying in a constant state of stress? That’s a recipe for burnout. In this episode, I share a powerful lesson I learned after dealing with disappointment and seeking advice from my coach. She introduced me to the concept of the stress cycle (from the book Burnout by Amelia and Emily Nagoski) and how important it is to complete it—otherwise, your body holds onto stress in unhealthy ways.

If you’ve been feeling weighed down, this episode will help you process those emotions and let them go so you can show up as your best self.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Feel your feelings – Don’t suppress them. Acknowledging emotions is the first step to moving through stress.
  2. Complete the stress cycle – Your body needs an action to signal that stress is over (e.g., exercise, laughter, crying, deep breathing).
  3. Community and connection help – Hugs, conversations, and support from loved ones signal to your brain that you’re safe and okay.

Motherhood is a whirlwind, and it’s easy to feel like you’re constantly running on autopilot. But what if you could shift from just getting through the day to truly experiencing it? In this episode, I chat with Monica, a mom, entrepreneur, and host of mother-and-child retreats, about what it really means to be intentional in motherhood. We talk about breaking free from societal expectations, creating space for presence, and simple ways to infuse intentionality into your daily life—even when things feel overwhelming. If you’ve ever wanted to slow down and savor motherhood instead of rushing through it, this episode is for you.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Start Small: Being intentional doesn’t mean overhauling your life—it’s about simple shifts like putting your phone away for 10 minutes and fully engaging with your kids.
  2. Nature as a Reset: Stepping outside, whether for a walk, watching the sunrise, or exploring with your child, can help you disconnect from distractions and be more present.
  3. Intentional Living Can Be Virtual Too: If an in-person retreat isn’t in the cards, there are ways to cultivate intentionality at home, including Monica’s Intentional Living for Mothers Audio Event happening February 3-7.

Happy New Year! I'm so excited to be back on the podcast after taking some time away. Life has been lifeing, but I'm here and ready to help you tackle the big goals you've set for this year.

In this episode, I share an amazing insight I learned from the book 10x is Easier Than 2x by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy. If you've been feeling like you're not making enough progress toward your goals—or even like you're falling behind—this episode is for you.

I'll walk you through a fresh way to measure your success that’s empowering, motivating, and rooted in progress, not perfection. Whether you're decluttering your kitchen, building a business, or connecting more with your kids, this mindset shift can change the way you see yourself and your achievements.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Focusing solely on future goals can feel like chasing the horizon—always out of reach.
  2. Measuring success by looking backward helps you recognize and celebrate your progress.
  3. A backward-focused mindset reduces stress, comparison, and self-doubt, keeping you motivated to move forward.

In this episode, I lay bare my journey with alcohol, a problem that emerged during the challenging times brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic. As the world shut down, I found it difficult to cope, and the people around me suggested turning to alcohol as a means of relaxation. What started innocently enough with a single miniature moscato quickly escalated into a daily habit, hidden from my husband and spiraling out of control.

I share the struggle of justifying my actions and hiding my growing dependence on alcohol, not just from others but from myself. The turning point came when I realized the toll it was taking on my health and well-being. That's when I sought help and found a lifeline in my guest, Colleen.

Colleen joins us to share her own experience and expertise in breaking the cycle of alcohol and unhealthy coping mechanisms. Together, we delve into the impact these habits can have on productivity, confidence, and overall well-being. Colleen offers insights into how she helped me transform my relationship with alcohol and implement positive changes.

So, if you've ever grappled with alcohol or other remedies that promise to make you feel better but end up doing more harm than good, this episode is for you.

Have you ever felt like there's a constant battle between you and your kids?

Like, asking them to pick up the toys only leads to meltdowns and attitudes out of nowhere. All we want is to walk around without injuring ourselves the Legos left on the floor.

I used to think that I was struggling with my kid's meltdowns because it seemed to always be a full moon. Then I learned about power struggles.

Kids have a basic need for power. When they feel like they don't have power, that is when the struggle begins.

But giving them power doesn't have to mean giving up your power as a parent.

There are ways where both you and your child can feel in control.

Check out this episode with my guest Lindsay to learn why power struggles happen and 3 tips to overcome them.

ABOUT LINDSAY
Lindsay helps moms get their kids to listen without yelling, threats, or bribes. She likes to think of herself as your future parenting BFF - someone who is supportive, encouraging, helpful, and understands what it's like to parent in the real world.

In the hustle and bustle of life, our once cherished friendships often find themselves buried beneath the responsibilities of motherhood. While this phenomenon affects both men and women, there's something truly magical about how women rekindle their friendships.

Friendships among women have been celebrated for centuries, from the legendary bonds of Thelma and Louise to the fearless quartet of Ryan, Sasha, Lisa, and Dina, Girls Trip, or Annie and Lillian in Bridesmaids.

These stories, while fictional, echo a universal truth: female friendships are an essential part of life, a source of support, laughter, and wisdom.

However, as time passes, our lives inevitably change. We move to different cities, pursue varied careers, and embark on different life journeys. Amidst these transitions, friendships can sometimes take a backseat, leaving us yearning to reconnect with the friends who once knew us best.

In this episode, we’ll delve into the art of women rekindling their friendships, exploring their profound impact on their lives. So, this episode is for you whether you're a woman contemplating reaching out to a long-lost friend or simply curious about the magic of rekindling.

Many of us have been raised and grown up to see those around us give themselves selfishly every day and sometimes even make themselves responsible for other's happiness. As a result, many moms feel guilty when they are putting themselves first and not others.

At one time or another, you probably felt guilty when you made yourself a priority. You know, when you want to get out of the house without your kids and have some alone time, but your kids begin to cry and beg and plead for you not to go.

Or maybe you felt it when you're playing with your kids and felt guilty about being bored to have to read that book again or help build that blog tower.

There's a way to prioritize yourself without feeling guilty. My guest today, Kate House, shows us how to do just that. Kate is a coach and the podcast host of Live by Design, where she helps women get out of overwhelm and get unstuck so that they can live by design and not by default.

In this episode, you'll learn how to prioritize self-care daily so that your mind, body, and soul are nourished, all by doing small habits and routines.

If you haven't already listened to Episode 211, with Michaela, you've got to check it out!

But before you do, I had this quick clip from the conversation. And this actual clip was actually deleted only because it didn't really fit with what was going on with the conversation we had in Episode 211.

Michaela and I had an instant connection over a TV show called Instant Mom. Instant Mom became one of my favorite shows over the summertime because it was really, really fun to watch. And it has Tia Mowry, one of my favorite actors, who I love back when she was in Sister Sister.

One thing that I've noticed is that, especially in a lot of the Disney movies, stepmoms have a bad rap. As a result, being a stepmom isn't something that we would aspire to be.

I wanted to drop this quick clip on what Mikayla had to share about Instant Mom.

Summertime comes wanting to try out some new hobbies, indoors or outdoors.

I'm pretty sure the kids have probably asked you to go ahead and buy a canoe or new rackets to play racquetball or tennis. Or maybe they wanted to do some knitting or build a Lego castle. And while all that sounds like a lot of fun, it comes with a price. And it comes with space. You have to have somewhere to put all the stuff that comes with these hobbies. So what are you going to do?

How are you going to try out some new hobbies but not have the house be a cluttered mess? That's what we're going to talk about in this episode.

One thing that gets me during the summertime is how much the kids are on their devices. I feel like the kids are on their devices SO much more than usual. Do you notice this too?

It's really concerning, mainly when they use apps and communicate with others like Instagram and Facebook. It's scary to think about what some of the kids may be exposed to.

So how can we keep our kids safe online?

How can we do better about monitoring what they're consuming?

How can we ensure they are not being bullied or not getting into content that may be getting them depressed or causing them other mental health issues?

These are all questions that I know you have and have the answers to, thanks to my guest, Cathy. If you're like me and you want to keep your child safe online this summer, this episode is for you.

Do you feel like there is never enough time in the day to get things done? It doesn't help when you hear gurus tell you to prioritize it and you will get it done. You have so many priorities, and it can get pretty stressful trying to sort things out as a mom. My guest, Cara Harvey, is here to help.

