You're a great mom and you have big ideas. You don't have to choose between your family and your dreams. The Creative Ambitious Moms Podcast is where we protect your creative momentum, even in the margins. I'm Patricia Cosulich-Smith, life coach and fellow mom, and we're redesigning what motherhood gets to look like for women who refuse to lose themselves in it.

    S2 | Ep 101: The End of an Era + A New Beginning

    I'm officially pivoting the podcast to focus on motherhood, creativity, identity, ambition, and life design while raising tiny humans. In this episode, I reflect on how the show and my life have changed since it began, how it was always designed to grow through different seasons, and why motherhood has become the most aligned direction going forward. I'm also taking a short break from publishing new episodes to recalibrate behind the scenes, with the podcast relaunching on April 11.   ****   Click here to join "Mommy Mastermind," my free Skool community.  Share this episode and tag us on social media! @patricia.cosulich & @the_transitions_podcast Patricia's 1:1 and group coaching programs are about becoming the active designer of your life through any transitional phase.

    S2 | Ep 100: Hobbies for Moms: Joy in the Micro Moments

    This episode looks at the small joys we reclaim through hobbies while parenting tiny humans—right in the middle of busy days, shifting seasons, and unpredictable nap schedules. We talk about the different ways moms weave creativity into real life, from nap-time solo hobbies to shared "plus-one" activities with little ones, with examples that work across a range of support systems and capacities. It's a warm, grounded reminder that what lights you up still matters, and an invitation to find micro-moments of joy without guilt, comparison, pressure, or perfection.   ****   Ready to make a change? Book Your Next Chapter Call w/ Patricia.

    S2 | Ep 99: Main Character Energy for Moms

    This episode explores what it means to feel seen again in motherhood—and how to witness yourself when no one else does. Using the story of a missed milestone birthday turned pumpkin-patch celebration, it looks at how longing for recognition isn't selfish but deeply human. You'll hear reflections on self-love, creative agency, and practical ways to reclaim your sparkle, even in the busiest seasons of mom life. Whether you're craving creative spark, deeper connection, or simply a reminder that your story still matters, this episode invites you to take up space in your own life and lead yourself with intention.   ****   Ready to make a change? Book Your Next Chapter Call w/ Patricia.

    S2 | Ep 98: When The Soil Isn't Right

    This is a follow-up to Episode 97 on blooming where you're planted — but this time, we're asking: What if the soil isn't right? This one's for anyone sitting in the middle space — between blooming and uprooting, between "I can make this work" and "I think I need to go." If you've ever wrestled with your environment — whether it's a job, a place, or a relationship — this episode offers reflection, stories, and gentle coaching to help you discern your next step. 💧 For the person crying in their car. 🌆 For the new mom Googling "am I allowed to leave this city?" 🎨 For the creative quietly suffocating in a place they've outgrown. In this episode: How to know if your environment is nourishing or draining you Why blooming takes more than mindset — it takes space, safety, and support Three paths: Stay and adapt, co-create change, or lovingly let go Personal stories of choosing to leave, to shift, and to stay with boundaries Gentle prompts and somatic cues to guide your own next steps 📍 Listen to Episode 97 first if you haven't already — and then come back here when you're ready to go deeper. 🌱 Because sometimes, the most self-loving thing you can do… is repot yourself.   ****   Ready to make a change? Book Your Next Chapter Call w/ Patricia.

    S2 | Ep 97: Bloom Where You're Planted (But Also Bring a Shovel)

    Content Disclaimer: This episode mentions suicide and suicidal ideation, which may be distressing for some listeners. Please take care while listening. If you are in crisis or need support, we encourage you to reach out to a mental health professional or call a local crisis line.   Are you co-creating your environment—or just consuming it? In this episode, we explore what it means to stop waiting for life to feel better—and start showing up as a quiet yet powerful designer of your own ecosystem. What does it really mean to co-create your life… especially when you weren't handed the map, the money, or the magic wand? I share how I've built belonging in unfamiliar places (including a raw story from my time living in Japan), what it's taken to cultivate community from scratch, and why your calendar might be your most overlooked creative tool. We talk seeds, slow growth, social capital, and the kind of life design that doesn't rely on perfect conditions. This one's honest, down-to-earth, and ready to meet you right where you are.   ****   Ready to make a change? Book Your Next Chapter Call w/ Patricia.
