I was reflecting on this and asking myself: WHY are we so disappointed?
In Episode 126 of the Fully In It Podcast, I'm sharing:

Would you be willing to massively pivot your business if you realized it wouldn't get you to your family goals? Tanessa Shears, Health Consultant to 6-7 Figure Entrepreneurs, shares on the podcast how she did EXACTLY that. She was over all of the online messaging pushing more for the sake of more, and instead, she created a business where she gets more time with her 1 and 3 year old daughters. During our conversation, we also talked pushing back morning coffee drinking, what to do if your screen time is cutting into bedtime, and how to create more intentionality in your daily routine as a mom entrepreneur.

Today we’re talking about working from home with kiddos present. This is something I saw many more of you mamas jump into during the pandemic, a time where you may have had to work a full-time job at home while also managing your child’s online learning. I supported many moms through this season, and I do believe it has changed the way we think of working from home. I get that there are people who will criticize working from home when your kids are home. But the truth is that many moms do not have the option or the luxury of childcare to choose from. So this episode is geared toward you moms who are trying to manage work or growing a business while you have kids at home part or all of the time.
Also: this week my brand FREE new training "MOM BRAIN: Leverage Your Untapped Genius to Grow a Profitable Business Without Sacrificing Family Life" drops. It's only available for a limited time, so head to: www.happierinmotherhood.com/mom-brain-register to get immediate access.

You may think you need a better website, or better messaging, or more followers on social meida. The most important ingredient for that first sale is the self-belief that there is someone out there that wants what you have to offer.
Would you love to feel more confident growing your business?
How would it feel to trust you have enough time, energy, and capacity to grow it, yes, even if you’ve got kids at home?
Did you know that you being a mom is actually one of the most powerful assets in your business?

Welcome to episode 112 of the Fully In It Podcast. On today’s show I have a guest joining me, Sara Curto, a career coach who’s calling is to help people find their dream jobs and feel more fulfilled in life overall. Sara is one of my favorite people – she’s a mama who is raising her family with so much heart and intention, she’s a fellow entrepreneur who is following her intuition in creating a wildly successful business, a nature enthusiast and travel lover, and finally she was a long-time private client of mine. So it was a complete honor to have her on the show and share more of her story and how she moved from working in corporate to becoming an entrepreneur. We actually recorded this episode last year, but it got put on the backburner as I was dealing with a death in our family and had to put the podcast on pause. The really cool thing about it running right now, if you happen to catch this when it first comes out, is that next week, the first week of April 2023, Sara is running a 5 day training called Fix Your Job Search Coaching Week. You can find out more about it and register by heading to @sarathecareercoach on Instagram.

Welcome to the Happier in Motherhood Podcast, episode 82. Today I have a super special guest on, Sarah Bennett of Onle Organics. Sarah is a homeschooling, nomadic mama of 4 who lives part-time on 10 acres of absolute paradise in MT when she and her family aren’t roaming the US in their Airstream.

How might your life positively change if you commit to digging into the big picture for your family, overcome challenging expectations, and take action on the home and days you want?
Here's the deets:
We will spend about 4-5 hours (weekly group deep-dive video calls) tailoring the Supportive 4 to your life and needs.
Then you'll have my full attention on you during your private 45 minute coaching calls with me for the next 6 months, so that you can quickly overcome obstacles and overwhelm in real time.
Some ways you might use this method if you join me in June:
The BONUS Supportive 4 training in June will be like hitting the accelerator, and I cannot wait to walk a few mamas through this method live and grow together as a tight-knit group.
It'll be the ONLY time I teach it live in 2021, and you'll get access to it, completely for free, when you sign-up for 1:1 coaching by May 31st.
(Are you a current 1:1 client? You'll get access to the video recordings in July because I LOVE you, of course.)
Coaching with me keeps getting better and better.
These spots are going to go fast and are first-come, first served.

In episode 58 we are going to dig into suffering thoughts and once you see them for what they truly are, everything will change.
Do you allow yourself to have dreams anymore? Do you think ever on how you would want your life to look, if it could be whatever it is you wanted?

