Today's topic: the 3 mistakes I see driven, productive moms making in their daily lives when they’re busy scaling their work-at-home business. Because I want you to take the fast trac…

If your CEO day is going off the rails, here’s a little pep talk for you: Don’t let your entire day be shot just because one 2-hour segment of it got out of whack. Seriously. That’s 2 hours, out of 24. You have all the rest of your day to play with. (Well, not play, but you know what I mean.) You weren’t fooling around. You just got derailed in you…

Have you ever considered reiki as selfcare?? Today’s guest, Amanda Fortin, talks about how she learned to support and take care of herself through the process of becoming a reiki practitioner. (She helps women learn and implement what nurturing yourself means to them - which is very close to my own mission of un-frazzling everyone’s life!) Pop in y…

These days, you have to do a whole lot of spadework before you’re allowed to start something. ​I mean, before you can make a change to your workout habits, you’re supposed to research everything ad nauseum, buy just the right gear, set up your schedule, fill the latest and greatest water bottle – whatever happened to “just trying it” with a little …

Let’s play myth busters again with a common concern of growing and scaling business owners: when do I know it’s time to delegate? When am I allowed to outsource? Here we go. Myth or truth: You can only outsource after you’ve learned to do everything in your business yourself. You’re allowed to delegate, but only after you’ve had your first successf…

Ever wondered how to run your sales process effectively without it taking over your life as a busy mom and business owner?? Today we have a bonus episode for you all about Efficient Sales Conversations for Mom CEOs, with guest Gwen Tinsley. And I’m sure as business owners we can all agree that we LOVE her mission to help female entrepreneurs turn s…

What happens when your kids get home from school? What does that do to your work hours? What do you WANT that to do to your work hours? This is what one of my clients came to me with recently. She was looking forward to the start of the summer break season, but also practically evaluating her schedule and cutting down on client hours so she could s…

Because you can't possibly NOT record more episodes faster, find 9 other things to delegate to your VA, throw your freed-up time at the top 2 revenue generating activities for your business, and clarify your CEO schedule (so you have both the white space and the energetic times you need) after getting an efficiency overhaul. 'Cause with more time f…

This client came to me with what seemed like an overwhelmed schedule issue, that really turned out to be a boundaries problem - so if you think this might be you, listen in. She was a very successful business owner, but she couldn’t seem to make her family life work the way she wanted it to. Her son wouldn’t obey her chore requests, constantly inte…

If you’ve been feeling in the weeds of ordinary, mundane mom life lately - if you need a wake-up call to get back in your purpose and back on track to your God-given goals for your humming-along-nicely business - then here’s a quote for you today. “Are you more committed to keeping the people around you comfortable, or are you more committed to you…

(First, we’re cheating: your business and your home life get separate task lists.) ‘Cause I’m sorry, writing launch emails is a totally different head space than prepping the Instapot. But only doing 3 things is going to force you to prioritize your day. Because if you limit your to-do’s, you’ll finish them every single time. You’ve got this! Alyss…

Newsflash: You do not have to “earn” your way to relaxation and time off. Because ease is not being lazy. Here’s what I’m talking about: “You have to learn to get comfortable with ease.” That’s a quote from Allie Casazza. But is this a struggle for you? I’m guessing it is, because I’m a self-driven, high-achieving girl with a family and a business …

How many of those "need to schedule the next dentist appointment" or "buy my 4-year-old's next season wardrobe" or "plan the family birthday party meal for 10 people" mom to-do's do you have on your mental to-do list? Just sitting there, waiting for you to be able to get around to them? And is it a struggle to find time to complete these extra pers…

Don't do what I did. Yes, this is me, the productivity expert, talking. When I was 6 weeks into starting my online business, I got a case study opportunity and used that to pressure myself to overdeliver. You see, I didn't have a website up - at least, I had a domain name, and some badly written pages, and a bunch of horrible graphics (graphic desi…

What's going to happen to your business if you're a work-at-home mom who's only got 10 hours a week to devote to business needle-moving activities? And is this going to be a death knell to your business ambitions, or can you wriggle any way around this hard hours line? The inspiration for this came from one of my clients, who's got 4 kids at home, …

All right, time to get real with you: here's why working through the weekend is the most inefficient use of your time as a mom biz owner. 'Cause you've got a whole bunch of mom things to do on the weekend, NOT enough time to be frantically writing those launch emails or creating all the graphics for your next carousel post. You're supposed to be ta…

Today we have a bonus episode for you all about Turning Layoffs Into Launches. We’re bringing on a guest, Megan Tobler, to talk about how she got kicked out of the corporate world into the business one - literally! - and had to make her own way - and in the process, discovered a life that was far more than she could have dreamed of. You’ve got this…

Unless you have ironclad off time boundaries, you’re going to naturally view the weekend as the “catch all” for whatever chores and tasks you didn’t have time to get to over the work week - pretty natural to have that view. And then, you spend all of Saturday cramming in your food prep and your house cleaning and your “run the kids to something fun…

Guess what - I wasn’t one of those kids who ran lemonade stands and always knew she wanted to start a company. In fact, I was determined that I would never be an entrepreneur. They were “those people.” They took risks. They thought outside the box. They were creative. And that wasn’t me, or so I told myself. So I kept right on trucking in my daily …

Are you feeling stuck, confined, overscheduled at the thought of building your own “best life” or “mom productivity routine” or all that stuff? Does creating your best weekly calendar sound like just another hoop to jump through, another rigid schedule to keep, that you don’t really want to do? This is where one of my busy clients was when she came…

If it were all about to-do lists, I could just send you home with “the 7 essential hacks to crush your to-do list” and you’d be done and good forever. But it doesn’t work that way. What you put on your to-do list, when you make time for it, how much time you choose for it, when you’re taking breaks between it – all that’s to do with your mindset. A…

(Re-shared with permission from Tiffani's podcast.) Struggling to say no? Feeling overwhelmed with all the demands on your time?

