Do you wonder if you’ll ever feel like yourself again, beyond the pressure of being a “perfect mom”? Are you a high achiever feeling lost and overwhelmed by the daily chaos of motherhood? Do you wish you had more time for your own goals and passions? Welcome to the Achieve Your Ambitious Mom Life podcast!

I’m Anokhi, a PhD researcher, work-from-home business owner, and homeschooling mom of 2 boys. As a new mom with a successful professional career, I thought I could handle juggling my job, family time, and self-care. But instead, I lost sight of who I was, I sacrificed things that were important to me, and I became a workaholic to cope with having to do it all. I found myself busy all the time without a larger vision for a meaningful life. To regain control, I did what was natural to me. I leaned into scientific frameworks to create a roadmap aligning MY purpose, core values, and career path, NOT someone else’s expectations. Now, each transition in motherhood is an opportunity for me to reset my schedule and create more freedom whether it be creative, intellectual, financial, time, or space… As your weekly life coach, I’ll show you how to: 🎯 Overcome identity loss with self-discovery tools 🎯 Create work-life balance and flexibility 🎯 Win back time and energy with consistent habits & routines 🎯 See past endless daily tasks & decisions using simple systems 🎯 Prioritize what brings you joy 🎯 Pivot to a flexible job like remote work, freelancing, part-time, or homeschooling In this journey to create a life that you truly desire, it’s time to rediscover your dreams and Achieve Your Ambitious Mom Life!

    EP 86: Career Change for Moms: Get Unstuck from the Wrong Job [Breakthrough #1]

    You weren't made for feeling stuck in a career that no longer aligns with your values. Yet every day feels like a push-pull—between the career you've built, the family depending on you, the guilt about wanting something different, and the fear of making a change and failing. But what if the reason you're feeling stuck isn't because you're failing or indecisive… but because you're making decisions based on fear instead of your unique values? In today's episode, I'm walking you through a life planning framework to get unstuck from the wrong job so you can finally move toward a career aligned with you and your vision. These are the exact strategies I used in my own life—each one designed to shift you from uncertainty and hesitation to confident action, and bring clarity about whether to stay in your current role or pursue a career change.

    EP 80: Hard to Get Things Done? How Systems Save Moms More Than Just Time [Systems Explained Part 2]

    You can build simple systems that free you from constant decision fatigue. In today's episode, I show you how systems simplify, prioritize, and save time, resources, and mental energy for busy moms. These five key benefits of well-designed systems create predictable success and help you reclaim your time and energy. Every system you build is an opportunity to reduce overwhelm and create more space for what truly matters. Don't waste precious mental bandwidth on tasks that could be systemized and automated. I also share what I call the most important mindset shift for ambitious moms: externalizing memory into systems rather than trying to keep everything in your head. Today, I'm showing you how I transform chaos into clear playbooks (instead of drowning in overwhelm, which I did for years). PLUS a simple prompt that helps you identify exactly where to start building systems. It's a practical starting point every overwhelmed mom needs. In just 20 minutes, you can gain the clarity to start building systems that actually work.
