    62. Becoming an Entrepreneur + mom on a mission with Amy Traugh

    The year 2020 impacted us all and for my guest and friend, Amy Traugh, it changed her life. Amy took a voluntary furlough from a career in physical therapy to home school her children during that time and then build her first business. In this conversation we discuss that journey of building her first successful business which in turn helped her discover an even deeper passion, empowering women with the skills to do the same. Amy is a mother of 2, the founder of the community Moms on a Mission, host of The Motivated Mompreneur (with over 200 episodes in 1 year!) and a Business Mentor. This local Ohio woman is a friend to me, an inspiration to me and I hope that she encourages you, I hope that our chat about mom expectations makes you feel a little less alone and I really hope if you are able you will join us at her event CONFIDENCE SELLS on OCT. 12, 2023 in Canton, OH. Tickets are on sale through the end of Sept. 2023. Click here to check out more about the 1 day event. Click here to purchase Follow Amy on Instagram

    59. Time Management Tip - Structure your day like a football game

    I am so excited to share this time management method / idea that came to me last week. In real time I've only been practicing it for a few days but I wanted to put this out there for you all to try ALONG with me, because while it ultimately may NOT work for me, it may be just the mindset or structure shake up that you needed. The basis concept is dividing up your day into 4 quarters with a halftime in the middle. For all the details and how I'm specifically implementing this with my schedule as a work from home entrepreneur and a mom you will just have to listen in. :) Follow along with my day to day, all things mom life and business building at @courtney_wendzicki on Instagram Thank you SO Much for listening and if you found what you heard today to be inspiration or educational I ask that you share it to socials or with a friend :)

    4 Tips to Navigate FOMO (fear of missing out) and Comparison

    So many of you shared with me that you struggle with comparison and or the fear of missing out. ...and in tune with that, for today's episode, I do some story-telling surrounding a hard decision that I made to opt out of one event in order to attend another. Are you in a place in your life or business where you are having to choose between 2 or 3 things? Are you comparing what you are or ARENT doing to those you follow on social? If you are and if you hang tight through the story-telling; there are some powerful tools that you can utilize to help you tackle the FOMO or the comparison head on. I personally feel FOMO in not being able to attend the PowerHouse Women conference, not being able to attend or even apply to attend Kacia's Peach house retreats, or Kacia's EmpowerHer live for year 2. And then I feel the comparison trap of being behind in the planning of my own in person retreats or events. Women all around me are hosting their first retreats and or in person events and I just can't do that right now, I'm 6 months pregnant. 4 Tips to battle the FOMO or Comparison 1. Be aware of your triggers and avoid those triggers if possible 2. Journal it out - what are you afraid to miss out on, who/ what your comparing yourself to and how that makes you feel 3. Focus on what you DO have, what you CAN do 4. Use the FOMO / Comparison as motivation If you found today's episode insightful or helpful I invite you to share it! Share it your social media stories or send it to a fellow mom friend or business bestie.  Come say hi + connect with me on Instagram I am there almost everyday sharing personal growth content as well as #momlife behind the scenes and advocating for mental health as women and as business owners.
