Are you committed to being completely offline during your vacations?

In order to balance life as an ambitious person, you must learn to feel “enough” no matter how much you do or what anyone else thinks. Enoughness is the key that helps an ambitious person slow down and feel satisfied in who they are and what they have accomplished so they don’t burn out. In today’s episode I interview Misty Dykema, a past client and friend, who shares some of the foundational mindset shifts and practices that have helped her create a foundation of enoughness and belief in herself.
Have you ever asked yourself “I have everything I want, so why don't I feel happy?” What I have found is that higher achievers have patterned into themselves a feeling of “not enough” which makes it difficult to feel happy. So, to make feeling happy an easier and more regular experience, it is something you must practice. Today on the podcast I want to teach you the simplest way to practice feeling happy, in 30 seconds or less. This daily practice will help bring you back into the moment and give your body a full happiness experience that will help to make all those “good feelings” more of the default.
There are 8 core beliefs that will unlock your ability to feel balanced. No matter how much you accomplish, no matter how much time you spend with your kids and no matter what anyone else thinks, when you are able to hold onto these 8 core beliefs, no matter what, you will be able to prioritize yourself and your family without compromising your career. Today on the podcast, I am diving deep into these 8 beliefs and why they are such an important part of creating balance.
Hard days happen. It’s something that we have to accept as human beings. But hard days don’t have to derail you. You can still be productive, efficient, and kind even when you’re not having the best day. In today’s episode, I want to share with you 3 key things you can do to help care for yourself on a hard day so that you can still show up as the mom, leader and person you want to be.
Can you really create balance with only changing your mindset? For most working moms, it feels like a lot more needs to shift other than your thoughts, but for my client Meredith, a mindset shift was what really made a difference. Her circumstances are almost exactly the same and yet she is out of survival mode, feeling engaged and present with her kids AND the changes feel completely sustainable. How did she do it? She changed her thoughts. Listen in as she shares more of her coaching journey and the mindset tools that really made a difference.
Many ambitious women think, “If I could just get a little more done, then I could feel calmer and more present.” It feels like the solution to feeling more balanced is having a shorter to-do list and learning to achieve more in less time. And it is true! Having less on your list helps alleviate stress and anxiety. It helps end overwhelm so you walk away from your workday feeling productive and satisfied (which is very important in creating a balanced life). In today’s episode, I decided to get super practical and walk you through my top three strategies to being more productive. You ready? Let’s get to it!
For many working moms “having it all” feels like an impossible promise where a meaningful career and life as a mom somehow feel balanced.

Today, I am setting the record straight. I am sharing exactly what “having it all” means to our culture, the missing piece of the puzzle that creates a “have it all” kind of life and then offer the first step in making it happen.