In this episode, we unpack some of the topics in her new book, The 15-Minute Formula. This book is what you need because it is a productivity book geared toward moms. Typically, most productivity books are written by men, which is excellent, but they don't consider many of the struggles of us moms.

In addition, Cara shares her story and how she even got started with A Purpose Driven Mom. And then what led her to write the book, The 15-Minute Formula. She also talked about priorities with us and how to use micro priorities, which was something new that I learned from her. And then, lastly, we talked about seasons. How can we be more aligned in our life by knowing what season we're in and setting things up so that we can be more aligned with the season we're in versus trying to jam-pack our days, weeks, and months with things and burn ourselves out? So if you are looking for different ways of being more productive, you must listen to this episode.

In Bethany Frankel's book Business Is Personal, she says … Sometimes a red light is a green light. Sometimes saying no to something allows us to say yes to something else.

How many times have said yes or committed to something only to find out it takes more time and energy than your expected? When you compound this with other commitments, you end up stressed, burned out, resentful, and overwhelmed.

In this episode, I will share a simple way to get out of the habit of saying yes to everyone so that you have more time and less stress.

I was talking to a mom that was completely overwhelmed and was almost in tears with all of the demands she had in her life.

She wanted some relief because she hadn’t had a break for weeks. Then after she realized that she was the only one talking, she asked me about what I do for work and what the kids are into.

After telling her that I work full time, I’m a reservist in the Navy, run Real Happy Mom, and started a business with my husband, she looked at me like a unicorn and asked me how I do it all.

The truth is … I don’t. In this episode, I brought my friend, Alicia Cohen, to share how doing it all is robbing us of freedom and happiness. Plus, how we can shift out of doing it all.

I love routines. I know that I wouldn’t be able to handle life well without them. But when I talk to some moms about routines, I get eye rolls and comments like, “routines don’t work for me.” Or “Routines are too restrictive. I like to be free.”

I know you want motherhood to be easier. And maybe you have tried to implement some new routines, but they didn't stick.

So why aren’t routines working for you? There are a couple of reasons why I think this is the case. Check out this episode to learn why your routines aren't sticking and what to do about it.

As a mom, taking care of yourself can seem impossible when you have little ones. Especially as a new mom, all your focus goes to your baby, and me-time is nonexistent. But taking care of yourself is essential and is more than taking a shower. Although taking a shower is helpful to unwind and necessary for basic hygiene, several self-care ideas have been shared in pop culture that isn’t what you actually need. Pedicures, massages, and weekends away are great but aren’t going to help you long-term. In this episode, I share some not-so-sexy self-care ideas to help you flourish and be your best self. If you are ready to find out what these six ideas are, check out the entire episode.

Do you feel there is never enough time to get things done in the day? It doesn't help when you hear gurus tell you just make it a priority and you will get it done. You have so many priorities, and it can get pretty stressful trying to sort things out as a mom. My guest, Cara Harvey, is here to help.

In this episode, we unpack some of the topics mentioned in her new book called The 15 Minute Formula. This book is what you need because it is a productivity book geared toward moms. Typically, most productivity books are written by men, which they're great, but they don't take into account a lot of the struggles of us moms.

In addition, Cara shares her story and how she even started with A Purpose Driven Mom. And then what led her to write the book, The 15-Minute Formula. She also talked about priorities with us and how to use micro priorities, which was something new that I learned from her. And then lastly, we talked about seasons and how we can be more aligned in our life by knowing what season we're in and setting things up so that we can be more in alignment with the season we're in versus trying to jam-pack our days, weeks and months with things and burn ourselves out. So if you are looking for ways to be more productive, you have to listen to this episode.

One thing that gets me during the summertime is how much the kids are on their devices. I feel like the kids are on their devices SO much more than usual. Do you notice this too?

It's really concerning, especially when they're using apps and communicating with other people like Instagram and Facebook. It's scary to think about the things that some of the kids may be exposed to.

So how can we keep our kids safe online?

How can we do better about monitoring what they're consuming?

How can we make sure that they are not being bullied or not getting into content that may be getting them depressed or causing them other mental health issues?

These are all questions that I know you have and have the answers to, thanks to my guest, Cathy. If you're like me and you want to keep your child safe online this summer, this episode is for you.

One of the things that I absolutely love about the summertime is going to the beach. And whenever I go to the beach, I will catch myself looking around and seeing some other women and their cute little swimsuits and thinking, "Oh, well, I don't look as good as she doesn't my swimsuit." Or "I wish I could wear a swimsuit like that, but my stomach would look terrible in that."

Then I start going down this rabbit hole of comparing my body to everyone else's. And you've probably been there and have gotten into this comparison trap, especially when it comes to your bodies. But I want you to know, first of all, that you're not alone.

Today, I'm going to share with you some tips on how we can do better about this comparison game with my guest. We are breaking down some of the ways that we can escape the body comparison trap this summer. So if you're like me, and you want to do better about this comparison trap, stay tuned to this episode.

Summertime comes wanting to try out some new hobbies, whether it is indoors or outdoors.

I'm pretty sure the kids have probably asked you to go ahead and buy a canoe or buy some new rackets to play racquetball or tennis. Or maybe they wanted to do some knitting or build a Lego castle. And while all of that sounds like a whole lot of fun, it comes with a price. And it comes with space. You have to have somewhere to put all of the stuff that comes with these hobbies. So what are you going to do?

How are you going to try out some new hobbies, but not have the house be a cluttered mess? That's what we're going to talk about in this episode.

It's summertime! Summertime usually brings about summer vacation. And when I think about summer vacation, I think about food, or is it just me?

But don't get me wrong, when I think about eating on vacation I am also a little concerned that I will enjoy the food too much and it will show on my waistline.

And so how can we do better about enjoying our foods, but at the same time, eating things that are nutritious, and going to feel us and taste good? Because we want to enjoy a vacation. But we don't want to enjoy it so much that we ended up gaining a bunch of weight.

In this episode, you're going to learn how you can eat healthy while you're on vacation. So if you're like me, and you need some help, check out this episode.

53% of adults are financially anxious. That is a statistic that makes me nervous. It also makes me uneasy to think that my kids could grow up to be a part of the statistic.

The truth is we can teach our kids financial literacy so that they know how to budget and have emergency savings for a rainy day. But where do you start if you have no clue?

Start with this episode.

In this episode, my guest breaks things down to be the simplest form when it comes to talking to our kids about money. My guest is Dr. Caroline Clerisme who is known for helping doctors get a game plan and pay off their student loan debt. In this episode, she shares:

  • How we can start to talk to our kids about money
  • How we can start to introduce those conversations, especially if we're not confident in finances.
  • The difference between financial freedom and generational wealth, and why it's so important for us to be working towards both of those things.

So if you're like me and want to get a bit better at having these conversations with your little ones, stay tuned to this episode.
ABOUT CAROLINE
Dr. Caroline Clerisme is a general dentist, wife, mommy, and author. She is also the founder of Doctors out of Debt, a company that helps doctors get out of debt and create generational wealth. Dr. Clerisme received her doctorate degree from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine.

I will be honest with you. One of my kids really tests my patience. I am usually a pretty cool mom until the big emotions start to come up.

I used to have so many thoughts when I struggle with my son's big emotions like .... is something wrong with me? Is it something wrong with him? What am I missing or not doing? Seriously, how do we go from everything's fine to you're throwing a massive tantrum and rolling gon the floor?

It wasn't until I talked to returning guest Rachel Bailey that I realized that my son has these big emotions that I have to help him regulate. In today's episode, Rachel shares:

  • how to help your kids with their big emotions
  • tips that you can use at the moment, as well as some proactive things that you can do to help prevent those big emotions from taking over.
  • an example with and breaks down ways to better understand our kids

If you need help with your child's big emotions, this episode is for you.

Raising awesome kids is one of the hardest jobs in the world. Partly because it is the only job that you don't get an instruction manual when you start. And because every child is different and requires different approaches and needs.

