[172] How to Get Aligned with Your Priorities and Reach Your Goals with 15 Minutes Feb 24, 2022

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 just make it a priority and you will get it done. You have so many priorities and as a mom, it can get pretty stressful trying to sort things out. My guest, Cara Harvey, is here to help.

In this episode, we unpack some of the topics mentioned in her new book called The 15 Minute Formula. This book is what you need because it is a productivity book geared towards moms. Typically, most productivity books are written by men, which they're great, but they don't take into account a lot 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 in the book, The 15 Minute Formula. She also talks 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 and how we can be more aligned in our life by knowing what season we're in, and actually setting things up so that we can be more in alignment with the season we're in versus trying to jam pack our days, weeks and months with things and just burn ourselves out. So if you are looking for some different ways of being more productive, you have to listen to this episode.

ABOUT CARA
Cara is a wife, mom to a 15-year-old stepson, 6-year-old daughter, 4-year-old son, and a woman of God. She works as a mom empowerment coach and her mission is to provide women with the tools, resources, and community to reach their goals, empower themselves, find their happiness, and live a life by design. She does this via her blog, podcast, virtual community groups, and e-courses that help women learn to balance their lives, finances, schedules, health, and themselves!

[170] Tips and Strategies I Learned to Pay Off ALL My Credit Cards Fast By Changing One Thing Feb 15, 2022

Show notes

Send me a text

One thing that I have never been proud of in my life is my finances. In particular, the debt that I had accumulated since dental school. I literally would have a panic attack anytime I looked at my student loan balances. As a result, I stopped looking at them. It is silly when I think about it because I know that I could never get my student loans paid off in a reasonable amount of time if I didn't even know the balance.
After struggling alone I got a money coach that has changed my life forever. I met and started with working with Rho after seeing her own success with paying off her student loan debt in a short amount of time. Now that I have paid off my credit credits totaling over $20,000 before my goal of 9 months, I have to let you in on the secret.
In this episode, Rho and I are having a conversation about our journey together that lead to this milestone. The biggest thing that Rho helped me with was my mindset. Something we talk about extensively in this episode. In addition to tackling my mindset, Rho helped me to get a budget together to tackle my goals and ultimately helped me to pay off my credit card, plus one of my student loans all within a six-month period!
If you want to know the secret that Rho helped me unlock to pay off my credit cards fast, you have to check out this episode.

[169] When and How to Get Started Teaching Your Baby Sign Language Feb 08, 2022

Show notes

Send me a text

Communication is so important, especially when we are communicating with our kids. When our kids are little it seems like most of the time we get things right because of intuition. But what if your child could communicate with you clearly as young as 9 months old? I know it would make my life a whole lot easier.
In today's episode, we are talking all about using sign language to communicate with our children. This is something that I have grown a passion for only because, one, there are several patients of mine who are actually deaf or hard of hearing and use sign language. And, two, my son has a love for sign language because that is his preferred way of communicating.
In this episode, my guest Lauren shares:

How she got started learning signing language
How early we can start teaching our babies to sign language
What signs we should start teaching your babies when they are first learning sign language
Why we should use sign language to teach toddlers about their feelings
Resources to get you started learning sign language
