Ep 38. How to Prioritize + Implement Self-Care In Your Life

I'll be honest with you, self-care hasn't always been a priority for me. I used to find myself extremely overwhelmed and irritable asking myself "Who is going to take care of me" and one day it dawned on me... If I don't advocate for my own self-care no one will. 
Self-care is is a mindset and a practice. It's intentionally evaluating what your needs are and what to do to meet those needs. This daily practice and it's not something that you are just going to magically become great at overnight. It's about small steps and it's about progress.
The way we show up for ourselves, not just impacts us. It impacts your children, your spouse and everyone else around you. 
In today's episode I'm going to show you 5 steps to easily implement self-care into your routine and make it part of your reality.

Ep 35. How to Recover After a Mommy Meltdown

Do you ever find yourself yelling and snapping at your kids and feel like it's a never ending cycle? 
This is a conversation that many mamas shy away from. We don't really like to admit that we sometimes lose it, and these meltdowns can often leave us feeling resentful towards our kids and like a complete failure as a mom. 
In today's episode, I am going to be teaching you my 5 step system for how to recover after a meltdown.
• Recognize your responsibility + release any guilt• Reflect on the situation• Get to the root of the anger• Reconcile + reconnect • Recharge 
Often the anger we express on the surface is only a part of the story. Typically we are masking a deeper emotion such as stress, frustration, embarrassment, pride, etc. I've included a graphic I created to show this anger iceberg analogy by the Gottman Institute. This is going to be extremely when you're working through step 3. 
It is so important to be self-aware and walk through each of these steps. Once you've had a chance to implement this strategy a few times, teach it to your children and your spouse and empower them to recover from their own meltdowns and prevent them in future.

Ep 33. What to Outsource In Your Business to Increase Profitability

I'm excited to dive into Part Two of The One Woman Show Series, all about what to outsource in your business. I'm going to give you some simple steps to take and practical examples that will help you brainstorm what to outsource in your business and how to know when you're ready.
Last week we talked about outsourcing at home and how simple it can really be to free your time, energy, and mental head space by getting support from your family and outsourcing simple things like grocery shopping and house cleaning. If you haven't listened to that one yet, you can give it a listen here.
It is my hope that I can ease some of the hesitation you may be feeling surrounding spending more money. And why it may be true that you can do it all, it doesn't mean that you should.
Remember, you don't have to have a team to start outsourcing. You can start with apps and programs, move your way up to hiring contractors, and then eventually one day hire full time employees. So, for the purpose of today’s post, I’m focusing on just those first two. Let’s jump in!

Ep 32. What to Outsource at Home to Give You Time Freedom

Are you running a one woman show? Wearing all the hats and juggling all the things?  If so, I can totally relate. There was a time, when I thought, as a mother and a wife, that there were just certain things I was expected and required to do. It's taken some time, and practice, but I no longer run a one woman show!! 
 
Today's episode is part one of The One Woman Show series. I am so excited to chat with you today about this super important topic of asking for help by outsourcing some of your responsibilities at home.
