The 5-Minute Shift For Moms Stephanie Rosenfield

On this episode of The 5-Minute Shift, we're diving deep into a topic that's near and dear to many of us - self-care. We all know it's important, but let's face it, life can get crazy, and self-care often takes a back seat. But trust me, it's not a luxury; it's a lifeline for both you and those around you.

Today, I've got something special for you - an interview with Emily Nichols, who's all about making self-care a habit, even when life is throwing curveballs. She's a Habit and Fitness coach and the host of the "Habit Hack Your Health" podcast. Her mission is to help busy working moms, just like you and me, find simple ways to take care of ourselves, both emotionally and physically, and transform into the best versions of ourselves.

Emily shares her journey into habit hacking and how it has helped her and her family thrive in their busy lives. She emphasizes the importance of redefining health and offers strategies for habit hacking to achieve better physical and mental well-being. Tune in to learn more about Emily's approach to habit hacking and how it can transform your life.

In this episode, we're diving into the final part of our three-part series on emotional management. As a quick recap, my model of emotional management is all about being in control of ourselves in tricky and frustrating situations, not just staying calm.

In the previous episodes, we explored the first two legs of the emotional management table - Emotional Diffusion and Different Communication. If you haven't listened to those yet, I highly recommend going back and giving them a quick listen before continuing.

The third and final part of my emotional management model is Self-Confidence. However, this isn't about superficial confidence that you might find in a magazine article. Instead, it's about empowering yourself to make decisions that align with your values and beliefs, even when societal expectations or expert opinions may differ.

True self-confidence allows us to trust our own judgment and not be swayed solely by others' opinions. When we combine emotional diffusion, different communication, and self-confidence, we create a sturdy table to respond and be in control in the way we want.

Remember, we don't have to use these tools 100% of the time. Life is full of complexities and challenges, but having these strategies in our toolkit empowers us to create the motherhood and life we desire.

You know that something needs to change - you're feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, and annoyed, moving further away from that lighter, goofier, fun mom you wanna be. 

Each of these short, 5-minute podcast episodes gives you a strategy to use immediately and shift towards the confident mom who feels proud of herself and RELIEVED that you are finally figuring this out.

Today, we're diving into part two of our three-part series on emotional management. As we mentioned before, emotional management is all about gaining control over how we respond in tricky situations, not just remaining calm. 

In the previous episode, we explored the first leg of the emotional management table - Emotional Diffusion. Once we have control over our emotions, the next step is to learn how to communicate effectively with others.

Surprisingly, many of us have never been specifically taught how to do this, and we often find ourselves either repeating what we've seen modeled for us or simply reacting based on our feelings. The framework of Different Communication can help you find more effective approaches than the ones you might have learned, and in this episode I share powerful stories from my work with clients.

You can apply these insights in various scenarios, like hectic mornings when you're rushing everyone out the door. Reflect on how you'd want to be communicated with, and then try using those same approaches with your loved ones.

Remember, emotional management is like building a sturdy table with three legs - Emotional Diffusion, Different Communication, and the final one we'll explore in the next episode, Self-Confidence. Until then, keep practicing emotional management and experiencing the positive shifts it brings to your life. Thanks for tuning in!

You know that something needs to change - you're feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, and annoyed, moving further away from that lighter, goofier, fun mom you wanna be.

Over the next three episodes, we're delving into the essential concept of emotional management and how it can empower you to handle tricky situations with control and clarity. This powerful framework consists of three fundamental buckets: Emotional Diffusion, Different Communication, and Self-Confidence.

Emotional Diffusion, the first bucket, is all about regaining control when faced with triggers that might push us to the breaking point. And in my framework, there are just three simple steps, that will allow you to respond purposefully.

Remember, emotional management isn't about being calm all the time, but rather being in control of your responses. By filling these three buckets and modeling these strategies, you can create a sturdier emotional table not only for yourself but also for your kids and those around you.

Stay tuned for the next two episodes, where we'll delve into Different Communication and Self-Confidence, completing the emotional management framework that will empower you to navigate tricky situations with grace and poise. Remember, it's not about perfection, but having these tools readily available to transform your responses and foster healthier connections with others.

Abbey is refreshingly honest and open, and she'll even share her own experience of going "no contact" with her mother. So if this hits close to home for you, trust me, she's got some great insights to offer.

This episode is all about healing and growth. If you've ever struggled with challenging family dynamics, you won't want to miss it. Abbey's down-to-earth and compassionate approach will leave you feeling empowered and ready to embark on your own journey of healing the mother wound.
