I’ve been there too – feeling overwhelmed and burnt out, with constant low energy, wishing for more hours in the day, and feeling like life was passing me by. Then, I discovered the magic of being intentional with my most important resource: time. By finding balance in all areas of my life, I was able to carve out the time to start and build a thriving side hustle. The weight lifted off my shoulders, and this holistic approach rippled into every area of my life. Every intentional decision as an entrepreneur increased my productivity and propelled me towards my life goals and dreams with an energy and drive like never before.

You set a goal in January. Three months later, you felt like a failure—even though you showed up and did the work. Sound familiar?
Here's the truth: you're not failing. You're just measuring the wrong thing.
Most goals focus on outcomes you can't control—revenue numbers, follower counts, pounds lost. When those don't happen on your timeline, you feel defeated. But what if there's a different way?
In this episode, you'll discover:
Why outcome-based goals set you up for disappointment (even when you're doing everything right)
The simple shift that puts you back in control of your success—focusing on process instead of results
The 15-Minute Method: two quick sessions that turn your North Star feeling into goals you actually control
How to create a "minimum viable action" that keeps you consistent even during your worst weeks
Why consistency beats intensity every time (and how to build it into your real life)
This is Week 2 of the five-episode goal-setting series for mom entrepreneurs. You'll walk away with 1-3 process goals that don't depend on perfect circumstances—just your commitment to show up.

What if you're setting goals without knowing what you actually want?
Most people jump straight into goal-setting—pick a number, make a plan, start working. But they skip the most important question: What am I even working toward? Why do I want this? What feeling am I chasing?
This is Part 1 of our 5-part Goal-Setting Series for 2026. This year, we're doing things differently—simpler, clearer, and designed for your actual life.
IN THIS EPISODE:
Why busy moms stop dreaming (and how to start again)
The 15-Minute Dream Session: Three questions that create clarity
The Three Life Buckets framework (simpler than the Wheel of Life)
Filter questions to test if your dreams are actually yours
How to know which dream to start with
This week's action: Answer three questions: What's working? What's missing? One year from now, what would different feel like?
Then write: "One year from now, I want to feel __________."
That's your north star for 2026.

Episode 56: The 15-Minute Framework
FINAL THOUGHT:
What is your north star? "One year from now, I want to feel __________.".
What if those "useless" 15-minute pockets between school drop-off and pickup could actually transform your entire business and life? Most busy moms dismiss these fragments of time as too short to matter. But here's the truth: 15 minutes a day equals 91 hours per year—enough to write a book, launch a course, or build the business you've been putting off.
What You'll Learn
How to turn 15 daily minutes into 91+ hours annually using simple math that will shift your entire perspective on "wasted" time
Why you quit habits in week two (and the exact psychological phase you need to push through to see real results)
The 5-second countdown technique that overrides your brain's resistance and gets you moving before excuses take over
How small actions create identity shifts that make success automatic instead of requiring constant willpower
What to do when your 15-minute habit gets boring (week 2-4 is when champions are made)
By the end of this episode, you'll have a clear 15-minute habit selected, know exactly when you'll do it, and understand why consistency matters more than motivation.
Featured Framework
A systematic approach to building transformative habits in the time pockets busy moms already have, turning scattered minutes into compounding results.

You're building something real in the middle of a very full life—now go get your day back.
Feeling overwhelmed by the endless to-do list that comes with being a working mom and business owner? You're not alone. In this episode, we're tackling one of the biggest challenges my clients face: knowing where to start when everything feels urgent and nothing feels done.
I'm breaking down why "doing the thing" is so much harder than it should be (spoiler: it's not laziness), and sharing the exact two-system approach that helped me reclaim an hour and a half per week just by removing decision fatigue. Whether you're drowning in home chaos or avoiding that one business task you know you need to tackle, this episode will show you how to create systems that work with your life as a working mom, not against it.
By the end of this episode, you'll understand:
Why decision fatigue is draining your energy before you even open your laptop
The two-fold foundation you need to establish before any productivity system will work
How to create a Business Engine and Home Hub that automate your daily decisions
Why systems actually give you more freedom, not less (even if you love chasing shiny objects like me)

Stop putting your business goals on hold until January. In this episode, we're flipping the script on when you should actually start working toward your 2026 vision.

If you're a working mom building a business in the margins of your life, this conversation is for you. We're talking about why waiting for January is costing you more than you think, and how the next 90 days could completely transform how you show up in the new year.
By the end of this episode, you'll understand:
Why 23% of New Year's resolutions fail within the first week (and why January is actually one of the hardest times to start)