As result, every family is different. But you can still have a family success story without doing things the way everyone else does. That is what this episode is all about. In this episode with my guest Nellie, she shares:

  • Her story of how she even got started by helping other families with gaining that success in their families
  • How we can start to develop our own family fingerprint and create a manual for our own families
  • How we can begin to use the self-discipline leadership with our kids so that they can begin to grow into awesome human beings that are happy and joyful
  • About discipline, which is something that I know there can be a lot of controversy about but she brings some really great points

If you want to improve, strengthen or even start developing your family success story check out this episode.

Feeling super busy? Like there is no time to breathe or pee? Check out this episode with my guest Alicia. She shares how you can identify the season that you are in your life so that you can get rid of the busyness.

Because I'll be honest with you, there are many times that I go through different seasons in life and think, Oh, if I just push a little harder, or if I just keep going and just grind it out, everything will eventually work itself out. And all I do is set myself up for burnout, exhaustion, and just setting myself up to be really crabby and not a nice person to be around.

Once you're able to understand what season you're in, you'll be able to adjust and shift. And you'll notice that things will flow a lot easier in your life.

So if you are like me are feeling like you just got a lot going on. And you're still just trying to like push through. Make sure that you listened to this episode with Alicia. We talk about what season we're in, as well as how we can begin to shift things when we identify the season that we're in. Then she gives us some things that we can think about so that we can begin to make things easier for ourselves so that we don't have to push ourselves to burnout.

ABOUT ALICIA
Alicia Cohen is the wife to a wonderful husband and the mom of two precious little ones. She is also a business owner and YouTuber.

Let's just be honest, as moms, it seems like we have a million and one things to do. And there never seems to be enough time. Especially time to do things that we enjoy unless we are very, very intentional about getting those things done.

My guest Alyssa shares how we can be more like her in finding time every day for herself. And she does it with multiple kids around. 5 kids to be exact! And yeah, she still has time for herself every single day.

I want you to hear how she does it and see if some of the things that she shared, you can begin to implement. I know a lot of times you can hear these stories and think, yeah, that's simple for you, but I have this going on. And yes, that's true. But hear her out and listen to some of the techniques that she uses to get things done in the house as well as make sure that she has time for herself as a busy mom. This will leave you with your sanity intact at the end of the day.

ABOUT ALYSSA
Alyssa is a minimalism junkie, God follower, introvert, and perpetual bookworm. (Oh, and mom of 5.) She has 11+ years’ experience balancing multiple kids while still getting time to recharge. This is why she specializes in simplifying life for introverted moms (aka your stuff, your sanity, and your schedule). Because afterwards? You get to go make a difference in the world (and enjoy your kids a heck of a lot more!).

I'll be honest with you, when I first hear the word meditation, I immediately think of someone sitting down, crisscross applesauce, on the floor, with their hands on the knees, closing their eyes, and probably humming.

But that's not at all what meditation really is. Many times we think, oh, no, I can't do meditation because it's supposed to look a certain way (and it looks weird). Or it's for a certain group of people.

But meditation is something that I have learned through my guest, Kelly, that has so many benefits and looks different for different people. My biggest takeaway from Kelly is that meditation helps me to realize that my thoughts are just thoughts.

A lot of times we think that the thoughts that pop into our mind are actual truth. In reality, it's not. Many times it's just little things firing off in your brain. It's not necessarily truth. Plus, meditation helps you be more productive. Ready to find out how? Check out the full episode to learn more.

ABOUT KELLY
Kelly Smith is a globally renowned yoga and meditation teacher, E-RYT 500 /YACEP, founder of Yoga For You, and host of the chart-topping Mindful in Minutes podcast and its spin-off, Meditation Mama.

Do you feel like there is never enough time in the day to get things done? It doesn't help when you hear gurus tell you just make it a priority and you will get it done. You have so many priorities and as a mom, it can get pretty stressful trying to sort things out. My guest, Cara Harvey, is here to help.

In this episode, we unpack some of the topics mentioned in her new book called The 15 Minute Formula. This book is what you need because it is a productivity book geared towards moms. Typically, most productivity books are written by men, which they're great, but they don't take into account a lot of the struggles of us moms.

In addition, Cara shares her story and how she even got started with A Purpose Driven Mom. And then what led her to write in the book, The 15 Minute Formula. She also talks about priorities with us, and how to use micro priorities, which was something new that I learned from her. And then lastly, we talked about seasons and how we can be more aligned in our life by knowing what season we're in, and actually setting things up so that we can be more in alignment with the season we're in versus trying to jam pack our days, weeks and months with things and just burn ourselves out. So if you are looking for some different ways of being more productive, you have to listen to this episode.

ABOUT CARA
Cara is a wife, mom to a 15-year-old stepson, 6-year-old daughter, 4-year-old son, and a woman of God. She works as a mom empowerment coach and her mission is to provide women with the tools, resources, and community to reach their goals, empower themselves, find their happiness, and live a life by design. She does this via her blog, podcast, virtual community groups, and e-courses that help women learn to balance their lives, finances, schedules, health, and themselves!

One thing that I have never been proud of in my life is my finances. In particular, the debt that I had accumulated since dental school. I literally would have a panic attack anytime I looked at my student loan balances. As a result, I stopped looking at them. It is silly when I think about it because I know that I could never get my student loans paid off in a reasonable amount of time if I didn't even know the balance.

After struggling alone I got a money coach that has changed my life forever. I met and started with working with Rho after seeing her own success with paying off her student loan debt in a short amount of time. Now that I have paid off my credit credits totaling over $20,000 before my goal of 9 months, I have to let you in on the secret.

In this episode, Rho and I are having a conversation about our journey together that lead to this milestone. The biggest thing that Rho helped me with was my mindset. Something we talk about extensively in this episode. In addition to tackling my mindset, Rho helped me to get a budget together to tackle my goals and ultimately helped me to pay off my credit card, plus one of my student loans all within a six-month period!

If you want to know the secret that Rho helped me unlock to pay off my credit cards fast, you have to check out this episode.

ABOUT RHO
Rho Thomas is an attorney and financial coach who believes that true wealth is having control of your time. She helps lawyers make intentional lifestyle and money decisions to regain control of their time, build wealth, and live the lives of freedom and choice they deserve. She has been featured in outlets such as Yahoo! Finance, Refinery29, and Mic and hosts the Wealthyesque podcast.

Communication is so important, especially when we are communicating with our kids. When our kids are little it seems like most of the time we get things right because of intuition. But what if your child could communicate with you clearly as young as 9 months old? I know it would make my life a whole lot easier.

In today's episode, we are talking all about using sign language to communicate with our children. This is something that I have grown a passion for only because, one, there are several patients of mine who are actually deaf or hard of hearing and use sign language. And, two, my son has a love for sign language because that is his preferred way of communicating.

In this episode, my guest Lauren shares:

  • How she got started learning signing language
  • How early we can start teaching our babies to sign language
  • What signs we should start teaching your babies when they are first learning sign language
  • Why we should use sign language to teach toddlers about their feelings
  • Resources to get you started learning sign language

ABOUT LAUREN
Lauren Barrett was born in New Jersey, grew up in West Virginia, went to college in Pennsylvania, and now lives and works in North Carolina. She graduated from Indiana University of Pennsylvania in 2011 with a degree in Deaf Education. She has her Master's in Reading Education.

  • How to get clarity on what your next career maybe

Blake shares gems that help you stop going to an unfulfilling job that leaves you burned out and exhausted. Check out the full episode to learn how.

ABOUT BLAKE
Blake Schofield is the Founder of Connections Illuminated, a mom of three & a former corporate executive who spent 18 years in Corporate America building, growing & turning around 8 & 9 figure businesses. Despite her success, Blake constantly found herself feeling unsettled, chasing the next job or promotion to "make it better" so she could finally do fulfilling work and be able to have the time she wanted to have a less stressful & more present family life. After two cross-country moves and increasing frustration that every job seemed to be more of the same, she finally realized that the career she was in no longer fit. Blake's personal journey through three career changes, years of seeking the right path for her life, overcoming the fear & doubt of forging a new path, & successfully building and running her own multi six-figure business is the basis of the work she does every day: helping other driven, heart-centered professional women, who are at a career crossroads, transition into more fulfilling work & have more time with their family without taking a big pay cut or starting over.

