349. Why Moms Burn Out Every September And How To Avoid It25 août 202600:08:42

Hey Mama, 

Does September ever feel like someone suddenly hit the fast-forward button on life? 

One minute you're enjoying slower summer mornings, and the next you're juggling school schedules, sports practices, homework, work deadlines, permission slips, teacher emails, and somehow trying to remember what you're making for dinner. 

In today's episode, I'm sharing why I believe so many moms burn out every September—and more importantly, what we can do to prevent it. 

This back-to-school season looks a little different for my family. We're dropping Ashley off at college on the exact same day that Kaylee and Michael head back to school, making this one of the biggest seasons of change we've experienced as a family. Between the emotions of watching my oldest leave the nest, adjusting our routines, and realizing my youngest is beginning his last year of middle school, I've been reminded that September isn't just busy—it's emotional. 

In this episode, we're talking about: 

  • Why September can feel more overwhelming than any other month  
  • The invisible mental load moms carry during back-to-school season  
  • Why saying "yes" to everything leads to burnout  
  • Simple ways to simplify your routines and protect your time  
  • Why every activity doesn't deserve a "yes"  
  • How creating more margin can help your family feel calmer and more connected  

My hope is that this episode reminds you that you don't have to do it all to be an amazing mom. Sometimes the best thing we can do for ourselves—and our families—is give ourselves permission to slow down, simplify, and focus on what matters most.

348. Working Mom Mindset: Overwhelmed? Here's Why You Don't Have To Do It All24 août 202600:05:53

Hi Mamas, 

Have you ever felt like asking for help meant you were somehow failing? 

Like if you weren't doing all the cooking, cleaning, planning, remembering, organizing, and managing, then maybe you weren't doing enough? 

If you've ever felt that way... 

You're not alone. 

In today's Monday Mindset episode, I'm sharing a mindset shift that I think every working mom needs to hear: 

"You don't have to do it all yourself to be enough." 

As moms, we often wear busyness like a badge of honor. We convince ourselves that if we're exhausted, overwhelmed, and constantly pouring from an empty cup, it somehow proves how much we love our families. 

But what if that's not true? 

What if doing more doesn't make you a better mom... 

What if being more present does? 

Today, I'm talking about perfectionism, mom guilt, asking for help, and learning to let go of the unrealistic expectation that we have to carry everything on our own. 

I also leave you with a simple challenge to help you start releasing one thing that's been weighing you down this week. 

In This Episode, We Discuss: 

  • Why so many working moms feel like they have to do everything themselves  
  • The connection between perfectionism and mom guilt  
  • Why being exhausted isn't a badge of honor  
  • The difference between being busy because of life's season and creating unnecessary pressure for yourself  
  • Why asking for help is a sign of strength—not weakness  
  • How letting go of control creates more space for connection and presence  
  • A simple challenge to help you lighten your mental load this week  

✨This Week's Challenge 

Choose one thing you've been holding onto simply because you feel like you should be the one doing it. 

Ask yourself: 

"Am I doing this because it truly matters... or because I feel guilty letting someone else help?" 

If it's guilt... 

Practice letting it go. 

Delegate it. 

Simplify it. 

Or decide it doesn't need to be done at all. 

Sometimes the greatest gift you can give yourself—and your family—is permission to stop trying to do it all.

347. How to Keep Going When Your Dreams Take Longer Than Planned18 août 202600:10:26

Hi Mamas, , 

Three years ago, I wrote a letter to my future self. 

As part of a podcasting course, one of the assignments was to imagine where I'd be one year later. In that letter, I congratulated myself for reaching 100,000 podcast downloads. 

There was just one problem... 

I had absolutely no idea what I was getting myself into. 

At the time, I had only been listening to podcasts for a few months. I didn't know anything about microphones, editing, downloads, algorithms, or SEO. I wasn't active on social media. I worked a full-time corporate job, and I'm an introvert who has never been particularly comfortable putting myself out there. 

I was simply a working mom with a dream. 

I thought I'd reach 100,000 downloads in one year. 

Instead... 

It took me three and a half. 

And honestly? 

I wouldn't change a thing. 

In this very special milestone episode, I'm sharing the story behind the first 100,000 downloads, the dreams I had to put on hold, the one dream I refused to let die, and why I believe a delayed dream is not a dead dream. 

This episode isn't really about podcast downloads. 

It's about perseverance. 

It's about motherhood. 

It's about staying committed to the dreams that God—or the universe—placed on your heart, even when life doesn't unfold according to your timeline. 

And most importantly... 

It's a thank-you. 

To every single one of you who has listened, shared, encouraged me, and allowed me to be part of your mornings, your commutes, your workouts, and your life. 

From the bottom of my heart... 

Thank you. 

In This Episode, We Talk About: 

  • The letter I wrote to my future self when I first started my podcast  
  • Why I thought I'd reach 100,000 downloads in just one year  
  • What I didn't know about podcasting when I first started  
  • Balancing a full-time corporate career while building a passion project  
  • The dreams I had to put on hold… and the one I refused to give up  
  • What consistency has taught me over the last 350+ episodes  
  • Why I call my podcast my "nonprofit"  
  • The incredible feeling of reaching listeners in more than 150 countries  
  • Why your dreams don't expire just because life gets busy  
  • Encouragement for anyone who feels like they're behind on their own journey  

A Special Thank You 

Whether you've been listening since episode one or you just found this podcast yesterday... 

Thank you. 

Thank you for choosing to spend your time with me. 

Thank you for allowing me to be a small part of your journey. 

Thank you for helping turn a dream that once lived only in a letter into something I never imagined possible. 

Here's to the first 100,000 downloads... 

And to everything still to come.

346. Working Mom Mindset: Why It’s Not Too Late to Reach Your Goals17 août 202600:07:14

Hi Mamas, 

Do you ever feel like you should be further along by now? 

Maybe you thought you’d have started the business, changed careers, lost the weight, saved more money, written the book, gone back to school, or finally accomplished that goal that has been sitting on your heart. 

But life happened. 

Motherhood happened. Work got busy. Your priorities shifted. A hard season came along. And suddenly the timeline you had in your head looks nothing like your actual life. 

In today’s Monday Mindset episode of Mom Wife Career Life, we’re talking about this reminder: 

“A dream doesn’t expire just because it takes longer than you thought.” 

As working moms, we’re pursuing our goals while also raising kids, building careers, managing homes, nurturing relationships, and navigating seasons of life that don't always go according to plan. Sometimes pursuing a dream doesn’t look like going all in. Sometimes perseverance means slowing down without quitting. 

Sometimes it means letting go of the timeline while still holding onto the dream. 

In this episode, we’re talking about: 

✨ Why taking longer doesn’t mean you’ve failed,  

✨ Why comparing your timeline to someone else’s can steal your motivation, and  

✨ How to keep a dream alive even during seasons when you don’t have the time or capacity to give it everything. 

💛 This Week's Challenge 

Think about one dream or goal you’ve quietly started believing you’re behind on and ask yourself: 

“What is one small thing I can do to keep this dream alive?” 

You don’t need to figure out the entire plan today. You don’t need to completely change your life this week. 

Just take one small step. 

