Working Mom Moments | Work Life Balance, Energy, Stress, Career, Time Management, Mom Guilt

Are you questioning your decision to be a working mom? Have you wrestled with working mom guilt or trying to keep up with it all? Do you struggle to find work-life balance? Does the mental load of juggling motherhood and career exhaust you? Are you finally ready to thrive at home and at work? In this podcast you’ll find real talk and honest conversation around the struggles and beauty of being a working mom. There are so many moments that come to mind when blending motherhood and career. Some moments are beautiful while others are painful. Moments where you feel like you have it all together, and those times when you feel overwhelmed. Moments are what make us who we are. Through focusing on identity work, gaining clarity on what you want and exploration of new approaches, listeners will have a fresh and insightful take on the journey of working motherhood. If you’re ready to remove working-mom guilt (or at least drop it down a notch!) and thrive both at home and your career, you’re in the right place! Hey there, I’m Lacy. As a working mom of four boys, I know what it’s like to pursue a career in tandem with motherhood. While raising our crew alongside my husband, I held a variety of individual contributor and executive roles in both startup and corporate environments. Being a working mom is hard. At times I felt like I had it all together and other times, I felt like I was letting everyone down. I found myself chasing perfection and the elusive work/life balance we’ve been conditioned to pursue. I was treading water and felt like I was letting everyone down. I finally realized I needed to shift my mindset and the lens with which I viewed my relationship with work and motherhood. To do this, I had to get clarity on several aspects of life and surround myself with people that supported me. I needed to recognize the moments - both good and frustrating - that made me who I am. I’m honored to share many of these reflection points and introduce you to some amazing working moms who will impart their perspectives, all while having some fun along the way!

    50. Living Your Dreams and Focusing on Your Priorities. Recognizing When to Pause and When to Pivot

    As a working mom, it’s easy to get caught up in a whirlwind of commitments and obligations. From professional responsibilities to personal goals, we often find ourselves juggling an endless list of tasks. In the midst of the chaos, it’s important to recognize the importance of pausing, reflecting, and reprioritizing. Sometimes in our careers we take a step back, while other times we take a huge leap forward. Similarly, as our children grow, we find ourselves in phases where we can lean into our career because of their independence and other times when they simply need more time and energy from us. Through it all, though, remember why you started. What was your dream? The one that gets you energized and out of bed thinking about? Don’t lose sight of your dream...even if you need to hit pause for a moment. I am living proof that pause does not coincide with failure. A pause in life doesn’t have to be goodbye or a pivot, it can simply be a holding place.  Thank you, truly, for letting me be part of your working mom journey this past year. It’s time for me to hit pause on an area of life, to focus on others. You have been the best community and I look forward to coming back on air to connect with you in the future. Don’t Quit Your Daydream.

    49. Why is it so Hard to Ask for Help?

    The Silent Struggle: Why Working Moms Hesitate to Ask for Help In today's fast-paced, achievement-oriented society, working moms face a unique and often overwhelming set of challenges. Juggling careers, households, parenting, and personal ambitions requires an extraordinary level of dedication and resilience. Despite all of the concentrated efforts, many find it difficult to ask for help. This reluctance is often rooted in a complex interplay of societal expectations, internalized beliefs, and practical concerns. The reality of asking for help is often vastly different from our internal fears and assumptions about how others will perceive us. This discrepancy can be understood through a phenomenon known as the "Spotlight Effect" and also relates to concepts like "Impostor Syndrome." Working moms might feel that asking for help will expose them as inadequate or unfit for their roles, even if this is far from the truth. They might believe others will see them as failing to meet their responsibilities, while in reality, others might see them as strong for recognizing and addressing their needs.

    48. When Boundaries Aren't Enough & You Can't Keep Up

    You put boundaries in place to protect your time and priorities...but why does it seem like you're living in hustle culture, treading water and barely keeping up? Weren't those boundaries to keep us from getting to this pace of life in the first place? If you're anything like me, you think you're coming at life from a strategic perspective where you're making decisions that are best for your time and family. But more often than not, we find small pockets of decisions that need to be made that can compromise the well intended parameters. Before we know it, we're living life in a dead-out sprint rather than a sustainable jog.  We're frustrated, overwhelmed and feeling like the busyness is getting the better of us.  If this sounds like you, know that you're in good company. We all start out with great intentions, but somewhere between decision and action...we can easily get diverted. If you're living life in the fast lane even though you've set your boundaries...this episode is for you.