There is one game that I am sure that all moms have played. That game is the comparison game. You know when you look at another mom and think that she is better than you because she is skinner than you and makes perfect Pinterest-worthy lunches every day for her kids. Or maybe it is subtle, like when you're at work and think that Becky's house must be so much cleaner than yours because her desk is always organized. Those comparison thoughts mess with us all.

So what do you do when you are comparing and feel like you don't measure up?

First, listen to this episode with my guest Laurie from This ORGANIZED Life. She shares:

  • Her experience with why moms compare themselves and begin to feel like they don't measure up
  • Practical tips to help get unstuck when you feel like you don't measure up
  • Underlying issues that we may have when we feel like we don't measure up.

Are you ready to change the narrative and start feeling empowered? Listen to this episode now.

What do you do when the doctors tell you this is as much engagement as you will get from your child and he will never walk? Do you accept the doctor's report or find another way?

My guest, Dr. Chloe Weber, experienced this and decided not to accept that her son would never walk. Chloe shares her story with me and reminds me that we have an intuition that always knows best for our children as mothers.

In this episode, Chloe and I have a conversation about being an advocate for your child, no matter the cost. Chloe shares:

  • Her response was when the doctor told her, "this is as much engagement as you will get from Remy, and he will never walk."
  • How non-medical professionals approach their child's diagnosis
  • How she taught people around her about her son's diagnosis and dealt with their judgment
  • How to have a conversation with your child about kids with special needs without being awkward.

ABOUT CHLOE
Chloe is a Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese medicine, founder and CEO of Radical Roots herbs, and a solo mama to a 7-year-old boy named Remy. Chloe's son was diagnosed with a rare and debilitating genetic disorder at 2.5, and the two of them have been on a wild ride searching for answers and finding joy in unexpected places.

Happy New Year! I am wishing you an awesome and prosperous new year. Instead of talking about goals at the beginning of the year, I am switching it up.

I want to talk about something that we all deal with. From the board room to the home and in our relationships. The thing that I am talking about is stress. Stress pops up during almost any event or thought. Stress can be positive. The reason why I say this is because stress is what helps you deal with challenges and deadlines. But if stress is not managed well, stress can be detrimental to your health.

After dealing with stress in a positive way, I have come up with a four-step process to help with dealing with stress so that you don't lose your cool. Check out this episode with learning the four-step process so that you can put it into practice and manage your stress well this year.

Have you ever thought, "I might as well not exercise today since I ate all those cookies today." Or maybe you have thought "If I can't declutter my house, why start at all."

This is all or nothing thinking. When you view things as zero to 100. This type of thinking causes you to look at extremes and forget about options 1-99.

You can see this in trying to implement self-care, meal planning, stress coping and so many other areas of your life if you pay attention. So what's the problem with thinking like this?

It affects what we choose to do or not do, how we show up, and how we talk to ourselves.

This is why my guest, Shawna, is here to help us. In this episode we talk about:

  • What is this all or nothing mentality
  • How the all or nothing mentality can show up in our lives
  • What steps that we can take to shift the all or nothing mentality
  • How to be more intentional and pay attention to your thoughts and feelings daily

If you are ready to ditch the all-or-nothing mentality, check out this full episode.

Do you ever find yourself feeling chaotic and overwhelmed? Maybe it's time to implement some good routines. Routines help reduce stress, add structure, and predictability to your day. Routines allow less decision-making and allow you to think clearly and not be overwhelmed and stressed out. Think of routines as a comfy blanket, keeping you warm and cozy because you know what is coming, you feel more comfortable, you feel at ease. Plus, routines help you to bring your values to the forefront of your life. Check out this episode with the routine queen, Ashley, as she shares ways that you can implement routines and make them work for you.

ABOUT ASHLEYAshley Brown is a wife, mama of 2, and creator and owner of Routine and Things, which equips women to consistently live their happiest life one routine at a time.

Raise your hand if you could do better with delegating at home?

I'm raising my hand too. Many times I feel like that I can get it all done. But the truth is we need the help and support of those around us.

Through our conversation, you will learn that there are two things that hold us moms back from delegating. Then Whitnee debunks these myths and explains why we need to delegate, especially at home.

Then Whitnee shares her 5 step plan to help you delegate so that you can get more things checked off of your to-do list without having to do it all by yourself.

Sometimes getting up and getting started with the day is a challenge. The bed feels so good and you start to think about all of the things you have to do and decide to sleep for a few more minutes. Next thing you know, you've overslept and are late for work. This leads to a spiral that can send your day down into the dumps.

Having a productive day doesn't necessarily require you to wake up super early in the morning. But there are a few things that need to happen to ensure your day goes well and you tackle the to-do list.

I brought my friends and productivity fairy godmother, Holly Haynes to share her secrets of how she stays productive. As a wife and mom of twins that work full time AND have a full-time coaching business, I think she knows a thing or two that can help us out with our productivity.

In this episode Holly shares:

  • How to structure your day efficiently so that you actually are able to get what you need to be done without it being overwhelming.
  • Why you need a morning routine and what to include in your morning routine to help you have a productive day.
  • Her method to determining what you need to tackle first on your to-do list

If you need a little magic from the productivity fairy godmother, make sure to check out the full episode.

ABOUT HOLLYHolly helps female entrepreneurs take back control of their time with proven productivity techniques, systems, and structure to create a strategy that scales long term. An industry expert, host of the Crush the Rush Podcast and featured Thrive author with a 20-year business consulting background with Fortune 500 companies, Holly runs her strategic coaching business and the Crush the Rush planner company while raising her twin daughters with her husband in addition to working for a non-profit in Columbus, Ohio.

Being a boy mom is something special. I know that they need something a little bit different from me as their mom than they do with their dad. I read Monica Swanson's viral blog post, "What a Teenage Boy Needs Most from his Mom." Then it was clear.

Today, I wanted you to see what some of those things are if you are a boy mom like me. Monica shares with us five things that our boys need from us.

And if you haven't checked out that blog post already, there are actually 11 things that she shares but today we're going to focus on just five.

Want to know what they are? Check out the full episode to find out.

Raise your hand if you have gained some weight since the start of the pandemic. Raise your hand again if you are ready to lose some of that weight.

I have both hands up and a guest that is going to help with this and more.

Spoiler alert. The key to losing weight actually starts with self-care.

If there was one area that I could go back and time in and change in my life, it would be preparing for maternity leave when I had my first son. As a recent grad with student loans and no savings, taking 3-month maternity leave wasn't something that I could afford.

Unfortunately, the United States did not have a federal paid maternity leave like other countries like Estonia, Portugal, and New Zealand. As a new mom I wanted to be home with my baby, but the reality was I had to go back to work to make sure that my baby was provided for. The sad part is many moms experience this. I was able to take 6-week maternity leave, but I have heard of moms going back to work as soon as 2 weeks after having a baby.

Instead of wishing that I could go back and change those days, I want other expecting moms to know that you plan and prepare your ideal maternity leave. You don't have to rush back to work because you have to.

In today's episode, my guest Sue and Amy are going to help us learn how we can do just that. In this episode, Sue and Amy share:

  • What parental leave looks like in this country today
  • Where moms-to-be need to start to negotiate this major life and career transition
  • The top three things expecting parents taking parental leave should do to protect their current and future career
  • Things that parents should keep in mind after parental leave

If you are an expecting mom, dad, or know some that are, this episode is definitely for you. Check out the full episode to learn mom.

ABOUT AMY & SUE
Dr. Amy Beacom is the founder and CEO of the Center for Parental Leave Leadership, the first consultancy in the US to focus exclusively on parental leave. She consults with Fortune 100 companies, international organizations, working parents, and more to transform the way our companies and our country engage with the parental leave transition. She's the co-author of the Parental Leave Playbook, with Sue Campbell, who's the communications director for the Center for Parental Leave Leadership. They are both with us today.

My oldest, I call him my little Gary Vee, because homeboy only wants to do things that make him money.