The best work/life balance rhythms aren't static; the best work-from-home family routines aren't set in stone. Babies grow, which means their sleep and food needs change to match. (You have lots of experience with this already!) Well, your business grows, too. Your client load increases You're in a launch, and you need someone else to make lunch fo…

Because those are two different things. And I don’t think most mompreneurs realize the difference. See, being “interested” in change is usually thought to be enough. You’re doing all the things, researching, talking about it, talking up what you’re going to do, what the best options are, etc. But you’re not actually out there, making that calendar …

“I’m just going to be in hustle mode for a bit.” Rewind!! You’re running a business, and your mom friends aren’t, but you’re measuring yourself by the exact same standard. But you’re doing the house, the husband, and the kids AND the marketing, the lead gen, the team, the content, and the courses (or clients) - she isn’t! So it’s time to get clear …

Have you bought into this? Are you constantly fighting against that pull of “I’ve got to tire myself out today”? Here’s what this mentality robs you of. It steals the joy of sitting down when you need a break (‘cause “you’re not done yet”). It takes the end goal of “I did my work, now I get to rest” away from you (because the only rest you get is b…

Your to-do list is stacking up, your own energy is dropping, and you just can’t muster up the brain power to knock out anything else – but all those tasks are super important and really have to get done this week (or month). Sound familiar? If this is you, I just had a client in this exact situation, so I’ll let you listen in on what I told her. (I…

You know all those great dreams and plans you had for yourself when you started working at home? Those “I’m going to love every minute of my flexible, work from home day, get up at 5am every morning, drink a green smoothie, and dive into deep work for 2 hours before my kids are awake”? Yeah, those ones. How about the realistic way to avoid burnout …

I know you've got a nice, everyday, taking-care-of-my clients and handling-my-kids set of routines down. In fact, you really like your typical work-from-home life! But then comes along the reconciling, or the end-of-year accounting, or the back-end inventory-ing, and you HATE those tasks. Not to mention, because you hate them, you've been putting t…

Listen, it’s time you stopped paying the price. The CEO mom guilt price, I mean. The price for not knowing if you’ve got enough time to finish your to-do list today. The price for staying up too late the night before cramming in another website consult and all the quotes to go with it. The price for dithering over what the EXACT next right goal on …

What do you do if you've got kids who go to school (which theoretically means you have lots of nice free time during the day), but that means your morning routine is crazy and your evening homework/food in mouth/drive everybody to extracurriculars routine is even worse? That’s what this client came to me about. She liked the mid-afternoon free time…

You feel like it’s the unspoken rule of your life: moms don’t rest till they’re done. (Which means never - especially since you have a successful business to keep up with.) What our culture tell us: It’s bad to sit down in the middle of the day. It’s wrong to flop halfway through your morning. It’s lazy to quit before the to-do list is all crossed …

We both know that regulating our nervous system is incredibly good for us, and we’d LIKE to be de-stressed, but sometimes it’s hard to get there practically as a mother. You’ve got the kids crawling all over you, maybe another one actually on you (nursing or just hanging on!), school activities to plan, food to eat (oh wait, make), and all the minu…

Have you been going, going, going so hard on your business - and then taking care of the kids - that you're neglecting yourself? Forgetting that you have needs, too, and ignoring the very basic food and shower and sleep priorities that keep you running? Sometimes we just get so caught up in one more work project, and "oh, the kids need this," and "…

Are you still living in discipline mode, forcing yourself to “get it together,” and constantly worrying that you’re not getting your kids-vs.-business balancing act just right? That stops now. Because you’re not going to make it to your income goals (and still LIKE your own life!) if you don’t stop living under this “I can only use my own bootstrap…

You had a difficult birth, or started your business pre-kids, and now post-maternity leave, you’re getting that “time to get things rolling again” feeling for your business. One of my clients was in this exact situation, and to make matters even more dicey, she was looking at a complete business pivot and reboot on top. She said, “I’m feeling a lot…

Yes, I admit it – it’s hard to change. Your brain keeps wanting to pull you back into those same negative thinking patterns of self-scolding each and every time you get something wrong. You’re automatically self-sabotaging every week you build a new habit. Your body’s just trying to keep the status quo (even if your higher self knows better). But y…

As long as you're afraid that the pain of fixing this, getting yourself the solution, is going to be worse than the pain of living with this daily annoyance…. ….You’re not gonna make a change. So what I want you to explore today is why. WHY are you feeling like this? What’s this slightly uncomfortable, not quite fitting anymore in my mom life feeli…

Stop wasting your brain space on forcing yourself to clean the bathroom between client calls, or check off your new water-drinking habit! (Yes, really - this is coming from a time management expert!) Because you’ve GOT to have a structure of some sort for your day, and that means you need (or already use!) a system. A system for what to do when you…