Why do we women tend to avoid activities or pleasures that we think of as being indulgent? There is a philosophy or a deep-seated cultural belief at play in motherhood currently that glorifies motherhood as a time of sacrifice and service to our families, to the detriment of our own needs.
Have you heard of the Big Snooze? It’s the idea that whenever you’re about to take a leap into the next level of your life, your brain will most likely freak out and create corresponding drama. Why is this? We all have a set of operational beliefs that determine how we show up every single day. These are what maintain your status quo, whatever it is, and help you to stay comfortable and sane on a daily basis. In this episode, I'll share how to face the Big Snooze and leap into the next stage of your life.
What I’m going to share with you today is how to create a powerfully calm parenting approach that will positively impact your relationship with your kids and with yourself. If you’ve been feeling like you’re super struggling with parenting lately, you’re feeling the guilt and the frustration, and you need a clear plan out, this episode is for you.
Today’s episode is also part of a special series of episode topics I’ll be sharing over the next several weeks as I launch my debut e-course called “5 Weeks to a Simplified Home, Calm Mind, and Connected Days.” I’ve taken everything I’ve learned over the last 10 years and through my training in the simplicity parenting method to create a very unique e-course that I truly believe can change your home life in 5 weeks.

On this podcast, I commonly share ways to overcome your own struggles, to be an example for your family, and create the change you want to see in the world in your home first. The way that I teach this is through knowing and living by your family values. In this episode, I’m going to share how the crises of 2020 are the catalyst for refining your family values and beliefs, while making sure you’re actually living by them. This is not a light episode and I will be talking about current events. But this work is necessary and so let’s jump in.
Do you ever feel like you can't get anything done because your kids, your partner, your home, or your situation is holding you back? In this episode, I share the concept of agency or the belief in yourself and your ability to take action in your days. This episode will empower you to see yourself and your situation differently.
Last week we covered what to do if you’re experiencing a problem that makes you feel stuck in your life, which I called tunnel vision. It’s the idea that you can’t see outside your situation because each day looks exactly the same. If you missed the 4 steps to overcoming tunnel vision, go back to episode 28 before listening to this one because they go together. Today, we are going to dive deep into creating a new vision for your family life. I cannot think of a better time to do this work than right now. And I mean right now. It doesn’t matter if you’re listening to this the day it comes out or in 3 years. Do this work right away. Let’s get to it.
Show notes can be found here.
Feeling stuck on the daily? Struggling with a problem you just can't seem to solve? This episode really builds on what I talked about in last week’s episode on leaving the comfort zone and what the last 18 months or so have looked like for us. What I want to talk about in this episode is what to do if you’re in a situation where you can’t see clearly where you’re going because the problems at home are creating tunnel vision.
This episode is going to really cut to the chase of what I’ve been thinking about lately and processing. It’s about getting out of the comfort zone that many of us are currently in and being brave enough to forge the path that you know you are meant for. I’m going to get a bit vulnerable and real with you, something that I don’t always do, but it needs to happen. This isn’t a parenting episode, this isn’t going to give you tips for how to create routines or anything else comforting like that. We’ve had enough of that. Let’s get real, talk truth, and jump on in.
When we think of who we truly want to be as women and mothers, habit shifts usually come to mind as the first step. I'm going to challenge the idea that you need to change yourself and instead encourage you to dig deeper into who you are called to become. This episode will not only give you the tools to change habits, but to choose the right ones for you.

Today’s episode of the Streamlined Motherhood Podcast features Kelsey Wharton, fellow podcaster, creative, and mom of 2. You may know her from the Girl Next Door Podcast with Erica Ladd, from her blog Rising*Shining or from the podcast she shares with her husband, Matrimoney. Kelsey has spent the majority of her adult years working in a full-time job outside the home as an academic science research writer and only recently quit to focus on her non-fiction book proposal. We discuss what it was like for her to experience both working outside the home and in it as well as how she prioritizes her creative work. She offers a litmus test for whether or not the work you’re doing is worth continuing and how limiting labels, such as stay at home mom or working mom, can be. Kelsey also shares time organization strategies and her favorite life hacks for making time for what matters most. We had such a fantastic conversation that I am sure Kelsey will be back on the show again in the future!

Have you ever spent some time thinking about what you really desire out of your life? What would your ideal life look like and how would you use your time? Sometimes it can feel hard to even think like this because of perceived limitations, whether real or not. Sometimes it can feel hard to think about our own dreams when we’re part of a partnership and are worried about how our partner might handle our dreams. And sometimes we might find it hard to think about our own dreams when we have so much responsibility on our shoulders, children to care for, a home to manage, and work to complete. Maybe you have a dream or idea on your mind but worry about the financial aspect of it, would it cost to much, would it use up your family’s precious resources, OR, if it’s a business idea, can I be profitable? In Episode 10, Kate shares a her journey to creating a life that she truly love and offers some practical advice for working through your own limitations.

