140. Mindset Reset: You Can’t Pour from an Empty Cup: Why Self-Care Isn’t Selfish

Hi mamas,
In this week’s episode, we’re talking about a quote you’ve probably heard me mention before: “You can’t pour from an empty cup.” As working moms, we’re always juggling a million things—work, kids, school schedules, activities, and let’s not forget everything going on at home. It’s so easy to fall into the trap of constantly giving without ever stopping to refill our own cups. But here’s the hard truth: if we keep pouring without taking care of ourselves, we’ll burn out.
💖 My challenge for you this week mamas, each day, pick one way to refill your cup… one way to care for yourself—one thing that’s just for you. Then, at the end of the week, take a moment to reflect on how it felt. Did it make a difference in your mood, your energy, or your patience? Did you notice anything shifting, even if just a little bit?
I'd love to hear one thing you picked… head on over to our Facebook community Work-Life Balance For Working Moms and tell us all about it so we can help you prepare and so that you can help inspire other moms, just like you. If you don't already follow the show, take a second and hit that follow button.

138. Mindset Reset: Don't Get So Busy Making A Living That You Forget To Make A Life

Hi mamas!
It's so easy to get wrapped up in the daily hustle—juggling work, meetings, school drop-offs, pickups, and that never-ending to-do list—that we lose sight of why we're doing it all in the first place. But here's the thing: we're not just working to get by. We're working to create a life that’s filled with purpose, love, and real connection. In this episode, we’re diving into into this quote by Dolly Parton: “Don't Get So Busy Making A Living That You Forget To Make A Life.”
💖 My my challenge for you this week mamas, I want you to pick one thing each day that helps you remember why you’re working so hard in the first place. It can be something simple. Maybe it’s taking a break from emails to sit down and play with your kids, or maybe it’s stepping outside for a few minutes and taking in some fresh air just for yourself. Whatever it is, let it be something that’s just about making life a little bit sweeter, a little more connected. At the end of the week, take a few minutes to think about how it felt to make that time—did it change how you saw your days? Did it bring a little more joy, or a little more peace?
I'd love to hear one thing you picked… head on over to our Facebook community Work-Life Balance For Working Moms and tell us all about it so we can help you prepare and so that you can help inspire other moms, just like you.

136. Mindset Reset: Fail to Prepare, Prepare to Fail - Planning that Work Trip for Working Moms

Hi mamas!
This working mom is headed to Cincinnati for work next week, which is the inspiration to this week’s topic… how to prepare for a work trip as a working mom and we're starting with breaking down this week's quote: "By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail." by Benjamin Franklin.
💖 My my challenge for you this week mamas, is to take some time to create your very own work trip checklist. Break it down into three sections—family prep, work prep, and self-care prep. Under each section, write down specific things you need to do to prepare yourself and your family for your upcoming work trip.
I'd love to hear what’s the next trip you have planned… head on over to our Facebook community Work-Life Balance For Working Moms and tell us all about it so we can help you prepare and so that you can help inspire other moms, just like you.

133. Mindset Reset: Your Body CAN Do It! Finding Time For Fitness In Your Day As A Working Mom

Hi mamas!
In this episode, we continue our deep dive into overcoming mom guilt and creating time for self-care. This week, we're focusing on fitness—a priority that often gets pushed to the bottom of our to-do lists. If you’ve ever told yourself you don’t have the time or energy for exercise, you’re not alone. I’ve been guilty of it, too. But today’s quote, “Your body can do it, it’s time to convince your mind,” is a powerful reminder that the real challenge isn’t your schedule—it’s your mindset.
Join me as I share tips on how to shift your perspective and start fitting fitness into your life, even if it’s just for 10 minutes a day. I’ll discuss the importance of letting go of perfection, acknowledging mom guilt, and focusing on what you can do.
💖 My challenge for you this week mamas is… Work on convincing your mind that you CAN do it. Commit to a micro-goal. Start with something small but consistent and spend some time visualizing your success… like fitting into those jeans again!
I'd love to hear what micro goal that you picked head on over to our Facebook community Work-Life Balance For Working Moms and tell us all about it so we can help keep you accountable and so that you can help inspire other moms, just like you.
