The phrase of the episode is "I'm only one mommy," which means I only have so much energy to go around and I can't be in two places at once. Do you often feel like this?

I've made the executive decision to -> pause the podcast - for six weeks while I put my limited energy and undivided focus toward creating and managing the Slow Down Time course. I want to give the magical mamas who signed up the best experience possible.

In the meantime, please catch up on any episode you missed. Listen to the podcasts of other guests (the links are in the show notes of each episode). Send episodes to friends like your good fortune depended on it. And follow the Slow Down Time journey on Instagram @megs.malloy

I'm livin la vida Slow Down Time!

What is Slow Down Time?

It's calming your nervous system so you have the capacity to soak up all the joy your kids can possibly bring you and create stronger bonds with them as a result.

In this episode, I share a day in the life of what it feels like to practice slowing down time.

The word of the day is savor which means to taste or smell with pleasure : relish. : to delight in : enjoy. savoring the moment.

If you missed the opportunity to take the very first Slow Down Time which starts Monday, July 16, 2023....fear not....this will be an evergreen course in the future. In the meantime, here is the website.

Thank you so much for pressing play!

Get ready to be blown away as we introduce an incredible guest on today's episode! Our mutual pal and amazing business coach, Darrah Brustein, introduced me to the remarkable, Dr. Mandy Lehto. I'm honored that Mandy accepted my invitation to join us and share her experiences as a working mom, along with some invaluable tips to prevent burnout.

Dr. Mandy is a former Director at a global investment bank turned executive coach for senior leaders going exploring next career steps, navigating a transition, starting a new role or experiencing their own burnout (although no one would probably know because they appear so put-together).

She's not only smart, funny, and professional, but also down to earth. I guarantee you'll love this episode filled with practical advice. And be sure to check out Dr. Mandy's own podcast, "Enough, the Podcast," for more amazing content!

The word of the day is gregarious which means fond of company and sociable. An equally worthy word of the day that Mandy used is "crusty."

Awareness of a sabotaging thought process, at dinner in Las Vegas, creates an intention to grow.

The word of the day is metacognition which means awareness and understanding of one's own thought processes.

If you would like help maturing your sabotaging thoughts and behaviors into compassionate, curious, and sage-like ones, then join me for the Megafest PQ party starting in August 2023.

In the meantime, if you're not already a buddy on Instagram, check me out @megs.malloy. I love conversations more than pontificating. Please send me a DM to suggest a future episode topic or ask me a question.

Michelle Obama says, "Practice who you want to be every single day." I had already planned to talk about practice but then as luck would have it, I came across this quote. If we know we want to be a patient, fun, present mom who is calm and enjoys the little things, then we must practice being that person every day.

Jack Johnson says, "It's always better when we do it together." And so I am putting together a group of moms who want to have no regrets in their own short, precious life. They want to soak up all the joy of their child's youth. There is joy all around us. We can let it pass through us and continue to experience more and more happiness.

If you want to practice together, send me a message or DM. I'm opening Slow Down Time soon and I'd love for you to be part of it.

Thank you so much for listening!!!
