• 264. How To Survive Errands With Little Kids (and Actually Enjoy Leaving the House)

  Hi mama, Today, we’re tackling one of the universal challenges of motherhood… getting out of the house with little kids without losing your sanity. Remember those days when leaving for a “quick errand” required 47 steps, two outfit changes, and a miracle? This one’s for you. As the holidays approach, errands multiply faster than the glitter in your living room. Between shopping, concerts, cookie swaps, and school events, it’s a lot. But here’s the thing: with a few intentional systems and mindset shifts, you can make it easier… and dare I say, enjoyable. Inside This Episode, We’ll Talk About: ✔️ How to simplify packing with a grab-and-go “mini bag” ✔️ The magic of “entertainment packs” for different ages ✔️ Snack strategies (because snacks = sanity) ✔️ The “load the car first” trick every mom needs to know ✔️ Car kits, toy rules, and timing tips that make errands smoother ✔️ Mindset shifts that help you laugh through the chaos instead of crying through it Because here’s the truth… some days will still be messy. Someone will spill, cry, or refuse to bend their legs into the car seat (we’ve all been there). But with a plan, a snack stash, and a sense of humor, you can survive even the most chaotic Target run.

• 263. Mindset Reset: Take It One Moment At A Time

  Hi Mamas, Today’s episode is a gentle reminder to slow down and breathe… because sometimes, the bravest thing you can do is just handle this moment. 💭 “Take it all one moment at a time. You don’t have to have the whole day figured out to handle this minute.” — Morgan Harper Nichols We all know those mornings…  the chaos, the missing shoes, the endless lists running through your head before your first sip of coffee. Especially during the holiday season, the mental load feels heavier than ever. But here’s your reminder: you don’t need to have it all together. You just need to handle what’s in front of you. Inside This Episode, We’ll Talk About: ✔️ How to stop spiraling when your to-do list feels endless ✔️ The power of focusing on one “next right thing” ✔️ Why presence creates peace (even in the chaos) ✔️ How to reframe your morning overwhelm into mindfulness ✔️ Small mindset shifts to ease the holiday stress and reclaim calm Because peace doesn’t come from controlling everything… it comes from learning to breathe through the moments that matter most. 💛 This Week’s Mindset Challenge: When overwhelm hits… whether it’s during the morning rush, the holiday hustle, or that endless mental checklist…  pause and say to yourself: ✨ “I don’t need to handle the whole day. I just need to handle this moment.” ✨ Then do the next small thing… and celebrate it. You’re not behind, you’re human. You’re doing your best…and that’s more than enough. 📣 Come share how this episode helped you with us inside our free Facebook community Work-Life Balance For Working Moms… because your joy might just inspire another mom to find hers too. ⭐ If this episode gave you a little boost, please take a moment to leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify… your reviews help more amazing moms find the show! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 📌 Grab Your Freebies! 🔥 Boundaries Made Simple… guilt-free scripts, mindset shifts, and a “guilt-detox” checklist 💖 Goal Manifesting Planner … map your dreams with bite-size prompts 🥗 Stress Free Weeknight Dinners Guide… reclaim your evenings (and your sanity) 📱 Tech Time-Out for Moms Guide… ditch the scroll and win back precious minutes 🧹 Spring Cleaning Checklist… because clutter steals time, too 🎅Christmas Planning Guide… yes, early prep counts as self-care Want to connect with other amazing moms?

• 261. Mindset Reset: Give What You Can Even If It's Only Kindness

  Hi Mamas, We’re stepping into the cozy magic of the holiday season… the time for gratitude, giving, and a little extra grace (for others and ourselves). Between the chaos of school events, endless to-do lists, and “Who’s bringing dessert?” group texts, it’s easy to forget what this season is really about: kindness. This week, we’re centering our hearts around this powerful quote from Anne Frank: 💭 “You can always give something, even if it is only kindness.” Because kindness doesn’t cost a dime… and yet, it has the power to transform how we experience the holidays. In this episode, we’ll explore how to model kindness for our kids, find calm amidst chaos, and make this season more meaningful without adding anything to our to-do list.   💬 Inside This Episode, We’ll Talk About: ✔️ How to slow down and find gratitude in the simplest moments ✔️ Why kindness is the most meaningful gift you can give ✔️ Ways to teach your kids to give back without spending money ✔️ Small daily acts of kindness that shift your family’s energy ✔️ How choosing kindness (even toward yourself) makes the holidays lighter 💛 This Week’s Mindset Challenge: Every day this week, find one small way to “give something.” It could be your time, your patience, your smile, or your grace. ✨ Compliment a tired mom at pickup. ✨ Thank a delivery driver. ✨ Let your kids see you forgive yourself out loud. ✨ Pause before reacting when stress hits. Kindness multiplies… and it always finds its way back to you. 💫 📣 Join the Conversation: I’d love to hear what you’re doing this week to give kindness!

• 260. How Self-Awareness Can Transform Your Life as a Working Mom: Better Relationships, More Patience, and a Happier Home

  Hi Mamas, Ever notice how your mood can shift the whole energy in your home? One snippy email at work… one traffic jam… one long day…and suddenly everyone feels it. But what if you could catch those moments before they spiral? That’s what today’s episode is all about: self-awareness… the quiet superpower that helps you show up with more patience, presence, and peace. In this episode, Kerri gets real about her own wake-up call (spoiler: it involved her mom, sister, and a tough dose of honesty), and how that moment completely shifted how she approaches stress, work, marriage, and motherhood. You’ll learn: ✨ What self-awareness really means (and what it’s not) ✨ How to pause and check in with your emotions before they spill over ✨ Why “mirror moments” are the secret to stronger relationships ✨ How small shifts… like journaling, mindful transitions, and deep breathing… can change the tone of your entire day ✨ Why being self-aware makes you not just a better mom, but a happier one Kerri also shares her favorite real-life practices for catching negative energy before it spreads, plus how she’s learning (in progress!) to bring more light into every room she walks into. Challenge of the Week: Pause once today and ask yourself: 1️⃣ How am I feeling right now? 2️⃣ How is this affecting how I’m showing up? 3️⃣ What’s one small shift I can make in this moment? Then, write down what you notice. The goal isn’t perfection… it’s presence. 💫 💛 Feeling encouraged by today’s episode? 👉 Share it with a friend, leave a quick review, or DM me on Instagram @mom.wife.career.life …your messages truly mean the world to me. 🌟 📣 I’d love to hear what shift you are making this week!