He literally only gets motivated when I talk about giving him money for getting good grades at school.

I've had a bit of a challenge with finding ways to support him and his entrepreneurial spirit, as well as making sure that he takes care of what he needs to at school.

My guest Sherri is going to share some of her experiences on how we can better support our kids and their entrepreneurial ambition.

Sherri is the mother of Jake and Caroline, who are the creators of Fair Harbor. Fair Harbor is a clothing line that Sherri's kids created from their home. She has been with them when they first started the clothing line when they were still living at home. Sherri has supported her kids throughout the journey starting back in 2014.

And she has some tips and advice for moms who want to help support their kids but are trying not to be that annoying mom but also give their kids the support that they need with the highs and lows of entrepreneurship.

Mom of Jake and Caroline Danehy who started Fair Harbor Clothing. Also going to work in the new office as Manager of Office Happiness

Have you ever felt like there's a constant battle between you and your kids?

Like, asking them to pick up the toys only leads to meltdowns and attitudes out of nowhere. All we want is to walk around without injuring ourselves the Legos left on the floor.

I used to think that I was struggling with my kid's meltdowns because it seemed to always be a full moon. Then I learned about power struggles.

Kids have a basic need for power. When they feel like they don't have power, that is when the struggle begins.

But giving them power doesn't have to mean giving up your power as a parent.

There are ways where both you and your child can feel in control.

Check out this episode with my guest Lindsay to learn why power struggles happen and 3 tips to overcome them.

ABOUT LINDSAY
Lindsay helps moms get their kids to listen without yelling, threats, or bribes. She likes to think of herself as your future parenting BFF - someone who is supportive, encouraging, helpful, and understands what it's like to parent in the real world.

Have you ever thought about working from home, but you don't know where to start?

Maybe it's time to consider being a VA. A VA (virtual assistant) is someone who works independently to help clients from anything to email marketing to social media management and graphic design.

If you are looking for a way to work from home, check out this episode with Ester. She breaks down the skills needed to become a VA, how to tell the spammy jobs from the real ones, and how to establish their own VA business.

Listen to this episode to learn how you can start your VA business and work from home permanently.

ABOUT ESTER
Esther quit her corporate America job 6 years ago when she realized it wasn’t suitable for a military wife and Mom life. She started working from home as a virtual assistant and couldn’t believe this simple low entry-level virtual career was completely unknown by other military wives, Moms, or travel lovers.

After taking her agency to 6 figures, she’s helped over 4,000 women work online as virtual assistants around the world with her program 90 Day VA.

After living abroad as a full-time digital nomad for 3 years in Bali, Esther now lives in Asheville, NC with her 9-year-old son and veteran husband.

Sometimes getting up and getting started with the day is a challenge. The bed feels so good and you start to think about all of the things you have to do and decide to sleep for a few more minutes. Next thing you know, you've overslept and are late for work. This leads to a spiral that can send your day down into the dumps.

Having a productive day doesn't necessarily require you to wake up super early in the morning. But there are a few things that need to happen to ensure your day goes well and you tackle the to-do list.

I brought my friends and productivity fairy godmother, Holly Haynes to share her secrets of how she stays productive. As a wife and mom of twins that work full time AND have a full-time coaching business, I think she knows a thing or two that can help us out with our productivity.

In this episode Holly shares:

  • How to structure your day efficiently so that you actually are able to get what you need to be done without it being overwhelming.
  • Why you need a morning routine and what to include in your morning routine to help you have a productive day.
  • Her method to determining what you need to tackle first on your to-do list

If you need a little magic from the productivity fairy godmother, make sure to check out the full episode.

ABOUT HOLLYHolly helps female entrepreneurs take back control of their time with proven productivity techniques, systems, and structure to create a strategy that scales long term.

Let's be honest. Between work, kids, and the house you have a lot going on.

And it can feel super overwhelming. Especially when we don't feel like we are juggling all of the plates well.

Yes, stress is a normal part of life. But there comes a time when the stress is more than usual. And that is what to help you with today.

To help us with managing our stress I brought my guest, Whitney. In this episode, Whitney shares:

  • How we can check in with our bodies and pick up on those feelings when we're feeling a lot of stress
  • How we can do some inner work so that we can start developing ways that we can deal with our stress a lot better.
  • A four-step process for helping us with finding that balance and working through the stress. And you will be surprised because it is a very simple process.
  • Some in-the-moment things that we can do to help with dealing with stress.
  • How we can find ways to manage stress within the home so that we can develop strategies so that overall, the household is not overwhelming us.

So if this sounds like something that you could use, you definitely want to stay tuned and listen to this full episode.

Whitney helped me out a ton and I know she can help you as well.

ABOUT WHITNEYWhitney is a certified wellness and life coach, a birth doula, and a mom of 4. She coaches intentional women to look inward, listen to their body's natural communication, create space for processing, and inevitably show up in the present moment as the most authentic version of themselves.

Even though my kids are young, I feel like I have a teenager (or two) sometimes. Especially, when I'm talking to my oldest and he tells me I don't listen to him when I actually listen to everything he says. That stings.

My biggest fear is my kids grow up and don't want to talk to me about their problems, issues, or struggles. Honestly, I was beginning to feel like my 8-year-old wasn't opening up to me like he used to.

Whenever I feel like I am struggling with parenting or not getting through to my kids, I always reach out to moms who have been there and done that.

I reached out to a mother and grandmother that has over 30 years of experience with working with families for this problem. My friend Maria, from The Moms I know Podcast. In the latest episode of the podcast, Maria shares:

  • Practical tips for communicating with your teen
  • The best way to respond when your teenager or big kid opens up to you
  • When you should leave your child alone and when to intervene
  • Helpful advice on communication with your teenager

One big takeaway is when my kids are talking to me about their problems, I need to listen carefully and not make fun of them or laugh at their problems.

This seems simple, but it's a reminder that everyone wants to feel validated and not judged when they are opening up.

If you have a teenager (or big kid) that you need a little help with communication with, this episode is for you.

ABOUT MARIAMaria is an educator, mother, grandmother, and podcaster with over thirty years of experience in working with families. She is passionate about empowering moms to make conscious choices and supporting them to find joy and fulfillment in their parenting journey.

In health and fitness, you hear a lot about getting your mind and body into shape. But we don't always talk about the spirit or the soul.

We need all three parts (mind, body, and spirit) to be in alignment so that we can really show up and be awesome in all aspects of our lives.

I've been thinking about how to have more balance in all three parts and I know that there's one part that I am missing out on. And that is just spending more time reading the Bible as a Christian woman. Plus, having that one on one time so that I can really like deepen my faith.

I know that this isn't a struggle that is just unique to me. So I brought my friend Brittany on to help with this.

In this episode, Brittany shares a statistic that says that 59% of Americans want to read the Bible more. But there's just this block that is preventing a lot of people from doing that.

So in this episode, Brittany is going to share with us:

  • Some of the reasons why women struggle with reading the Bible consistently
  • Some strategies or routines that we can do to help with reading the Bible more
  • How to create a routine that we can truly enjoy, and actually start to fall back in love with God's word

If you are one of those people that Brittany identified in the 59% group, check out this episode.

ABOUT BRITTANYBrittany Ann is an author, speaker, and founder of EquippingGodlyWomen.com, a popular Christian-living website dedicated to helping women be “all in” in faith and family. Brittany is the author of "Fall in Love with God's Word: Practical Strategies for Busy Women" and the creator of the 21-Day Bible Reading Challenge, a free challenge to help Christian women make regular Bible reading a priority.

Raise your hand if you could do better with delegating at home?

I'm raising my hand too. Many times I feel like that I can get it all done. But the truth is we need the help and support of those around us.

Through our conversation, you will learn that there are two things that hold us moms back from delegating. Then Whitnee debunks these myths and explains why we need to delegate, especially at home.

Then Whitnee shares her 5 step plan to help you delegate so that you can get more things checked off of your to-do list without having to do it all by yourself.

Hot flashes are something that no one really looks forward to.

