Reinventing Motherhood Podcast Outlier Mom

The new school year is upon is - and that means the to do list for moms is longer than usual. Kim touches on the "Mental Load" that all mothers carry, especially this time of year. Everything from school supplies, doctor's appointments to last minute summer assignments and adjusting to new schedules - all of these mental "To Do's" can weigh on a mother's mind. Kim asks "why is it that these tasks are relegated to us?" and what we can do about it.

Meet the Outlier Daughter! Kim brings her daughter Kate on for a little Q&A.

Kate then shares her own take on self-care as well as her own routines and shares some important advice with all the moms out there.  Finally, Kate shares some of her personal beliefs instilled in her as an Outlier Daughter.

Today, Kim talks about one of her favorite topics...self-care!  But she's talking a LOT more than just bubble baths and mimosas. She unpacks her six core tenants of REAL self-care (things she figured out all on her own), and explains why they will serve to completely change your life for the better.

A bad habit that Kim has personally struggled with, people pleasing can drain the best of us. Kim shares her own experience with people pleasing; how it affects her at work and home. People pleasing sends a message that your voice, your desire to say no, matters less. Kim teaches us the skills and tips that will kick this nasty habit to the curb.
