    35 - The Missing Piece of the Optimization Conversation for Mompreneurs

    Send us Fan Mail Lately it feels like we're constantly being bombarded with advice for optimizing everything in our life and business---from how we have the back-end of our business work down to how we get dinner on the table.  There's nothing inherently wrong with optimizing, but very often, so much of this optimization "advice" has an underlying energy of trying do to more and squeeze more and more and more into our already jam-packed days as mompreneurs.  The key piece missing from this optimization conversation isn't about optimizing so we can fit in more---it's about taking a step to look back at what we're trying to optimize for in the first place.  So join me inside of this conversation to think through:  Objectively looking at how you're currently spending your time to get a sense of what you're currently optimizing forExploring areas in your life and desires in your heart that often get overlooked and perpetually placed on the backburner of your priorities list---that you wish didn't!How to actually begin making optimization tweaks that feel aligned for your current season of life and motherhoodProactively planning ahead to intentionally optimize for your ideal version of summerIf you've been having those days recently where you go to bed feeling like you didn't get to do the things you wanted to do, this conversation is a gentle reminder for how you can fix that3 Here's the 4-step process we go over inside of the episode: Record how you spend your time each day for a series of 3 - 4 days (ie. tracking what you did with your time for 30-minute to 60-minute increment and tracking this information somewhere)Reflect (without judgment) on where your time has been going versus where it's not going (that you wish it would). To help with this, you can also do a brain dump for 10 minutes writing down all the things that if added to your day would bring you joy, peace, or a feeling of aliveness!Explore any beliefs or autopilot scheduling habits that may be contributing to you not spending more of your time the way you actually wantDecide on necessary habit changes or scheduling tweaks that would better optimize your time for the things that energize you and bring you joyGet access to the Success Recalibration Ritual here!

    32 - Using AI & Social Media Consciously as You Grow Your Business

    Send us Fan Mail Have you ever caught yourself scrolling without really meaning to and then coming out the other side feeling smaller instead of inspired? Have you been feeling pressure lately to use AI for more and more and more. You're not alone! In this episode we're getting real about two of the most talked-about tools in our lives right now: social media and AI. This isn't about villainizing either one. It's about learning to use both consciously — in a way that actually serves you, your business, and your goals. Because here's the truth: staying on top of trends and looking for inspiration seems harmless, but if you're not careful, it can quietly derail your growth and your joy. In this episode we cover: The scrolling spiral and why it happens even to the most intentional of usWhy the answers for what to do next in your business are already inside youThe environmental and ethical realities of AI The "you'll be playing catchup" story and why it's just that, a storyThe soul and human evolution piece: what it means to be a conscious creator in a world that just wants you to consume and outsourceHow I personally use AI in my business and what I don't use it forA game plan for using both social media and AI more mindfully going forwardWhether you're feeling overwhelmed by the pace of it all or just looking for permission to slow down and do things your own way, this episode is for you.  After you listen to this episode, leave me a comment with your thoughts!  Closing reflection tasks for conscious AI & social media usage:  Do your research: Think of the AI tools and social media platforms you use — do some digging to learn about the founders, who's creating them, who's funding them, and reflect on whether those are organizations you want to supportBefore you use social media or AI: Ask yourself — does this align with my values? Write down your intention — what are you using it for and for how long? Set a timer. Think of it as your flotation device.After you use social media or AI: Check in with yourself — did that make you feel empowered? Did it energize you? Save you time? Allow you to make progress with your business goals in a helpful way? Did it make you feel disconnected from yourself?Make a working boundaries list: What will you use each tool for? What won't you use it for? Let that list be a living document that reflects your values, not anyone else's. When you feel the urge to doom scroll or consult AI for everything under the sun: Come back to this reminder — you are the only one that can do what you do the way that you do it. The answers are already inside you. For as much time as you turn your attention and answer searching outward, spend double the amount of time looking inward.mompreneurs, mom business owners, growing your business, solopreneur Get access to the Success Recalibration Ritual here!