Because you’re allowed to change the timeline without giving up on the dream. 

And make sure you come back tomorrow for a very special episode where I’m sharing a huge Mom Wife Career Life milestone, the dream I wrote down when I first started this podcast, and what finally reaching it taught me about goals, perseverance, and refusing to give up—even when it takes much longer than you expected. 

🎧 Listen now and share this episode with a working mom who needs the reminder that she is not too late to go after the life she wants.

345. Back-to-School Systems Every Working Mom Needs: My Best Time & Sanity Saving Tips11 août 202600:22:27

Hey Mama, 

Back-to-school season is here, and if you're already feeling like your calendar is filling up faster than your coffee cup, you're not alone! 

This week, I'm bringing back one of my most popular back-to-school episodes… but with a twist. While the foundation is the same, I've updated it with new lessons, fresh tips, and a behind-the-scenes look at how our own family's routines are changing this year. 

This school year looks very different for us. Ashley is heading off to college, which means we're adjusting to life without our extra driver, learning new routines, and navigating all the emotions that come with a new season of motherhood. At the same time, Kaylee and Michael are starting another school year, and just like many of you, I'm looking for simple ways to stay organized without adding more stress to our days. 

In this episode, I'm sharing the systems and habits that help our family start the school year feeling calmer, more organized, and less overwhelmed. 

In This Episode, We Talk About: 

  • Why having one shared family calendar creates a single source of truth for your household 
  • Building your schedule around your non-negotiables before filling in everything else 
  • Creating simple morning and evening routines that make busy weekdays easier 
  • Why I've become a big believer in simplifying where you can—even if that means buying school lunch instead of packing it every day 
  • Setting healthy after-school screen time boundaries 
  • Creating systems that reduce decision fatigue and mental load 
  • Why protecting margin on your calendar is just as important as staying organized 
  • Simple ways to make back-to-school season feel more intentional and less chaotic 

This Week's Reminder 

You don't need a perfect plan to have a successful school year. 

You just need a few simple systems that support your family and the flexibility to adjust as life changes. 

Remember, organization isn't about doing more—it's about making life easier.

344. Working Mom Mindset: Stop Trying To Fit More Into Your Life & Make Room For What Matters Most10 août 202600:08:23

Hey Mama, 

As we head into back-to-school season, it's so easy to fall into the trap of thinking we need to fit everything into our already full schedules. New routines, school drop-offs, sports, homework, work deadlines, and family responsibilities all seem to arrive at once. 

But this week, I want to challenge you to think about things differently. 

Instead of asking yourself, "How am I going to fit it all in?" what if you asked: 

"What deserves a place in my life this season?" 

Every season of motherhood is different. As our children grow, our schedules change, and our responsibilities evolve, our priorities have to evolve too. 

In this episode, I encourage you to stop trying to squeeze more into your days and instead make intentional space for the things that matter most. 

In This Episode: 

  • Why September often feels so overwhelming  
  • A simple mindset shift to reduce stress before the school year begins  
  • Why every season of motherhood requires different priorities  
  • How to create more balance by making intentional choices instead of trying to do it all  
  • This week's Monday Mindset Challenge  

This Week's Mindset Shift 

"Stop trying to fit more into your life, and start making more room for what matters most." 

This Week's Challenge 

Take five minutes to look at your calendar for the week ahead. 

Instead of asking, "Where can I fit one more thing?" ask yourself: 

"What deserves a place in my life this season?" 

Then challenge yourself to remove, postpone, or say "no" to one thing that no longer aligns with your priorities. 

Sometimes creating balance isn't about finding more time—it's about making more room for what matters most.

343. How To Reset After Vacation Without Feeling Behind 6 Simple Tips For Working Moms04 août 202600:15:38

Hi Mamas, 

Have you ever noticed that the minute you walk through your front door after vacation, your brain stops thinking about all the incredible memories you just made... and immediately starts making a mental list of everything you need to do? 

Laundry.  Groceries.  Emails.  Work.  Meal planning.  Back-to-school prep. 

As working moms, it's so easy to feel like we're already behind before we've even unpacked our suitcases. 

In today's episode, I'm sharing six simple ways to reset after vacation without feeling overwhelmed so you can transition back into everyday life with more peace, less stress, and a whole lot more intention. 

After returning home from an unforgettable two-week family trip to Spain, I realized one of the biggest lessons I brought home had nothing to do with travel. It was the reminder that vacation isn't an interruption to your life… it is your life. And instead of rushing to "catch up," maybe what we really need is a gentle reset. 

In this episode, you'll learn: 

  • Why giving yourself a buffer day after vacation can make all the difference 
  • How to avoid trying to reset your entire life in one day 
  • Why rebuilding your routines matters more than having a perfectly clean house 
  • The mindset shift that will help you stop feeling like you're constantly behind 
  • How choosing just ONE reset can reduce overwhelm and build momentum 
  • Simple ways to bring the slower, more intentional feeling of vacation home with you 

If you're heading back to work, preparing for back-to-school season, or simply feeling overwhelmed after time away, this episode will help you reset with grace instead of guilt.

342. Working Mom Mindset: Don't Rush To Get Back To Life03 août 202600:05:19

Hi Mamas, 

Have you ever noticed that the minute you get home from vacation, your brain immediately shifts into productivity mode? 

Laundry.  Groceries.  Emails.  Work.  The never-ending to-do list. 

As working moms, it's easy to convince ourselves that we're already behind before we've even unpacked our suitcases. 

But what if vacation wasn't an interruption to your life? 

What if it was your life? 

In today's Monday Mindset episode, I'm sharing a simple but powerful mindset shift inspired by our recent family trip to Spain—one that reminded me that the memories we make, the moments we slow down, and the time we spend with the people we love aren't distractions from life... they're the reason we work so hard in the first place. 

Before you dive back into your busy schedule, this episode will encourage you to pause, reflect, and choose one thing you want to carry home from your vacation besides your suitcase. 

In this episode, we'll talk about: 

✨ Why working moms often feel "behind" the moment vacation ends 

✨ The mindset shift that helped me stop trying to catch up 

✨ Why being present is more important than being productive 

✨ How to bring the best parts of vacation into your everyday life 

✨ One simple question that can change the way you start your week 

 

💛 This Week's Monday Mindset Challenge 

Before you jump back into your to-do list, ask yourself: 

"What's one feeling, one habit, or one moment from my vacation that I want to carry into this week?" 

Choose just one. 

Maybe it's slowing down at dinner. 

Taking an evening walk. 

Putting your phone away for an hour. 

Or simply giving yourself permission to be fully present.

341. When Life Throws You A Curveball: 3 Ways To Move Forward Without Feeling Overwhelmed28 juil. 202600:12:40

Hi Mamas,

Have you ever had one unexpected moment make you feel like all your plans were about to fall apart?

That's exactly what happened to my family just 36 hours before we were supposed to leave for Spain.

In this episode, I'm sharing the story of the huge curveball that had us questioning whether we'd even make the trip… and the three mindset shifts that helped me move from panic and overwhelm to problem-solving.

Life is always going to throw us unexpected challenges. Whether it's something happening at work, a financial setback, a parenting struggle, or an unexpected health issue, we can't always control what happens to us. But we can control how we respond.

