2026/03/25

Have you ever started your day with a solid plan only to have it completely unravel before 9am? Maybe it’s a last-minute dentist appointment, a sick kid at home, a forgotten lunch that needs to be dropped off, or just trying to get everyone out the door on time and something goes sideways. Suddenly, your carefully planned schedule is thrown off, your timeline shifts, and you feel like you’re playing catch-up for the rest of the day. And if you’re anything like most busy moms, it’s not just one

Have you ever looked at your calendar, your to-do list, and your energy level and thought, “There is absolutely no way I can fit a workout into this season of life”? Between work, kids, meals, laundry, and everything else, taking care of yourself can start to feel optional. And if you’re being honest, exercise and nutrition are usually the first things to fall off the list.That’s why I’m so excited about today’s conversation.

Happy Spring! You know what this means? Summer is coming… and if you’re a busy mom, you might already feel it creeping up on you. The school year is on its final lap, the kids are ready to sleep in, and suddenly your normal routines are about to disappear. The structured school days, the predictable schedules, the quiet work hours while the kids are in class — all of that shifts pretty quickly once summer begins. And while summer can be such a fun and meaningful season with a rhythm all its own,

Have you ever had one of those days where everything feels urgent? The emails. The laundry. The deadline. The permission slip. The text you forgot to respond to. The project that’s been sitting there staring at you.You sit down to start… and instead of clarity, you feel stuck. Because where do you even begin when it all feels important. This is a question I find myself asking often — and I have a feeling you might be wrestling with it too. Where do you start when everything seems urgent? In

When you wake up in the morning, what gets you out of bed? What actually starts your day? A few days ago, as I was getting going, I found myself thinking about those questions. And if I’m honest, most mornings as moms, our feet hit the floor and our minds immediately fill with to-do lists, responsibilities, and everything we need to manage that day. For so many moms, it’s not just tasks—it’s the weight of it all. Feelings of overwhelm, loneliness, anxiety, or even quiet discouragement can creep in

Valentine’s Day can sometimes feel like just one more thing on an already full plate. The decorations, the cards, the candy, the class parties—and making sure everything is allergy-friendly and sent in on time—it can add up quickly. Even as kids get older and some of that fades, there’s still pressure to make it special, including trying to plan a romantic evening with your spouse when you’re already tired and stretched thin. In today’s episode, I’m sharing a simpler approach. I’ll walk you through

You open the fridge, hoping for inspiration, but everything feels like too much effort — so you order takeout. Again. Yep, me too.

Do you still have some of that New Year energy? January has a special energy of newness - motivation, dreams, plans, goals, hopes for next year. This big new energy can help motivate us to make goals, like going to the gym every day, eating healthy, reading more books, getting a new planner, or picking a word for the year. The only problem with all these new goals or resolutions is that they usually end by mid January if not sooner. So how can you actually create goals, and accomplish them? It’s

Happy New Year, and welcome to 2026. Before we jump in, I want to invite you to take a deep breath right where you are. Let your shoulders drop, unclench your jaw, and remember this: you don’t have to rush into this year already feeling behind. A new year can come with so much pressure — new goals, new routines, new expectations — and yet what so many of us really want is something much simpler: to feel calm, clear, and supported in our real, everyday lives.

How was your Christmas? Christmas Day is always so magical, but once the presents are opened and life starts to settle back into normal, I sometimes feel that quiet post-holiday letdown. Do you feel that too? That’s why I love this in-between time after Christmas. The days between December 25th and early January are actually called Christmastide — that cozy stretch where you don’t quite know what day it is, and everything feels a little slower.

You might feel this way too as your calendar starts to fill up with social events, your to-do list grows in leaps and bounds, and the amount of things you need to remember to bring or buy or be somewhere is absurd! So as this month jumps into full swing I was thinking, what can I take off my plate? What can I say no to, or make it easier, or delay? In today’s episode we are going to talk through
