    114. Trusting Your Intuition & the Spirit of Your Business with Olivia Bowen

    So much of building a business comes down to strategy: the plan, the offer, the metrics. But sometimes you can have all of that figured out and still feel stuck, unsure why a certain part of your business feels harder than it should. If you’re open to getting a little woo-woo with me, this episode is going to give you a different way of looking at it. This week I'm joined by Olivia Bowen, a coach who blends strategy, intuition, energy work, and spirituality in a way that I was initially pretty skeptical of but came to really love. Olivia did a full energy reading on my business, walking through each chakra, or energy center, and sharing what she picked up on. We talk through what the spirit of my business is trying to tell me, how that actually translates to the day-to-day of running a business, and how you can tune into the spirit of your own business.

    113. When Life Doesn't Go According to Plan

    Life rarely goes according to plan. Maybe you set goals for yourself this year, like starting a business, growing your income, or creating healthier routines, and suddenly everything feels off track. Summer schedules, sick kids, unexpected obligations, and shifting priorities can throw us for a loop. Mom friends, if you are feeling frustrated, behind, or like your momentum is slipping, you're not alone. This week, I revisit one of my previous episodes originally about sick season, but the lessons apply to any situation where life throws you off course. I share practical mindset shifts and strategies to help you navigate the unexpected and regain a sense of control.

    What Coaching Actually Looks Like & What You Can Expect

    It's hard to imagine what coaching looks like when you've never experienced it before. What happens in a session? How long do you work with the coach? What kind of results will you see from coaching? Well, I answer these questions and more in this episode all about what coaching is and what you can expect from it. I talk through the process I use with my clients, including how I guide moms to identify the areas in their life and business that feel stuck, create clarity around priorities, and take practical steps toward their goals. You’ll hear how small, intentional actions in coaching sessions can help moms feel lighter, more focused, and capable of moving forward, even amidst the chaos of life and work.

    How Moms Can Shift Victim Mentality & Manage Mental Load with Zahra Premji

    Moms often carry an invisible weight: the mental load of managing family, work, and everything in between.

In this episode, I talk with life and mindset coach Zahra Premji about how moms can start to shift victim thinking and manage their mental load. We explore why moms often get stuck in overthinking and taking on too much responsibility at once, and how this pattern keeps you from taking aligned action. Zahra shares strategies for identifying the mental load, understanding where it comes from, and breaking the cycle so you can reclaim your energy, focus, and sense of control.

    How to Schedule Your Free Time First This Summer

    Summer often comes with a shift in schedules, extra family commitments, and a sense that everything feels busier than usual. For moms, it can be easy to let your own time and energy slip to the bottom of the list while trying to keep everything else running smoothly.