One simple question completely changed my perspective:

"What's my next best step?"

Instead of trying to solve the entire problem, I focused on taking one step at a time… and that's exactly what I hope you'll do the next time life throws you a curveball.

In this episode, I share:

✨ The unexpected event that almost caused us to cancel our family vacation to Spain.

✨ Why trying to solve the entire problem often creates more overwhelm.

✨ The three mindset shifts that helped me move forward when everything felt uncertain.

✨ How I used ChatGPT as a brainstorming and problem-solving tool during one of our most stressful weekends.

✨ Why different doesn't automatically mean ruined—and how some of life's biggest curveballs often become our favorite memories.

My Three Takeaways

💛 Accept reality faster.

I didn't have to like what was happening, but accepting it allowed me to stop wishing things were different and start looking for solutions.

💛 Focus on what you can control.

I couldn't magically heal Michael's ankle, but I could research options, make backup plans, adjust our expectations, and keep moving forward.

💛 Don't let one problem steal your joy.

Our vacation looked different than we originally imagined, but different didn't mean ruined. In fact, some of our favorite memories came from the very thing we thought might derail the trip.

This Week's Reflection

The next time life throws you a curveball, pause and ask yourself:

"What's my next best step?"

You don't have to have the entire plan figured out today.

You just have to keep moving forward, one step at a time.

340. Working Mom Mindset: Feeling Overwhelmed? Ask Yourself This One Simple Question27 juil. 202600:05:26

Hi Mamas,

Have you ever felt like your mind was racing with everything that could go wrong?

The work deadlines. The parenting challenges. The never-ending to-do list. The unexpected curveballs that seem to show up at the worst possible time.

This week I’m sharing how a simple shift in perspective helped me move from feeling completely overwhelmed to taking productive action.

Recording from Valencia, Spain, on my iphone (so please give me grace with the sound quality!_ I  reflect on why we often become overwhelmed… not because we have too much to do, but because we're trying to solve tomorrow's problems before we've taken today's first step.

I also share an important lesson I’ve taught my own kids for years: when life gets messy, you don't have to have all the answers…you just need to know your next right step.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • Why overwhelm often comes from trying to solve everything at once.
  • The one question that can help you quiet an anxious, racing mind.
  • Why clarity comes from taking action… not waiting until you have all the answers.
  • A parenting lesson Kerri hopes her kids never forget.
  • A simple challenge to help you feel calmer and more intentional this week.

This Week's Mindset Shift

"Overwhelm fades when you stop trying to solve everything and simply ask, 'What's my next best step?'"

💛 This Week's Challenge

The next time you catch yourself spiraling, pause before trying to solve the entire problem.

Instead, ask yourself:

"What's my next best step?"

Then take that one step before worrying about the next one.

Small, intentional steps create momentum—and momentum leads to clarity.

339. How Busy Working Moms Can Build Strong Friendships (Without Adding More to Their Plate)21 juil. 202600:10:16

Hi Mamas,

Have you ever found yourself saying...

"We should definitely get together sometime!"

...and then months go by?

You're not alone.

As working moms, we're balancing careers, parenting, marriages, household responsibilities, and everything in between. Friendships often fall to the bottom of the list—not because they aren't important, but because we're convinced we'll make time for them later.

In today's episode, Kerri shares personal stories about reconnecting over coffee, spontaneous girls' nights, and how those small moments of connection became exactly what she needed during one of the busiest seasons of her life.

She also shares practical, realistic ways to build friendships that actually fit into your life right now.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • Why making friends gets harder as we get older
  • The mindset shift every busy mom needs about adult friendships
  • How to build friendships without adding more to your calendar
  • Why small moments of connection matter more than big plans
  • Simple ways to meet new people in places you're already going
  • How to overcome social anxiety or introversion when making friends
  • Why being the one who reaches out can change everything
  • How your "village" helps you become a better mom, wife, and professional

Friendships aren't built because we suddenly have more time. They're built because we decide the people are worth making time for.

338. Working Mom Mindset: The Quality Of Your Life Is the Quality Of Your Relationnships20 juil. 202600:05:53

Hi Mamas, 

Do you ever find yourself saying... 

"I'd love to spend more time with my friends... when life slows down." 

As busy working moms, we're constantly juggling work, kids, marriage, household responsibilities, and endless to-do lists. It's easy to believe we'll invest in our relationships once we have more free time. 

But what if stronger relationships aren't built because we suddenly have more time? 

What if they're built because we intentionally make time for the people who matter most? 

In this week's Monday Mindset, we're shifting the way we think about connection and reminding ourselves that even the smallest moments—a quick text, a phone call, a walk, or an hour over coffee—can strengthen the relationships that make life richer. 

In this episode you'll discover: 

❤️ Why waiting for life to "slow down" usually doesn't work 

❤️ How small moments create meaningful relationships 

❤️ Why intentional connection matters more than having extra time 

❤️ This week's simple challenge to strengthen one relationship 

If this episode encouraged you, share it with another working mom who could use the reminder. 

And be sure to come back tomorrow as we continue this conversation with practical tips on how to make and maintain friendships as a busy working mom—even when you feel like you have no time. 

💛 This Week's Challenge 

Reach out to one person this week. 

Send the text. 

Make the call. 

Plan the coffee date. 

Schedule the walk. 

Invite another couple over for dinner. 

Or simply reconnect with someone you've been thinking about. 

Because life is busy. 

It always will be. 

But the people we love deserve more than whatever time happens to be left over.

337. How to Stop Letting One Bad Moment Ruin Your Whole Day14 juil. 202600:14:07

Hi Mamas, 

Have you ever had an entire day ruined because one thing didn't go according to plan? 

Maybe your workday blew up before lunch.  Your kids started arguing before you'd even had your coffee.  Dinner burned.  Your vacation started with mosquito bites instead of beach chairs. 

As working moms, we spend so much time planning our lives that we often forget one important truth... 

Life rarely goes exactly as planned. 

In today's episode, I'm sharing the story of my recent mother-daughter trip to the Dominican Republic with Ashley before she heads off to college. We had beautiful moments, unexpected challenges, and plenty of reminders that perfection isn't what creates our favorite memories. 

I'll also share five simple mindset shifts that have helped me stop letting one frustrating moment steal an entire day. 

In this episode we'll talk about: 

✔️ Why one bad moment doesn't have to ruin your entire day 

✔️ How unrealistic expectations create unnecessary stress 

✔️ The simple question to ask yourself when life throws you a curveball 

✔️ Why flexibility creates more peace than perfection 

✔️ How to focus on the memories that matter most 

If you're a busy working mom who wants to stop chasing perfect days and start enjoying the life that's happening right in front of you, this episode is for you.

336. Working Mom Mindset: Every Day Holds A Blessing... Even The Bad Ones13 juil. 202600:05:20

Hi Mamas, 

Have you ever reached the end of the day feeling like everything went wrong? 

As busy working moms, it's easy to let one stressful meeting, one parenting challenge, or one unexpected inconvenience define our entire day. But what if we intentionally chose to focus on what went right instead? 

