In this episode, I dive into the overwhelming world of over scheduling our kids.

As a mom of 4, I've experienced the chaos of shuttling kids to countless activities and feeling burnt out.

I share how taking a step back and focusing on fewer, meaningful activities brought more joy and connection to our family. This shift allowed me to nurture my kids' true interests and have precious downtime with my family.

But a great place to start is joining The Reset Week today on May 12th!

It's designed to help you prioritize YOU first so that you can get in tune with what is best for you and your family to feel more at ease.

Hate that you are still being disappointed with what your partner has planned for him and kids to shower you with on Mother's Day? I've been there many times. I've been a mom now for over 10 years 🤪

This episode will break down what has worked for me and that is something we can work on inside my coaching programs.

Don't miss this so you can turn your Mother's Day around if you haven't already!

But note -- I'm not a relationship expert by any means but having weathered years of infertility and now parenthood, our relationship has been and still continues to be tested everyday. And so I know first hand that having support from a coach or a therapist makes a world of a difference.

Whatever your support looks like, the best place to start is with prioritizing YOU.

Here's where My Reset Week can help get you started. And you can take advantage of free accountability and coaching to help you get back to feeling like motherhood hasn't sucked out every bit of your personality starting May 12th!

Letting Go of Guilt: Embracing Imperfect ParentingI dive into the idea that 'doing less is more' for us moms. We often feel overwhelmed by doing every little thing for our kids, and I share my personal struggle with this. I talk about the guilt of not doing everything and the pressure from social media to parent perfectly.

Instead, I focus on helping my kids become independent in age-appropriate ways, setting boundaries, and not worrying about being judged. And what reconnecting with our kids in meaningful ways can look like. Also explore the importance of embracing our individual family's values and finding joy in the moment.

Don't miss out on joining the reset on May 12th to focus on yourself and reset your parenting approach.

Let's embrace imperfection together!
