How do you navigate the unique experience of parenting in your forties? In this episode of the Unperfected Pod, Brooke shares her journey of navigating her work and parenting commitments over the Memorial Day weekend and summer. She candidly discusses how she is trying to maintain momentum for her professional goals and dreams while squeezing her work week into three days.
Brooke reveals how she was falling into an old, outdated belief that if she cannot work full-time, then she will not be able to move forward in her business or reach her fullest potential. She acknowledges that as a working mom, she struggles to come from a place of privilege and normalizes that it still requires sacrifice.
Tune in to this week’s episode of the Unperfected Pod as Brooke emphasizes the importance of slowing down, taking care of oneself, focusing on what matters, and getting into the flow rather than feeling good all the time or working all the time to achieve a successful life!
