The Life Coach for Working Moms Podcast

You finally have the flexibility you wanted... so why does it feel harder than ever to get anything done? In this episode, I'm joined by Brina, a working mom and member of the Beyond Balance group, who shares how she navigates a full-time remote role, a partner with an unpredictable travel schedule, and the ever-changing needs of her son.   We talk about the invisible expectations working moms place on themselves, the myth of the "normal week," and how Brina shifted from frustration to flow by building systems that help her get things done and still have time for her family. From scheduling weekends with intention to making invisible work visible—at home and at work—this conversation is full of practical wisdom and deep validation.   To learn how to get things done with the time that you have as a busy, working mom, register for my upcoming free class - Plan It, Do It, Done: 3 Simple Steps to Finally Feel on Top of Work & Life.   Enrollment for Beyond Balance is opening soon.

Have you ever thought that this is just how it is to be a working mom? That you're tired, stressed, and always one step behind. You're not alone if you have. It's a belief that's pretty widespread. But what if that's just a lie that's keeping you stuck?   In this episode, I'm calling out the quiet resignation so many working moms carry—the belief that feeling behind, overwhelmed, and constantly in catch-up mode is just part of the job. I'm sharing the real reason this mindset is so dangerous, how it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, and what's actually possible when you stop accepting "this is just how it is" as truth.   If you've ever wondered, "Is this really it?"—this one's for you.   ➡️ Plus, you can learn how to get out of catch-up mode for good in my upcoming free class Plan It, Do It, Done—designed to help working moms finally feel on top of things without burning out.