But the truth is, transitioning into menopause doesn't have to include hot flashes or any of the other symptoms you may have overheard other women talking about.

Surprised? I know I was.

I thought hot flashes, mood swings, and shorter cycles were a right of passage to menopause.

Then I met Tania and she shared that the transition to menopause can be smooth and easy.

In this episode Tania shares:

  • What is menopause and perimenopause
  • The common symptoms of menopause and perimenopause

When you hear the word self-care do you roll your eyes?

For a while, I was the same way because the images that I saw about self-care looked like spa days and luxurious bubble baths.

Then I learned what self-care was really about and things changed. My guest, Shayna and Tracey, talk about a new way of looking at self-care in this episode.

And in today's episode, we talk about:

  • How Shana and Tracy got started with a Pump and Dump Show
  • A few things that they learned from getting the show started.
  • The importance of asking for help.
  • The importance of self-care and why they prefer the term self-preservation instead.
  • Letting go a mom guilt
  • Some really funny things that they find in motherhood that you can laugh at and not take yourself so seriously

Check out this full episode to learn more about self-preservation and get a few laughs in.

Raise your hand if you would rather do anything else other than sending an email to your email list?

I used to feel the same way until I found Kate Doster. Kate is the host of the podcast Inbox Besties that helps coaches, bloggers, and course creators with list building, email marketing, funnels, and passive income products.

In this episode Kate shares:

  • her story getting fired and later becoming a mompreneur
  • tips for selling using email without feeling sleazy
  • what's a freebie and how to use it to not only build your email list but ultimately make money
  • how she built a team and the question to ask to determine where you need help in your business

If you're ready to take your business to the next level or you want to do better with email marketing, Kate is your girl. And this is the episode that will help with that.

ABOUT KATEKate Doster is the host of the Inbox Besties Podcast, creator of the Love Your List 2.0 email marketing mega course, and is dangerously obsessed with helping ethical entrepreneurs carve out their slice of the interwebs by wooing the hearts (and wallets) open of their small but mighty audiences thanks to fun email marketing and Easy Yes mini-offers.

She believes you don’t need to bleed the alphabet or be a dirty rotten spam face to write emails that jolt subscribers into taking action, gobbling up your paid offers like candy… or kale if that’s your thing.

Let's be honest, being a mom is a lot of fun. But there are some times when it is very challenging. And you may even struggle with the feeling like you are not a good mom and you're missing your kids up. But the truth is, you're awesome. And you are not messing your kids up.

I brought my friend Sherri to have this conversation about a couple of things. First, what can we do to relieve the pressure off ourselves of trying to be a really awesome mom and raising amazing kids?

Then we talk a little bit about picking battles with our kids and what things should we really focus on when it comes to raising our kids. Sherri shares some things can she let go of and allowed her kids to do, but didn't necessarily agree with them.

And she shares a lot of her life experiences because she now has three grown men that she has raised that are all married and have their own kids.

My hope is that this episode is really going to encourage you.

ABOUT SHERISheri Miter is a visionary strategist who loves helping women discover their God-giving calling and turn that calling into a business! She’s the host of the Uncharted Entrepreneurs podcast where she helps high achievers navigate a freedom-driven business & life. As a wife, mom, and gramma Sheri’s philosophy is “Life is Short, enjoy the Journey”!

Raise your hand if you gained a few pounds during the pandemic?

You're not alone because I've got both hands raised.

The problem is I know (and you know) what to do to lose weight. But why is it so hard?

I asked my guest, Emily, this question.

The truth is there are so many simple things that we can do to lose weight in small pockets of time.

In this episode, Emily shares

  • Simple activities to do in small pockets of time to help with losing weight
  • How to track your progress, especially when you are not seeing any results on the scale
  • Different types of hunger and how to pay attention to the right one so that you don't end up eating when you're not actually hungry
  • What to do when you don't see any results

Do you ever find yourself feeling chaotic and overwhelmed? Maybe it's time to implement some good routines. Routines help reduce stress, add structure, and predictability to your day. Routines allow less decision-making and allow you to think clearly and not overwhelmed and stressed out. Think of routines as a comfy blanket, keeping you warm and cozy because you know what is coming, you feel more comfortable, you feel at ease. Plus, routines help you to bring your values to the forefront of your life. Check out this episode with the routine queen, Ashley, as she shares ways that you can implement routines and make them work for you.

ABOUT ASHLEYAshley Brown is a wife, mama of 2, and creator and owner of Routine and Things, which equips women to consistently live their happiest life one routine at a time.

One thing that we're not taught much about is grief.

I honestly, avoid the feeling.

But after talking to Quantrilla on the latest episode of the podcast, I see that it is a normal response.

Grief doesn't only happen when you lose a loved one. But it can also happen when you lose a job, have been given a terminal diagnosis, or a natural disaster destroys your home.

As much as I avoid the topic of grief, I felt some relief and gain more understanding and an appreciation for grief. In this episode, Quantrilla talks about:

  • Her personal experiences with grief
  • What it means to grieve well and how to grieve well
  • Red flags to look for when someone is not grieving well
  • How to find healing when grieving

After listening to this episode again I was smiling and crying because I was able to learn how to sit down with grief and not run away from it.

Listen to the full episode and learn how to grieve well and know it's okay to grieve.

ABOUT QUANTRILLAQuantrilla Ard, Ph.D., is a recent transplant to the Atlanta area along with her husband and three littles. A passionate creative at heart, she has answered the call to encourage women in all stages of life and of various backgrounds through empathy, transparency, and love. She is a faith-based personal and spiritual development writer and speaker who believes in the power of collective strength, community, and fellowship. She is an advocate for social justice with a focus on Black maternal and infant health and mortality. You will find her wherever people are sharing stories of triumph.

How many times have you scrambled to figure out what's for dinner only to put something together that wasn't so great or just decided to order take out?

I know this has happened too many times. Many times, not because of a lack of preparation, but a lack of time.

One thing that we busy moms need is meals that look like they came from the Pioneer Woman or Barefoot Contessa, but took on 30 minutes tops to create.

So how do you do this?

First, don't panic. Listen to this episode with my friend, Andrea from Adventures of Feeding My Fam.

In this episode, Andrea shares her 5 step process of getting meals planned for the week without stress.

Is it just me, or have you wondered what's the deal with these Enneagram numbers?

You hear people talking and saying things like, "Yeah, I'm a 3 wing right."

I have heard so many people talk about the Enneagram test and then throw around their numbers. But what does it all mean?

Basically, the Enneagram is a personality test that is based on 9 different personality types. The beauty of the Enneagram personality test is it is a simple (but could be complicated) way to understand yourself and others.

Because this is not my area of expertise, I brought my guest Becky to help us see how we can use the Enneagram personality test to understand ourselves and improve our relationships.

The biggest financial lesson I learned in 2020 is how important it is to have healthy emergency savings that you can live off of for at least 3 months.

After seeing many people being furloughed and laid off, it is important to have your finances in order so that you don't have to take another big hit. But where do you start if you have no idea?

Don't worry. I have my friend and money coach, Rho, here to help.

Rho has an impressive financial journey and is working to help more women achieve financial independence. In this episode, we talk about:

  • Why having more money is not the answers to financial problems
  • Tips for budgeting so that you can do more with your money
  • Bills that you can negotiate to get a better rate or price on
  • Tips for getting your spouse on board with your financial goals

ABOUT RHO
Rho Thomas is an attorney and financial coach who believes that true wealth is having control of your time. She helps lawyers make intentional lifestyle and money decisions to regain control of their time, build wealth, and live the lives of freedom and choice they deserve. She has been featured in outlets such as Yahoo! Finance, Refinery29, and Mic and hosts the Wealthyesque podcast, which explores how lawyers can achieve lifestyle freedom by reframing their mindset and managing their money to achieve financial independence.

As a busy mom, it is easy to get into wearing leggings and a messy bun for day to day wear.

But one thing that I have found is when you look good, you begin to feel good. When you feel good, you exude confidence.

I know you want to wear more than jeans and leggings when you are out running errands. But where do you even start?