In this week's Monday Mindset episode, I'm sharing a simple quote that's been on my heart lately: 

"Every day holds a blessing. Don't let one hard moment make you miss it." 

We'll talk about why our minds naturally focus on the negative, how practicing gratitude can completely shift our perspective, and one simple habit you can start today to help you notice the blessings that are already all around you. 

In this episode, we'll discuss: 

  • Why one difficult moment shouldn't define your entire day 
  • How gratitude helps reduce stress and shift your mindset 
  • Why every day can be both hard and beautiful at the same time 
  • A simple question to ask yourself every evening 
  • This week's Monday Mindset Challenge 

This Week's Challenge 

Before you go to bed each night this week, ask yourself: 

"What was today's blessing?" 

It doesn't have to be something big. 

Maybe it was your morning coffee.  A kind word from a friend.  A hug from your child.  A productive meeting.  A quiet moment to yourself. 

Train your mind to notice what's good, even on the hard days. 

✨ If this episode encouraged you, I'd love for you to share it with another working mom who could use the reminder. 

And don't forget to come back tomorrow for Part 2, where I'll share a personal story that brought this lesson to life in a way I wasn't expecting.

335. The Missing Piece in My Time Management Journey & It Wasn't Another Productivity Hack07 juil. 202600:14:08

Hi Mamas, 

For years, I've taught the famous rocks, pebbles, and sand time management analogy. 

Put the big rocks in first. 

Then everything else fits around them. 

But during a recent Sunday homily, I heard one sentence that completely changed the way I've thought about that lesson for years: 

"The first big rock should be God." 

That simple statement connected a puzzle piece I didn't even realize was missing. 

In this episode, I'm sharing: 

  • Why this episode almost became a Monday Mindset  
  • The story that started with my college dorm assignment and reminded me to trust God's plan  
  • My personal Sunday mantra:  "If I make time for God, God will make time for me."  
  • How that mindset has changed my relationship with time  
  • Why boundaries have become easier  
  • Why I no longer believe everything depends on me  
  • What faith looks like in our family  
  • Why I believe faith is lived every day—not just inside a church building  
  • The difference between being responsible... and believing you're responsible for everything  

This is one of the most personal episodes I've ever shared, and my hope is simply that it encourages you to slow down, breathe, and remember that peace isn't found in doing more—it's found in letting go of what you were never meant to carry. 

In This Episode We Cover 

✨ Why your to-do list isn't always the problem 

✨ The rocks, pebbles, and sand lesson that changed my perspective 

✨ How faith has influenced my time management journey 

✨ Why boundaries become easier when you stop trying to control everything 

✨ The difference between productivity and peace 

✨ Trusting the process when life doesn't go according to plan 

✨ Modeling faith instead of forcing it 

✨ Finding peace in busy seasons

334. Working Mom Mindset: What Are You Carrying That Was Never Yours To Carry?06 juil. 202600:05:28

Hi Mamas, 

What are you carrying that was never yours to carry? 

As working moms, we're often praised for doing it all. 

We remember the appointments. 

Manage the schedules. 

Keep track of the grocery list. 

Support our families. 

Show up at work. 

Take care of everyone else. 

But somewhere along the way, many of us start believing that if we don't do everything... 

Everything will fall apart. 

In this week's Working Mom Mindset, we're talking about the invisible weight so many women carry every day… and why peace often begins when we learn to put some of that weight down. 

In This Episode You'll Learn: 

✨ Why overwhelmed working moms often carry more than they need to 

✨ The difference between being responsible and believing you're responsible for everything 

✨ How guilt keeps us carrying unnecessary burdens 

✨ Why letting go isn't giving up 

✨ A simple mindset shift to help you find more peace this week 

 

This Week's Challenge 

This week, I want you to pause for just a few minutes and ask yourself: 

What am I carrying that was never mine to carry? 

Is it: 

  • Someone else's expectations?  
  • Guilt?  
  • Trying to make everyone happy?  
  • Trying to control something that's outside your control?  

Choose just one thing. 

Practice putting it down this week. 

Because peace doesn't always come from doing more. 

Sometimes... 

It comes from carrying less.

332. Working Mom Mindset: How To Make More TIme For Your Spouce Even When Life Is Busy29 juin 202600:04:34

Hi Mamas,

As working moms, it's easy to spend our days taking care of everyone else. Work deadlines, kids' schedules, laundry, meals, errands, and endless to-do lists can quietly push our relationships to the bottom of the priority list.

In this week's Monday Mindset, we're talking about one simple but powerful truth:

"Love grows best in the spaces we intentionally make for it."

If you've been feeling disconnected from your spouse or wondering where the spark has gone, this episode is a reminder that strong relationships aren't built by waiting for life to slow down—they're built by intentionally creating moments of connection, even during life's busiest seasons.

Tomorrow, I'll be celebrating 25 years with my husband, Russ, and sharing our love story along with the habits that have helped us stay connected through work, raising three kids, and all of life's beautiful chaos.

In This Episode, We Cover

❤️ Why busy seasons can unintentionally push your marriage to the back burner

❤️ The difference between making time and waiting to have time

❤️ Why intentional connection matters more than grand romantic gestures

❤️ Small ways to reconnect with your spouse this week

❤️ A simple challenge to help you prioritize your relationship

This Week's Challenge

Take 10 intentional, uninterrupted minutes with your spouse or partner.

No phones.

No TV.

No talking about schedules, bills, or the kids.

Just be together.

Because love grows best in the spaces we intentionally make for it.

331. How To Advocate For Yourself At Work As A Working Mom Without Guilt Or Fear23 juin 202600:11:47

Hi Mamas, 

Have you ever found yourself advocating fiercely for your kids, your family, or your team… but struggling to speak up for yourself? 

You're not alone. 

In this episode, I'm sharing a lesson that life has been reminding me of lately: advocating for yourself isn't asking for special treatment—it's communicating what you need so you can continue showing up at your best without burning yourself out. 

Between Ashley's prom, graduation, college orientation, Kaylee's Sweet 16, a mother-daughter trip, the podcast, and my corporate job, this season of life has been BUSY. And recently I was reminded just how important it is to communicate early, set expectations, and stop assuming people know what we need. 

If you've ever felt overwhelmed, stretched too thin, afraid to speak up, or worried about how advocating for yourself might be perceived at work, this episode is for you. 

In This Episode, I Share: 

💛 Why advocating for yourself is not asking for special treatment 

💛 How communicating early can reduce stress and prevent burnout 

💛 The importance of getting clear on what you actually need 

💛 Why bringing solutions instead of complaints leads to better conversations 

💛 How fear and assumptions keep so many women silent 

💛 A personal story about the moment I finally stopped staying quiet and started speaking my truth at work 

💛 Why trust and consistency make workplace flexibility easier 

💛 How boundaries and career success can absolutely coexist 

💛 Simple ways to start advocating for yourself with confidence

330. Working Mom Mindset: You Can Be Committed To Your Career Withouth Being Consumed By It22 juin 202600:06:00

Hi Mamas, 

As working moms, many of us take pride in doing our jobs well. 

We show up. 

We work hard. 

We care deeply about the quality of our work. 

And whether we absolutely love our jobs or simply see them as a way to provide for our families, many of us have something in common: 

We don't know how to stop. 

