Holiday Overwhelm? Try This! Nov 21, 2024

Show notes

The holidays can be a magical time, but for many busy moms, they bring stress, overwhelm, and exhaustion. In Episode 211 of The Secrets of Supermom Show, Lori Oberbroeckling, mom of four, corporate leader, and author of Secrets of Supermom: How Extraordinary Moms Succeed at Work and Home—and How You Can Too, shares three simple steps to reduce holiday stress and bring back the joy.

Step 1: Identify Your Shoulds and Have-Tos

Lori suggests starting with a “Holiday Yes List” and a “Holiday No List.” Focus on activities that bring joy and eliminate those that feel like obligations or drain your energy. By identifying what excites you and letting go of what doesn’t, you can reclaim the magic of the season.

Step 2: Plan Your Priorities

To ensure your favorite traditions happen, schedule them on your calendar. Whether it’s decorating the tree, baking cookies, or attending a festive event, intentional planning ensures your most meaningful activities take center stage. For tasks on your “No List,” consider delegating, outsourcing, or skipping them entirely.

Step 3: Protect Your Energy

The holiday season can be demanding, so prioritize habits that keep you energized. Schedule time for self-care, whether it’s getting enough rest, staying active, or enjoying quiet moments to recharge. Eliminating energy drains and focusing on energy boosts will help you stay present and joyful.

By following these steps, you can transform the holidays into a season of joy, connection, and magic.

Energy Bleeds, Blocks, and Boosts: Unlock Your Energy as a Busy Mom Nov 07, 2024

Show notes

In Episode 209 of The Secrets of Super Mom Show, host Lori Oberbrockling dives into the importance of managing your energy as a busy mom. She explains how our energy impacts our productivity, happiness, and ability to make decisions. Lori introduces three key concepts: energy bleeds, energy blocks, and energy boosts.

Energy Bleeds are activities that drain your energy, often leaving you feeling exhausted even before you start. These tasks can feel overwhelming and depleting, requiring all your focus and willpower.
Energy Blocks are tasks that don’t energize you but don’t fully drain you either. They tend to be repetitive or mundane, like certain house chores or work tasks that don’t bring joy but are necessary.
Energy Boosts are activities that fill you with joy, motivation, and energy. These can range from spending time with loved ones, engaging in a hobby, exercising, or working in a flow state.

Lori explains that by recognizing which activities fall into these categories, you can plan your day to ensure a healthy balance of energy-draining tasks and energy-boosting activities. She encourages listeners to track their time to identify what’s draining and what’s energizing, helping them optimize their days for better productivity and happiness.

She also provides actionable tips, such as spreading energy-depleting tasks across multiple days, incorporating energy-boosting activities into those tasks, and finding ways to delegate or eliminate tasks that drain your energy.

By strategically managing energy, moms can avoid burnout, increase productivity, and feel better about their daily routines. Lori wraps up by encouraging listeners to intentionally plan their week to balance energy boosts and bleeds, ensuring they conserve energy throughout the day.

My Busy Mom Schedule: How I Stay Organized and Sane Oct 24, 2024

Show notes

In this episode of The Secrets of Supermom Show, Lori shares her secret to staying productive and reducing overwhelm with her busy mom schedule—weekly planning. By prioritizing energy management and intentionally blocking time on her calendar, Lori is able to hit her goals and still enjoy life’s fun moments. She emphasizes the importance of scheduling time for sleep, movement, food, and personal connection before tackling any commitments.

Lori walks listeners through her planning process, starting with mapping out key commitments like meetings and appointments. Next, she focuses on her “one big goal” for the week, rather than trying to tackle everything at once. She also discusses how to manage a “master to-do list,” which serves as a brain-dumping space for tasks that don’t need immediate attention.

To ensure flexibility, Lori integrates buffer time and white space into her weekly plan. Buffer time allows for unexpected delays or tasks, while white space is scheduled downtime for recharging or handling last-minute tasks. With this strategy, Lori is able to feel in control, be productive, and maintain balance.

If you’re struggling with constant overwhelm and burnout, weekly planning may be the solution you need to stay on top of your commitments while still making time for self-care and fun. For more planning tips and tools, check out the resources in the show notes and explore the Supermom Society community.

Remember, it's not about perfection—it’s about progress. With intentional planning, you can show up as the supermom you’re meant to be!
