Description

Hi Mamas,


This week’s Monday Mindset Reset is inspired by a whirlwind of a week… but in the best way. I was asked to be a virtual guest speaker at the CEO Mom Breakthrough Summit… a space for moms who are chasing their dreams, building businesses, and still choosing to be present, intentional mamas. What an honor to be included!


My contribution to the summit was a 30-minute workshop where I teach my Meal Planning Made Simple method. Which sounds simple… but behind the scenes it meant creating a workshop from scratch, building the presentation, recording, teaching myself to edit video for the first time, and submitting it on deadline… all while still working my corporate job, managing kids’ activities, fitting in a date night with Russ, and keeping up with life.


But this week wasn’t just about cranking out a workshop… it was about navigating it all without losing my mind. Which brings me to today’s quote from Jana Kingsford:


💭 “Balance is not something you find, it’s something you create.”


Inside This Episode, We’ll Talk About:


✔️ Why balance doesn’t just “show up” once life calms down

✔️ The truth about creating balance in the middle of chaos

✔️ Real-life examples of what balance looks like for moms in different seasons

✔️ How to let go of perfection and embrace intention


This Week’s Mindset Challenge


Grab a notebook… or even just your Notes app… and write down one small action each day this week that helps you create balance.

Examples:

✅ Lay out tomorrow’s clothes tonight

✅ Say no to an extra work meeting

✅ Take 10 quiet minutes with your coffee instead of scrolling


By the end of the week, you’ll have 7 intentional steps toward balance… and mama, you’ll feel the difference.


📣 I’d love to hear from you! What’s one small action you are going to take this week? Share it inside our free Facebook community Work-Life Balance For Working Moms… because your idea just might inspire another mama to set down her own heavy load.