In today's Monday Mindset, I'm sharing a powerful reminder that has been on my heart lately: 

You can be committed to your career without being consumed by it. 

This episode isn't just for the moms who are passionate about their careers. It's also for the moms who show up every day, do their best, take pride in being high performers, and carry a lot of responsibility—both at work and at home. 

We'll talk about the difference between being committed and being consumed, why so many working moms struggle to separate the two, and how to create more space for the life you're working so hard to build. 

Because at the end of the day, your career is part of your life. 

It shouldn't become your entire life. 

 

💛 In This Episode, You'll Learn: 

  • The difference between being committed to your career and being consumed by it  
  • Why high-achieving working moms often struggle with boundaries  
  • How work can quietly take up more mental space than we realize  
  • Why success doesn't have to come at the expense of your family or personal life  
  • The mindset shift that can help you create more balance and presence  
  • How to build a career that supports your life instead of running it  

 

💛 This Week's Challenge 

Ask yourself: 

Am I committed to my career... or am I being consumed by it? 

Then identify one small boundary you can put in place this week. 

Maybe it's: 

  • Logging off on time  
  • Not checking email after dinner  
  • Taking your lunch break  
  • Using PTO you've been putting off  
  • Being fully present with your family after work  

Small changes create big shifts.

329. How To Not Let A Hard Season At Work Steal A Beautiful Season At Home16 juin 202600:09:51

Hi Mamas, 

Have you ever closed your laptop after a stressful day at work only to find yourself replaying emails, meetings, and conversations long after the workday ended? 

In today's episode, I'm sharing something that's been weighing heavily on my heart. 

Work has been stressful lately. 

At the exact same time, life has been incredibly full in the best possible way. 

My oldest daughter is graduating high school. 

We're navigating prom, college orientation, dorm shopping, and preparing for a huge life transition. 

My middle daughter just turned sixteen. 

And somehow my youngest is only one month away from becoming a teenager. 

This season has reminded me of something important: 

💛 Work will always have another problem to solve.  💛 Another deadline.  💛 Another meeting. 

But this version of our children only exists once. 

In this episode, we're talking about how to recover from difficult days at work without letting them steal your joy, your peace, or your presence at home. 

INSIDE THIS EPISODE: 

✔️ Why one bad day at work doesn't define you  ✔️ How to stop carrying the emotional weight of work into your evenings  ✔️ The truth about imposter syndrome and self-doubt  ✔️ How criticism can trigger the "I'm not enough" spiral  ✔️ Why protecting your peace is just as important as meeting your deadlines  ✔️ A powerful question that will help you stay present in the season you're living right now  ✔️ How to focus on how you want a season to feel instead of just what you want to accomplish 

THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE: 

Identify one beautiful thing happening in your life right now. 

Then ask yourself: 

✨ How do I want this season to feel? 

And... 

✨ What am I carrying that I need to let go of so I can fully experience it? 

Because mama, these are the moments you'll miss someday. 

Let's make sure we don't miss them while they're happening.

328. Working Mom Mindset: Be Where Your Feet Are15 juin 202600:06:28

Hi Mamas, 

Have you ever found yourself saying: 

👉 "I'll feel better when I lose the weight." 

👉 "I'll wear that when I get back to my goal weight." 

👉 "I'll be more confident when I look different." 

👉 "I'll enjoy myself more when..." 

If so, you're not alone. 

In this Monday Mindset episode, I walk about my own journey with weight loss, weight gain, confidence, and body image. 

After working hard to lose weight a few years ago, I share how some of that weight slowly crept back on through the busyness of life, stress, and changing hormones... and howI realized she was allowing her insecurities to take up far too much space in her mind. 

This episode is a powerful reminder that so many of us are waiting for some future version of ourselves before we give ourselves permission to fully enjoy our lives. 

But the truth is: 

Your life is not on hold until you lose the weight. 

The memories, opportunities, laughter, and moments that matter most are happening right now. 

In this episode, you'll learn why confidence isn't about reaching a number on the scale, how perfection keeps us stuck, and why learning to be present matters so much more than chasing impossible standards. 

 

In this episode you’ll learn… 

✔ Why so many women unknowingly put their happiness on hold 

✔ Kerri's personal story about losing weight, gaining some of it back, and navigating changing confidence 

✔ The hidden cost of waiting until you feel "good enough" 

✔ Why perfection is a moving target 

✔ How body image can steal your presence and joy 

✔ The difference between confidence and self-acceptance 

✔ Why the moments you'll remember most have nothing to do with your weight 

✔ A simple mindset shift to help you stop postponing your life 

My Challenge for you this week, mamas:  

Ask yourself: 

What have I been putting off while I wait to feel good enough? 

Then choose one small action and do it anyway. 

📸 Get in the picture. 

👙 Wear the bathing suit. 

☀️ Go to the pool. 

✈️ Book the trip. 

📝 Sign up for the class. 

💡 Start the thing you've been thinking about. 

Because your life isn't waiting. 

It's happening right now. 

And you deserve to be fully present for it. 

✨ Share your challenge inside our free Facebook community—I would love to cheer you on!

327. How to Stop Letting Your Weight, Body Image, and Other People's Opinions Control Your Happiness09 juin 202600:10:17

Hi Mamas, 

Have you ever avoided a photo, skipped a pool day, dreaded a vacation, or put your life on hold because you weren't happy with your body? 

In this episode I talk about one of my biggest insecurities… weight gain, cellulite, and how I almost let my body image steal the joy from a bucket-list trip to Las Vegas with Russ. After a terrifying emergency landing put life into perspective, I realized just how much time and energy I’ve wasted worrying about what other people might think. 

If you've ever struggled with confidence, comparison, body image, people-pleasing, or feeling like you need to lose weight before you can fully enjoy your life, this episode is for you. 

You'll learn how to stop letting other people's opinions dictate your happiness and start living, experiencing, and making memories right now. 

IN THIS EPISODE, WE COVER: 

  • Why caring what other people think keeps so many women stuck • The connection between body image and self-worth • How weight gain, perimenopause, and physical changes can impact confidence  • The powerful perspective shift that came from a terrifying emergency landing  • Why most people aren't thinking about you nearly as much as you think they are  • How to stop waiting to lose the weight before you start living your life  • The difference between seeking approval and building true confidence  • Why healthy boundaries can help you stop carrying the weight of other people's expectations  • How to become more present for the moments and memories that matter most

325. How To Stop Comparing Yourself To Other Moms On Social Media02 juin 202600:16:21

Hi Mamas,

Enough as a mom. Enough in your career. Enough around the house. Enough in life.

You're not alone.

✔ Why social media comparison affects even confident moms

324. Working Mom Mindset: Social Media Is A Highlight Reel, Not Real Life01 juin 202600:05:25

Hi Mamas,

Do you ever open social media for "just a minute" and somehow end up feeling like you're behind?

Behind on motherhood. Behind on your goals. Behind on your housework. Behind on life.

You're not alone.

Today we're talking about the pressure of social media, the comparison trap so many moms fall into, and the powerful reminder that we are often comparing our real lives to someone else's carefully curated highlight reel.