Don't worry, because I've got my friend Bee that is going to help us go from frumpy mom to put stylish and put together mom.

In this episode Bee shares:

  • Easy ways that we can look more put together without doing much
  • Where you can start to refresh your wardrobe and have clothes that you actually wear and feel good in
  • Things to keep in mind when shopping for new clothes

Do you ever feel like life is coming at you like you’re playing a perpetual game of whack a mole?

Something comes up over here and you whack it down, something comes up over there and you whack it down.

Before you know it you're spending days, weeks, months, and sometimes years waiting for the next thing to whack.

In this episode, my guest, Tracy, shares her FAB framework to get out of the rut and begin living a vision-driven life.

The first step is to focus on. Focus on you and who are at your core.

If you are having trouble with this, as yourself these questions:
What do you know for sure?
What are your absolutes?

The second step is to align. Align your thoughts with the woman you wish to become.

You have to believe in yourself and your vision. Be careful with I am statements and what you put behind I am.

The last step is to become. Become her in your everyday life, acting as if now.

Celebrate small wins and notice what you are noticing.

Listen to the full episode here to learn who to begin living a vision-driven life.

ABOUT TRACY
Tracy has been there too and with her experience as a mom, a former teacher, a certified Life Mastery Consultant, and a yogi with over 25 years of personal experience on the mat she helps busy moms regain control of their lives and get their joy back.

Do you seem to find that moms are being praised for the more that they struggle and give into the hot mess mom culture? You know. The mom that is always struggling with the messy bun and the same outfit on from yesterday that fuels off lots of coffee or wine.

The truth is motherhood is a real journey and you can enjoy the ups and downs. Just like a rollercoaster. Instead of giving in to the hot mess mom culture, do the opposite. Be the mom that shows up for her family, gets things done, and takes care of herself.

In this episode, my guest Elyse talks about

  • What is the hot mess mom culture all about
  • The 3 steps to getting out of the hot mess mom culture
  • Things that you can do day to day to keep yourself from being a hot mess.

She is passionate about empowering women to simplify their life and home so they can walk in faith and be present for their families.

What does it seem so difficult and awkward to make friends as adults?!

Finding a group of moms or a community that you connect with doesn't have to be.

Have you ever thought, "I might as well not exercise today since I ate all those cookies today." Or maybe you have thought "If I can't declutter my house, why start at all."

This is all or nothing thinking. When you view things as zero to 100. This type of thinking causes you to look at extremes and forget about options 1-99.

You can see this in trying to implement self-care, meal planning, stress coping and so many other areas of your life if you pay attention. So what's the problem with thinking like this?

It affects what we choose to do or not do, how we show up, and how we talk to ourselves.

This is why my guest, Shawna, is here to help us. In this episode we talk about:

  • What is this all or nothing mentality
  • How the all or nothing mentality can show up in our lives
  • What steps that we can take to shift the all or nothing mentality
  • How to be more intentional and pay attention to your thoughts and feelings daily

If you are ready to ditch the all or nothing mentality, check out this full episode.

Shawna is a trained life coach who teaches moms how to simplify, slow down and show up. She is a mom of three and wants to uplift other moms to enjoy their life and live it ON PURPOSE

Do you ever feel like your period is a curse?

I know I did! Not until I learned that being a woman and having a menstrual cycle is our superpower. It may sound crazy but stay with me.

Once you understand that our menstrual cycle is broken up into periods of extreme productivity you will see why I say it is a superpower.

Trying to operate at 100% every day during the month is a sure way to set yourself up from exhaustion and burnout. Listen to this episode with my guest Dorit to see how understanding and managing the energetics of your menstrual cycle will help to increase your productivity and profits while decreasing how much you work.

In this episode with talk about:

  • The things that we need to understand about our bodies to begin to unlock this superpower.
  • The different stages of our cycle.
  • What is happening to our body during each stage of our menstrual cycle
  • What foods to eat to support us and sustain our energy during each stage of our cycle.

If you are ready to unlock your superpower and learn how to work with your cycle to prevent burn out and fatigue, this episode is for you.

Through her work and podcast, Confident, Energized and Sexy Mama she empowers women to embrace their menstrual cycles as a framework to create flow in their homes, align energetically and ditch the millennia-old story that women are destined to struggle, burnout and sacrifice their health, relationships and careers if they want to ‘have it all’.

When Dorit isn’t being a typical mom by schlepping her kids to and from, you’ll find her curled up on the couch with her husband talking long hours about life or singing to his guitar.

So your kids are asking for a dog again, but you are not really a dog lover. I totally get it!

Let's be honest. Having a dog is a huge responsibility. It's almost like having a baby with the amount of care and attention you have to give a dog.

I have a secret for you. I don't like dogs. But my friend N.E. Colby is helping with spreading the love for animals with my kids WITHOUT getting a puppy.

In this episode we talk about:

  • How N.E. Colby's family has a love and curiosity for animals (even though her husband was attacked by a dog when he was younger)
  • Places to go or visit to introduce your kids to animals and grow their for them
  • Her book series and the inspiration behind it.

Colby and her Husband have been able to pass along their love of animals to their children. Taking trips to Zoo’s every year for birthdays and just because days, while talking about the care required of little creatures that cannot care for themselves. Knowing the importance of teaching children from a young age that caring for living things other than themselves will have an important impact on all relationships in their future.

News Flash! Your kids don't do want you to say, they do what you do.

My guest Victoria had this realization when raising her kids and almost treating them like a project. Meaning that she thought she had to get her kids to be awesome in school and raise them to be awesome adults that would eventually leave and go off to college.

The problem with this is kids have their own personalities and trajectories for life. The things that we push our kids to do may not be what they actually want to do. So instead of trying to raise our kids to be perfect versions of ourselves, Victoria has another method ... model the behavior and things that you want your kids to do.

This includes having fun. Your kids want to see you happy! Check out this episode to learn how to transform the way you see parenting so that you can improve your motherhood

Are you feeling burned out?

Burn out from work is a real thing that many people suffer from. Some statistics say that up to 70% of people in the workforce have experienced burn out. Then we look at moms and that number may be even higher.

You can have success without burning yourself out on the hamster wheel of life. It first starts with you defining what success looks like to you instead of living out what others consider successful.

Listen to this episode as we talk about:

➡️How to be present and let go of distractions
➡️Why it is important to play and engage
➡️Practices to keep you grateful
➡️How and why it is important to release inside of holding things in

I know that 2020 has been a year for the history books.

As a mother, it has been even more challenging with schools going virtual, being with your kids while working from home, and don't forget the hard conversations about race in the US.

With everything that has happened I know right now, more than ever, we need a little pep talk to get us ready for the new year.

I brought my coach and friend, Jessica, to give us the pep talk that we need to be ready to tackle our goals and take better care of ourselves.

In this episode we talk about:

➡️ What it means to press pause on your dreams

➡️ The difference between consistency and frequency

➡️ How life is going to happen and taking life and your goals one day at a time

➡️ Creating an ideal day

➡️ How to determine what is a priority that you need to focus on today

➡️ Why you need to have fun and something fun to look forward to

Work-life balance is something that we hear about often. I feel like there are two camps. One that believes that you can achieve work-life balance and the other that thinks that it doesn't exist because there is no such thing is balanced because you can give equal amounts of time to the different parts of your life.

Which camp are you in? This is the question that I asked my guest, Angie. Because let's be honest we secretly want when we are feeling out of wack at home or work.

In this episode we talk about:

  • How Angie got started as a coach
  • Angie's thoughts on work-life balance and if it really exist
  • What is means to operate on your highest level of integrity
  • Why we avoid doing things ... especially the things we know we need to do

ABOUT ANGIE
Angie Robertson, Senior Coach, HG Life Coaching: As a former attorney, Angie is familiar with what it takes to leap and pursue the career of one’s dreams. She is highly experienced in coaching people through career transitions and navigating the balance of work, personal life, parenting, and relationships.

"Why won't my kids listen to me."
"I wish my kids would listen and do what I ask for once!"
"Why I am constantly repeating myself to my kids to clean up. It's like I'm talking to myself"

If every catch yourself saying these things or have these thoughts you have to listen to this episode.

