[[REWIND]] [172] How to Get Aligned with Your Priorities and Reach Your Goals with 15 Minutes May 02, 2023

Show notes

Send me a text

Do you feel like there is never enough time in the day to get things done? It doesn't help when you hear gurus tell you to prioritize it and you will get it done. You have so many priorities, and it can get pretty stressful trying to sort things out as a mom. My guest, Cara Harvey, is here to help.

In this episode, we unpack some of the topics in her new book, The 15-Minute Formula. This book is what you need because it is a productivity book geared toward moms. Typically, most productivity books are written by men, which is excellent, but they don't consider many of the struggles of us moms.

In addition, Cara shares her story and how she even got started with A Purpose Driven Mom. And then what led her to write the book, The 15-Minute Formula. She also talked about priorities with us and how to use micro priorities, which was something new that I learned from her. And then, lastly, we talked about seasons. How can we be more aligned in our life by knowing what season we're in and setting things up so that we can be more aligned with the season we're in versus trying to jam-pack our days, weeks, and months with things and burn ourselves out? So if you are looking for different ways of being more productive, you must listen to this episode.

In Bethany Frankel's book Business Is Personal, she says … Sometimes a red light is a green light. Sometimes saying no to something allows us to say yes to something else.

How many times have said yes or committed to something only to find out it takes more time and energy than your expected? When you compound this with other commitments, you end up stressed, burned out, resentful, and overwhelmed.

In this episode, I will share a simple way to get out of the habit of saying yes to everyone so that you have more time and less stress.

[201] It's Okay to Stop Doing it All Mar 21, 2023

Show notes

Send me a text

I was talking to a mom that was completely overwhelmed and was almost in tears with all of the demands she had in her life.
She wanted some relief because she hadn’t had a break for weeks. Then after she realized that she was the only one talking, she asked me about what I do for work and what the kids are into.
After telling her that I work full time, I’m a reservist in the Navy, run Real Happy Mom, and started a business with my husband, she looked at me like a unicorn and asked me how I do it all.

The truth is … I don’t. In this episode, I brought my friend, Alicia Cohen, to share how doing it all is robbing us of freedom and happiness. Plus, how we can shift out of doing it all.