I share my own struggles with social media as both a mom and a coach, why healthy boundaries around technology matter, and how comparison can quietly steal our joy, confidence, and presence without us even realizing it.

If you've ever found yourself questioning whether you're doing enough after scrolling social media, this episode is for you.

In This Episode We Discuss:

  • Why social media comparison is so common among moms • How comparison quietly steals joy and shifts our focus • The difference between real life and online highlight reels • Why even coaches and business owners struggle with comparison • The importance of creating healthy boundaries with social media • How to protect your peace and stay present in your own life • A simple mindset shift to help you stop feeling like you're falling behind

This Week's Quote:

"Don't compare your real life to someone else's highlight reel."

💛 My challenge for you this week, mamas…

📲 Pay attention to when comparison creeps in this week.

📲 When you notice it, pause.

📲 Put the phone down.

Look around at your real life, your family, your blessings, and the season you're currently living in.

Remind yourself that you were never meant to keep up with everyone else. You were meant to be present for your own life.

320. Hold Your Plans Loosely - A Time Management Mindset Shift for Working Moms18 mai 202600:04:12

Hi Mamas, 

If you’ve ever: 

  • Started your day with a plan… and felt like it fell apart instantly  
  • Gotten frustrated when things didn’t go “as expected”  
  • Felt behind just because your day didn’t go perfectly  

This episode is for you. 

 

💛 Today, we’re talking about why your plans aren’t the problem… And how holding onto them too tightly might actually be creating more stress. 

Because as working moms, we: 

  • Plan our days  
  • Plan our weeks  
  • Try to map out everything in advance  

And while planning is helpful… Expecting everything to go exactly according to plan? That’s where the pressure comes from. That’s why today’s quote is so important…. “Hold your plans loosely.” 

💛 Today we’re talking about… 

  • Why rigid expectations lead to stress and overwhelm  
  • How to plan your week without feeling pressure  
  • The difference between intention and control  
  • How to stay calm and flexible when your day shifts  
  • A simple mindset shift that creates more peace in your daily life  

💛 Your Weekly Challenge 

Make your plan… 

But leave space. 

When something shifts this week, instead of spiraling or starting over… 

Pause and say: 

👉 “This is just part of the day.” 

Then adjust… and keep going.

This week is especially meaningful as we celebrate 3 years of the Mom. Wife. Career. Life. podcast. And in this episode, Kerri shares a vulnerable reflection on where she thought she would be… versus where she is today. 

And maybe… where you are too. 

If you’ve ever felt: 

  • Behind in your career  
  • Behind financially  
  • Behind in motherhood  
  • Or like everyone else has it figured out except you  

This episode is your reminder that you are 💛 “You are not behind. You are becoming.” 💛 

💛 What You’ll Hear in This Episode: 

  • Why feeling “behind” is more common than you think  
  • How to reframe your current season of life as growth  
  • The hidden mental load working moms carry every day  
  • Why progress doesn’t always look the way you expect  
  • A powerful mindset shift to replace comparison and pressure  
  • How to give yourself more grace in this season  

💛 Your Weekly Challenge: 

The next time you catch yourself thinking… 

👉 “I’m behind…” 

Pause… and replace it with: 

👉 “I’m becoming.” 

Say it out loud. Write it down. Repeat it. 

Because the words you speak to yourself shape how you see your life.

316. Working Mom Mindset: Your Mind Was Never Meant to Hold Everything04 mai 202600:04:18

Hi Mamas, 

Do you ever feel like your brain is holding everything? 

The appointments…  The school reminders…  The emails…  The groceries…  The things you don’t want to forget… 

It’s not just your to-do list… it’s the constant mental load. 

In this Monday Mindset episode, we’re talking about how to declutter your mind, reduce overwhelm, and stop trying to remember everything. 

Because most working moms aren’t overwhelmed by their schedule…  They’re overwhelmed by what they’re mentally carrying. 

This episode will help you release mental clutter, create clarity, and feel more calm going into your week. 

 

In This Episode 

  • Why mental clutter creates overwhelm  
  • The connection between mental load and feeling behind  
  • Why your brain was never meant to hold everything  
  • How digital clutter adds to mental overload  
  • The power of getting things out of your head  
  • How clarity instantly reduces overwhelm  
  • A simple mindset shift for working moms  

 

💛My challenge for you this week mamas…. 

Do a brain dump. 

Write down everything currently living in your head: 

  • work tasks  
  • home responsibilities  
  • reminders  
  • things you don’t want to forget  

Then choose your top 3 priorities for the week.

314. Working Mom Mindset: Paper Clutter Is Just Decisions Waiting to Be Made27 avr. 202600:03:53

Hi Mamas, 

Paper clutter has a way of piling up fast… 

The mail on the counter…  School papers in backpacks…  Receipts, bills, and forms…  That stack you keep meaning to go through… 

And before you know it… it starts to feel overwhelming. 

In this Monday Mindset episode, we’re breaking down this quote by Barabara Hemphill: 

"Clutter is nothing more than postponed decisions."   

We’re shifting how you think about paper clutter and why it creates so much mental load. 

Because paper clutter isn’t really about paper…  It’s about postponed decisions. 

Every piece of paper represents something unfinished — something to review, sign, file, or throw away. When those decisions get delayed, the pile grows… and so does the overwhelm. 

This episode will help you simplify your approach to paperwork, reduce visual clutter, and create more calm in your home. 

 

In This Episode 

  • Why paper clutter creates mental overwhelm  
  • The connection between paper piles and postponed decisions  
  • How unfinished tasks increase mental load  
  • Why paper clutter creates visual stress  
  • A simple mindset shift for managing paperwork  
  • How quick decisions reduce clutter instantly  
  • One small step to start decluttering paper  

💛My challenge for you this week mamas…. 

Choose one paper pile and make decisions: 

Kitchen counter  Mail stack  Kids’ backpacks  Command center  Paper drawer 

You don’t need a perfect system… just start making decisions.

313. Digital Declutter: Organize Your Files and Time with Shawn Lemon - Part 2 Throwback22 avr. 202600:19:53

Hi Mamas,  

If digital clutter has you feeling overwhelmed... if your downloads folder looks like a black hole of mystery files... if you’ve got stacks of paper you swear you’ll deal with “someday”... this episode is for YOU. 

I’m back with Shawn Lemon, founder of The Digital Organizer, for Part 2 of our conversation all about decluttering your digital life and setting up systems that actually work. Sean has spent the last 17 years helping people get their tech together so they can save time, reduce stress, and finally feel organized. And let me tell you, I walked away from this episode with a to-do list (for my kids, obviously). 

We’re covering everything from:  ✅ The best way to start decluttering your computer (without wanting to scream)  ✅ How to set up a digital filing system that keeps everything in one place  ✅ The one setting you need to change in Chrome right now to avoid the downloads folder disaster  ✅ How to go paperless and free up that precious closet space (goodbye, bins of old statements 👋)  ✅ The time management tools Sean swears by to keep everything running smoothly 

The biggest takeaway? Digital organization isn’t about having a perfectly tidy computer… it’s about reclaiming your time and mental space. And I don’t know about you, but I could use more of both.