My guest is Katherine Sellery, a three-time TEDx speaker, who has taught thousands of parents in a Conscious Parenting Revolution for resilient, considerate, centered, and empowered kids who know their inner voice and honor it. Katherine has been coaching parents, children, and executives on conscious communication for over 16 years.

In this episode she shares:

  • How to use a petri dish approach to our family when it comes to trying new things.
  • What is an authoritative parenting style and why is not as effective as you think.
  • How authoritative parenting leads to the 3 R's that are secondary problems that you don't want to deal with.
  • How to use a collaborative approach with your children.
  • What is means to actively listen.
  • How to teach our kids to be considerate.

After listening to this episode you will be clear on how to better parent and make your child feel heard. And ultimately improve your relationship with your kids so that they feel comfortable talking to you about their problems and fears.

Do you ever feel like you have a million things to do and you don't know where to start? Or your to-do list is a mile long and you don't have enough time to get everything done?

It's time to check your priorities. In this episode my guest, LaWann is going to help us get our priorities in check so that we are no longer wasting time on things that don't truly matter.

In this episode LaWann shares:

  • What it means to have priorities.
  • How to determine your priorities.
  • What you need to focus on now versus what you can work on later.
  • The biggest time-waster that prevents you from getting tasks done.
  • How to make time for yourself and make yourself a priority.
  • What self-care really looks like.

LaWann is a Productivity and Success Strategist who helps moms master their mindset and own their time so they can make money moves. She is the Creator and Host of the More Than A Mother podcast where she empowers moms to own their identity outside of motherhood and I am so glad that she is a guest on the Real Happy Mom Podcast.

Getting the kids to help with the chores first starts with mindset. We have to go from being willing to pick up behind everyone to teaching our kids we don’t work for them and we are not the maid. Most of the time moms don’t want to put up with the attitudes and the temper tantrums and think that they will be able to get it done faster themselves anyway. This is a trap in the name of saving time.

Check out this episode to learn how this mom of 10 kids gets her kids to do chores without complaining. She has even taught hundreds of other moms how to get their kids on board with chores so that moms don't have to be the glorified maid in the house.

If you are struggling with trying to get it all done with limited time. Or maybe you are frazzled and overwhelmed trying to keep all of the plates of life spinning at the same, it's time to look at how you spend your time. In particular, with time blocking.

Time blocking is scheduled flexibility. Which means you have a plan. Because when you are working from home and have a lot going on, instead of choosing to be reactive and feel defeated because you haven’t gotten anything done, you can be proactive.

In this episode, my guest, Stefanie Gass, shares the magic of time blocking and how to make it work for your home and business.

My guest on this episode is a Certified Postpartum Doula in Boise, Idaho.

She specialized in postpartum support after she saw a gap in maternity care (from her own experience and those around her). Her passion is to support parents that are unnecessarily struggling after the baby comes home through educational workshops, support groups, and hands-on guidance.

In this episode, we talk about why new moms are a challenge by trusting their mommy instincts. Plus, steps to being more in tune and trusting your instincts.

We also talk about being able to identify strong emotions and know where they are coming from. If you are a new mom or a seasoned mom that could use a little help with trusting your instincts and a dose of inspiration, check out this episode.

Burnout is common and affects adults between the ages of 25-44. As a working mom burnout can happen quickly with all of the demands at work and at home.

I talked to a doctor that knows all about burnout from experience.
In this episode we talk about:

  • Things that help with burnout and tip the balance back
  • You have to figure out where your passion is and say no to the things that are not your passion.
  • Be smart and intentional on where you want to go.
  • Having a hobby or activity that gives you an outlet outside of your career.

Are you feeling burned out, stressed, worried all the time, or losing sleep? Maybe its time to check your boundaries. If you don’t have firm boundaries at work and home, it’s easy for people to get over on you and leave you drained and stretched thin.

In this episode, my guest Rachel shares that everyone is trying to get their needs met. But this doesn’t mean that you should give up yours. It’s okay to want your needs and values.

As moms, we tend to get oppressed in our own space. With people stealing our ideas, taking our time, and trying to convince us that we need to be nicer, smile more, and be kinder.

On top of that, there’s this societal pressure to sacrifice everything for your kids and be there any time they need us. Which is not true or fair. We can’t be available all the time because we will get burned out.

This is why boundaries are so important. We have to learn to say no and have firm boundaries. Check out this episode to get tips for maintaining boundaries at work and at home so that you can avoid burn out and unnecessary stress.

When you have a baby there are so many emotions going on. Then you get home and you are waking up every two to three hours to feed or change the baby. It doesn’t take long to feel exhausted with a new baby.

What if I told you that there is someone that could help you get your baby to sleep through the night for twelve hours? Sounds crazy, right?

When I first heard about my guest Hanneke (pronounced Hanukkah) and how she was able to accomplish this, I knew I had to get her on the podcast to help moms everywhere with this universal problem.

In this episode, Hanneke shares tips for getting your baby to sleep through the night. Plus, the foundation that needs to happen before including a feeding routine, morning, and evening routine. And if you have a baby that goes to daycare or is in the care of someone else during the day, she shares how you can get your baby to sleep through the night even when you are not in control of what happens during the day.

Then she challenges with questions to ask ourselves so that we stay motivated and committed to exercising. I will be honest, negative self-talk is what I struggle with, and the number one reason why I don’t exercise as often as I should. The good news is Lyn shares how I can get it under control. So go ahead and listen to this podcast now. You will thank me later.

Eating healthy doesn’t have to be difficult. Let’s be honest, the food industry makes it challenging. With all of the labels with misleading words like “all-natural” or “natural flavors” that make you think that you are eating something healthy until you read in the ingredient list.

In this episode, I talked to Sarah from Fast Food Healing foods and how to make it easy for busy working moms to put healthy nutritious meals on the table that don’t take much prep.

Having been a busy mom with little ones at one time, she gives practical advice on meals that we prepare that are low maintenance and nutritious so you don’t have to go to the line at McDonald’s.

She shared why we need to get rid of white sugar and white flour from our diets. And what removing white sugar and white flour from our diets can do for our health. Especially for kids with behavioral issues.

Check out this episode so that you can feed your kids to health and enjoy happy, healthy kids.

Do you ever find yourself struggling with an abundance of toys or trying to figure out activities for your child?

It's easy to get overwhelmed, but the truth is it doesn't have to be difficult.

In this episode of the Real Happy Mom Podcast my guest shows how to enjoy your child more by doing less.

Listen to the full episode above or check the previously published post below.

About Jenny Jenny is a journalist and mother that teaches about parenting from a different angle.

Jenny has taken time to research and find parenting practices that allow parents and children to have more peace.

By looking at history Jenny has found basic principles for parenting that allow parents to do less and enjoy their child more.

Evolution of parenting Humans have evolved over the last 200,000 years without toys, without any stores that had toys, or Pinterest that had activities for kiddos.

We have thrived without toys.

So when did this need for toys start?

When Jenny looks back on her research she finds that at the start of the industrial revolution is when toys became available.

Jenny also notes that happiness started to decrease at the same time as well.

This is also around the time that many parenting books came out that encouraged self-soothing and the thought that children need to be ignored so that you don’t spoil them.

And so in place of that, we actually stopped honoring the most important thing that a child needs, which is a secure attachment to their parent or to their primary caregiver.

And we started to give them toys and materials in place of that, which is the lousiest replacement.

An Alternative Parenting Style Jenny has been working hard to let parents know that you don’t have to stress yourself with purchasing toys and finding activities for your kids.

I recently had a conversation with my sister before I got ready to take a vacation. During the conversation, I told my sister how I really didn't want to take time off from work for financial reasons.

My sister pretty much told me to calm down and get over myself. And that I needed to take a break because I was doing too much.

At first, I was a little offended about her telling me that I was doing too much. But I quickly realized she was right. I really was doing too much.

There are a few signs that I started to pick up on to realize that I was doing too much and needed a break. And I want to share these signs with you so that you can quickly identify when it is time to take a pause.