Welcome to Episode 9 of the Streamlined Motherhood Podcast. Today’s episode is ALL about rest, the kind of rest that you’ve been majorly craving for yourself. Rest isn’t for when your kids are older, when your baby sleeps through the night, or when you aren’t working a full-time job. In this episode, Kate shares practical ways to find more rest now, regardless of your situation. Ready to hear more?

F.lux app for Windows or Mac (this is what I use on my Macbook when working in the evenings. The only thing that I struggle to do with it is edit photos--because the colors aren’t true--so I save photo editing for mid-morning when blue light exposure is normal.) I also heard that the newest Mac update (Nov 2018) includes a blue light filter.
Twilight on Google Play (this is what I use on my phone, and it’s been a huge help! I notice a big difference if I have it turned off, and I make sure every evening around dinner time that it’s turned on.)
I’ve been planning to get these blue light filtering glasses for myself and my family so that we can watch family movies in the evenings and not have it interrupt our sleep. (**affiliate link)

Have you ever felt stuck or in between where you were and where you want to be? Have you ever wondered when life would get back to normal? In Episode 6 of the Streamlined Motherhood Podcast, Kate is talking about liminal space, or the in-betweens that naturally happen in life.
Mentioned in this episode:
Franciscian Friar Richard Rohr on liminal space: “where we are betwixt and between the familiar and the completely unknown. There alone is our old world left behind, while we are not yet sure of the new existence. That’s a good space where genuine newness can begin. Get there often and stay as long as you can by whatever means possible…This is the sacred space where the old world is able to fall apart, and a bigger world is revealed. If we don’t encounter liminal space in our lives, we start idealizing normalcy. The threshold is God’s waiting room. Here we are taught openness and patience as we come to expect an appointment with the divine Doctor.”
“You Are a Badass: How to Stop Doubting Your Greatness and Start Living an Awesome Life” by Jen Sincero. This is one of my favorite books for breaking out of a rut and moving toward the future you desire.**
One of my favorite quotes by Jen Sincero says this: ”your job isn’t to know the how, it’s to know the what and to be open to discovering and receiving the how.”
Maria Montessori and the Stages of Development in Childhood: Absorbent Mind, Reasoning Mind, and the Acquisition of Culture. Read more about it here.
Kim John Payne on the concept of Soul Fever in our children. For more on the topic, read his book “Simplicity Parenting” which is one of my favorite parenting books.**
Calm bedtime practice of prayer or affirmations around a candle excerpted from Sharifa Oppenheimer’s book “Heaven on Earth: a Handbook for Parents of Young Children”.**
Sleep Meditations for Kids app by Christiane Kerr. Available on iTunes and in the Google Play store.
How to tell if you’re experiencing Liminal Space
Ask yourself:
Steps to Work Through Liminal Space
Jen Sincero quote on faith: “Faith is having the audacity to believe in the not-yet seen. Faith is the muscle you use when you decide to blast outside of your comfort zone and transform your life into something that’s practically unrecognizable to you in your present reality. Faith smothers your fear of the unknown. Faith allows you to take risks.”

Do you ever wonder why your child does the things that they do? Have you ever worried about the impact you are having on their growth and development as a person? In this episode, Kate deep dives into what makes our kids unique, how to love and appreciate them for who they truly are, and how to support them with patience and love from infancy through childhood. This in-depth episode will leave you feeling encouraged and prepared to guide your children to become independent and amazing adults. Mentioned in this episode:
What would you do if your newborn baby was sick and you suspected you knew the reason? How far would you go to help your child be healthy and also use your knowledge to benefit other people? That’s the big question that my guest, Rosica Petrova, asked herself when her son was born. She was a mother on a mission, seeking answers to his problems and —when no one else could solve the problem— she did herself, ultimately leading to the founding of her company, Home of Wool. What I loved about chatting with Rosi is her passion for creating a healthy home. Rather than share platitudes, she has the real life experience and the expertise to back it up. She shares the latest research on what toxic materials you should avoid, the best choices for creating a healthy home, and one super easy step you can do today, no purchase necessary. As I mentioned in the interview, I am very passionate about creating a healthy home environment for my family, which is how I came across Rosi and her business in the first place. My family and I were looking for mattress alternatives to conventional options and her gorgeous, handmade wool mattresses were everything I had dreamed of to create a healthy and non-toxic sleep environment for my family. That was a huge step to take and there are so many other little tweaks you can make to improve your home environment. I want to help you take those steps, so make sure you're subscribed at my website, the Streamlined Life. Ready for your own Home of Wool bedding?