311. Working Mom Mindset: How Digital Clutter Creates Overwhelm20 avr. 202600:04:31

Hi Mamas, 

Digital clutter is easy to ignore… but it’s quietly stealing your time, energy, and focus. 

The unread emails…  The overflowing downloads folder…  The screenshots you meant to go back to…  The notes, files, and apps everywhere… 

It all adds up to mental clutter and daily friction. 

In this Monday Mindset episode, we’re breaking down this quote:  

"Clutter isn't just the stuff on your floor — it's anything that stands between you and the life you want."  — Peter Walsh 

We’re talking about how digital clutter stands between you and the life you want… and how simplifying your digital spaces can instantly reduce overwhelm. 

Because clutter isn’t just physical…  It’s anything that slows you down, distracts you, or makes you feel behind. 

When you reduce digital clutter: 

  • You save time searching for things  
  • You reduce mental load  
  • You feel more organized and in control  
  • You improve focus and productivity  
  • You create more presence with your family  

This episode will help you shift your mindset around digital clutter and take one simple step toward creating more calm in your day. 

In This Episode 

  • How digital clutter creates overwhelm  
  • The connection between digital clutter and mental load  
  • Why email and file clutter drains your energy  
  • How digital clutter steals time in small ways  
  • The importance of reducing friction in your day  
  • A simple way to start decluttering your digital life  
  • How small changes create more calm and clarity  

💛My challenge for you this week mamas…. 

Choose one digital space to declutter: 

Your inbox  Your downloads folder  Your desktop  Your phone photos  Your notes app 

You don’t need to do everything… just remove one layer of friction.

309. Working Mom Mindset: Why Cleaning Out Your Closet Can Instantly Improve Your Life13 avr. 202600:04:55

Hi Mamas, 

Grab your free spot for the Calm Connection Parenting online summit happening April 20th-24th: Click here SAVE MY SEAT! 

Have you ever opened your closet in the morning and felt like you had nothing to wear… even though it’s completely full? 

Closets can easily become packed with clothes we no longer wear, items that no longer fit our lives, or pieces we hold onto out of guilt or “just in case.” And over time, that clutter can start to create mental overwhelm. 

In today’s episode, we’re breaking down this quote by Cheryl Richardson: 

“If you want to improve your life immediately, clean out a closet. Often what we hold onto holds us back.” 

Decluttering isn’t just about organizing your home. It’s about creating mental space and letting go of the things that no longer serve you so you can move forward with more clarity and intention. 

What You’ll Learn in This Episode 

In this Monday Mindset episode, you’ll discover: 

  • Why clutter can quietly increase stress and overwhelm • How your closet can hold onto more than just clothes • Why letting go of items you no longer wear creates mental clarity  • The connection between your environment and your mindset  • How small decluttering wins can create momentum 

💛My challenge for you this week mamas…. 

Instead of trying to declutter your entire closet at once, try this simple challenge: 

Every day this week, remove three items from your closet that you no longer wear or love. 

By the end of the week, you’ll have cleared out more than 20 items without feeling overwhelmed. 

Small steps create momentum… and momentum creates change. 

Then grab your 🧹 Spring Cleaning Checklist to help keep your Spring Cleaning on track!

If you’ve ever looked around your house and felt like everywhere you turn there’s another pile… papers on the counter, toys on the floor, clothes that need to be put away, random items that don’t seem to have a home… you’re not alone. 

Clutter is one of the most common sources of overwhelm I hear from working moms. 

When every room feels messy or disorganized, it can make it hard to relax, focus, or enjoy the space you live in.

Decluttering your home doesn’t have to happen all at once. 

In this throwback episode, I’m sharing simple strategies that helped me start reclaiming my home one small step at a time. These practical tips will help you begin decluttering without feeling like you need to tackle your entire house in one weekend. 

Because the goal isn’t perfection… 

It’s creating a home that feels calmer, more organized, and easier to maintain as a busy working mom.

307. Working Mom Mindset: Feeling Overwhelmed? You're Home Might Be The Reason06 avr. 202600:05:20

Hi mama, 

Grab your free spot for the Calm Connection Parenting online summit happening April 20th-24th: Click here SAVE MY SEAT! 

Have you ever walked into your house and immediately felt overwhelmed? 

Laundry piles, papers on the counter, toys on the floor, closets that feel impossible to organize… sometimes it can feel like clutter is everywhere. 

For busy working moms juggling careers, kids, schedules, and responsibilities, the state of our home can quietly impact our stress levels and mental clarity. 

In this episode we break down this quote that is so true… 

“The state of your house is the state of your mind.” 

This short mindset shift will help you see how your environment can influence how you feel… and why even small decluttering steps can create more calm in your day. 

And if this is something you’ve been struggling with, make sure you come back tomorrow for the next episode where Kerri shares 10 practical tips to help you start decluttering your home without feeling overwhelmed. 

What You’ll Learn in This Episode 

In this Monday Mindset episode, you’ll discover: 

  • Why clutter can increase stress and mental overwhelm for working moms • How visual clutter creates “mental noise” in your daily life • The connection between an organized home and feeling calmer  • Why your house doesn’t have to be perfect to feel peaceful  • How small decluttering wins can create momentum and clarity 

 

💛My challenge for you this week mamas… 

Choose one small space in your home and declutter it. 

It could be: 

  • one drawer • one shelf • one pile of papers  • one corner of a counter 

You don’t have to tackle the entire house. 

Small steps create momentum, and momentum creates change.

306. How To Tackle Your Spring Cleaning As A Busy Working Mom: Throwback31 mars 202600:18:36

Hi mama, 

Grab your free spot for the Calm Connection Parenting online summit happening April 20th-24th: Click here SAVE MY SEAT! 

Spring is in the air… which means opening the windows, letting the sunshine in, and suddenly noticing everything in the house that needs to be cleaned, organized, or decluttered. 

Make sure you grab your🧹 Spring Cleaning Checklist here! 

But if you're a busy working mom juggling work deadlines, kids’ schedules, sports, school events, and everything else life throws your way… finding time for spring cleaning can feel overwhelming. 

The good news? 

You don’t need an entire weekend…  or a perfectly organized Pinterest house…  to refresh your home. 

In this throwback episode , I’m sharing simple and realistic spring cleaning strategies designed specifically for busy working moms who want an organized home without spending all their free time cleaning. 

Because the goal isn’t perfection… 

It’s creating a home that supports your life instead of adding more stress to it. 

What You’ll Learn in This Episode 

In this episode, I walk you through practical strategies that make spring cleaning manageable — even with a full schedule. 

You’ll learn: 

  • Howtime blocking small cleaning sessionscan make spring cleaning faster and less overwhelming  • Why creating a cleaning caddy saves time and keeps you focused  • The high-traffic areas of your home that make the biggest difference when cleaned first  • How decluttering while you clean reduces mental clutter too  • Simple ways to break large cleaning tasks into small, doable steps  • How to create a laundry routine that prevents piles from taking over your house  • Why getting your kids involved in maintaining the house builds important life skills  • The importance of systems and routines that keep your home organized long after spring cleaning is finished 

One of the biggest mindset shifts I share in this episode is this: 

Spring cleaning doesn’t have to happen all at once. 

Small, consistent efforts make the biggest difference. 

Instead of trying to clean your entire house in one exhausting day, focus on: 

  • tackling small areas at a time • decluttering as you go • creating routines that help maintain your progress 

Because maintaining a clean and organized home isn’t about doing everything perfectly… 

It’s about building habits that make life easier for you and your family.

If your home sometimes feels like another source of stress instead of a place where you can relax… this Monday Mindset episode is for you. 

For busy working moms juggling careers, kids, schedules, and never-ending to-do lists, home can start to feel like just another place where work needs to be done. 

But what if we shifted the way we think about our homes? 

In this episode of Mom. Wife. Career. Life., Kerri Patt shares a powerful mindset shift inspired by organizing expert Peter Walsh: 

“Your home should be the antidote to stress, not the cause of it.” – Peter Walsh 

If your house has started to feel overwhelming, cluttered, or mentally draining, this short Monday Mindset episode will help you reset how you think about your space and take one simple step toward creating a calmer environment for you and your family. 

And make sure to come back tomorrow for Episode 306, where we dive into practical strategies for spring cleaning as a busy working mom. 

What You'll Learn in This Episode 

In this Monday Mindset episode, you'll discover: 

  • Why many working moms feel overwhelmed by their homes • How clutter and disorganization can quietly increase daily stress • The mindset shift that helps you view your home as a place of restoration  • How small changes in your environment can improve mental clarity  • One simple question that can help you start creating a calmer home today 

💛 Your challenge this week:  

Walk through your home and ask yourself: 

What is one small change I could make that would make this space feel calmer? 

Maybe it's clearing off one counter. 

Maybe it's starting a small donation pile. 

Maybe it's creating a drop zone for backpacks, keys, and shoes. 

Small shifts can make a big difference in how your home feels.

304. Plan Your Best Summer Yet as a Working Mom (Simple System for Less Stress & More Memories)24 mars 202600:20:07

Hi mama, 

Summer can be one of the most magical seasons when you have kids. 

Beach days, ice cream runs, pool time, backyard dinners, and those long evenings when the sun doesn’t seem to set. 

But for working moms, summer also comes with a lot of logistics and planning. 

Between camps, sports schedules, vacations, childcare, and work responsibilities, it can feel like summer becomes another schedule to manage instead of a season to enjoy. 

In today’s episode, I share a simple framework to help working moms plan an intentional summer so you can handle the logistics while still creating meaningful family memories. 

Instead of letting summer fly by in a blur, a little planning now can help your family experience a season that feels more relaxed, fun, and connected. 

 

What You'll Learn in This Episode 

🏖️Start With the Reality of Your Schedule  Before planning the fun things, map out camps, sports, childcare needs, and work schedules so you know what your summer actually looks like. 

🍉Decide How You Want Summer to Feel  Do you want your summer to feel relaxed, adventurous, connected, or slower paced? Defining this helps guide your decisions. 

🌴Choose Your Summer Priorities  Identify the few things that would make the season meaningful for your family. 

🌊Create a Simple Summer Bucket List  Ask your kids what they want to do this summer and write down a short list of realistic activities. 

🍦Establish Weekly Summer Traditions  Simple traditions like taco night, movie night, or family walks can create rhythm and connection. 

🌞Protect White Space  Leave room in the calendar for spontaneous fun, relaxation, and the moments that often become the most memorable.

303. Working Mom Mindset: Slow Down & Enjoy This Season of Motherhood23 mars 202600:05:16

Hi Mamas, 

If you’re a working mom, you probably understand this quote immediately: 

“The days are long, but the years are short.” 

Between work responsibilities, family schedules, sports practices, and household tasks, many moms feel like they’re constantly juggling everything at once. 

The daily routine of parenting can feel exhausting and overwhelming at times. 

But when we step back and look at the bigger picture, something becomes clear. 

The season of raising kids moves incredibly fast. 

 

In This Episode I share: 

  • Why parenting days can feel long but childhood goes by quickly • How working moms can slow down and be more present with their kids • The power of creating simple family traditions  • Why small moments often become the most meaningful memories  • A simple mindset challenge to help you be more intentional this summer 

 

💛 Your challenge this week: 

Ask yourself this question today: 

What is one simple moment I want to create with my kids this summer? 

Maybe it's: 

☀️ weekly ice cream nights  🎬 family movie nights  🚲 evening bike rides  🍉 backyard dinners  🏖️ spontaneous beach trips 

The goal isn’t to create a perfect summer. 

It’s to create intentional moments your family will remember.

301. Working Mom Mindset: The Simple Time Management Rule That Helps Busy Moms16 mars 202600:04:54

Hi Mamas, 

If you’ve ever started the week with big intentions… working out, meal prepping, spending more quality time with your kids, or finally getting ahead at work… only to watch the week fill up with meetings, activities, and unexpected responsibilities… 

You are not alone. 

Today, we’re unpacking a simple but powerful productivity truth: 

“What gets scheduled gets done.” — Michael Hyatt 

For busy working moms, the difference between wishing something would happen and actually making it happen often comes down to one thing… 

Putting it on the calendar. 

When something only lives in your head or on a never-ending to-do list, it’s easy for it to get pushed aside. But when you intentionally block time for it… just like you would a meeting or appointment… it becomes a real commitment. 

In this episode, you’ll discover how scheduling your priorities can help you: 

  • Create better work-life balance 
  • Make time for exercise, planning, and family connection 
  • Stop reacting to your schedule and start leading your week 
  • Reduce overwhelm and mental clutter 
  • Build consistency around habits that support your well-being 

You’ll also hear a simple challenge to help you start implementing this mindset right away. 

Because the goal isn’t to pack more into your schedule… 

It’s to make sure the right things actually have a place in your week. 

And tomorrow’s episode will build on this by walking you through a simple weekly reset routine that helps working moms plan their week with clarity and intention. 

💛 Your challenge this week:  Look at your calendar and ask yourself: 

What is one thing that matters to me that I haven’t actually scheduled yet? 

Then put it on your calendar. 

Because when you intentionally make space for the things that matter most… 

They’re far more likely to happen.

300. A Real Conversation About Growth, Anxiety, and Becoming... As I Hit 300 Episodes10 mars 202600:14:26

Hi mama,

As I reached episode 300 of Mom Wife Career Life I found myself reflecting on the past three years of balancing corporate work, motherhood, and building this podcast.

I’m proud to say that through job changes, stress, parenting, and life’s ups and downs, I’ve never missed a week of releasing an episode.

But hitting this milestone also brought an unexpected feeling…

Disappointment.

Because if I’m being honest, I thought life would look a little different by now.

In this episode, I share the reality of the past year… including a health scare, anxiety, grief, tragedy in my community, and the emotional rollercoaster of preparing to send my oldest daughter to college.

Through it all, my priorities have shifted.

Right now they look like:

  • Protecting my health • Being present with my family • Soaking up every moment of having all three of my kids under the same roof

Because sometimes growth isn’t loud.

Sometimes it looks like rest… letting go of timelines… protecting your peace… and showing up for what matters most.

If you’ve ever thought, “I thought I’d be further by now,” please know this:

You’re not behind.

You’re becoming.
