Episode 60- Tech Distractions: Reclaim Your Time
Hey Busy Moms! Are you feeling like your tech is more of a distraction than a tool? I'm diving deep into how our digital devices might be swiping valuable time from our lives.
In this episode, "Tech Distractions: Reclaim Your Time", I shared my comedic tech troubles last time with recording the episode (Hint: it’s a must-hear story!) This is an eye-opening discussions on just how our devices may be keeping us from being our most productive selves.
**Actionable Highlights:**
- A "time audit" might just be your new best friend. Do you know where your time really goes?
- Simple but effective tricks to manage intrusive tech habits.
- Steps to leverage technology wisely so it boosts, not hinders, your productivity.
I shared my current reads "Busy" and "Master Your Time, Master Your Life." Interested in a book club discussion on these? Let me know!
Remember, you are worth the effort it takes to carve out peace amidst the chaos. This episode is more than just advice—it's a lifeline to thriving in a buzzing world. Listen today, and transform your 'busy' into 'productive'!

Episode 59- It's Still Ok To Be A Scaredy Cat!
Y'all do it scared! I was nervous to start this podcast but honestly, once I hit record, once I hit publish, I wanted to do it again. I'm excited to share what I am passionate about and I want you to get excited too through messy actions. And it's in those habits and consistency, regardless of perfection that is going to help you succeed.
Why are we scared? The reality is we don't want to fail and we are also afraid of success! But I am here today to encourage you to not get stuck in analysis paralysis which is actually procrastination. Do. It. Messy. Whatever "it" is! Because if you don't just do the thing, you may not do it at all, ever.

Episode 57- Lead or Digital: The Great Debate
Welcome y'all to the great debate! Lead is better because you don't have to look at a screen! Digital is better because you can sync multiple calendars...even have events added when you buy your tickets because of "add to your calendar" options. But what if I told you you could do both?
I went to bat for team paper and I went to bat for team digital. Depending on your life and level of responsible-ness one may work better for you than the other. I could not keep my darn iPad charged, ok? LOL But at the end of this episode, I offered a hybrid solution. See what you think!

Episode 56- Stop D.I.M.'ing Your Productivity
Please know, that when I tell you that all the things you are busy with is really just you procrastinating, don't pass by this episode because I am including myself in that activity.
I've been reading "Busy, How To Thrive In a World of Too Much". What we don't realize, is all the things that have us runnin' pillar to post, could be getting in the way of us focusing on moving our lives or businesses forward. When we reduce these smaller tasks we make room for more A Tasks. Are you too unintentionally D.I.M.'ing your priorities? Hopefully, this episode helps!
D. Dependence-Let's be the thermostat not the thermometer
I. Inertia - It can be difficult to just start. May I introduce you to the Progress Principal?

Episode 55- Juggling Hustle, Heart, and Honoring Downtime
There is a lot of hustle to juggle y'all!
I'm here to tell y'all that you can have a lot of heart in these seasons of being a mama, but you can't do it all at the same time and with the same intensity.
So what do you do when you wanna do it all and how? I keep it pretty real, so I shared some of my real life and current events that made me think of this episode. I break down how to choose where to focus your energy, how to be a part of all the things within your bandwidth, and how to just be ready to rest sometimes.

- Try to figure out what this event is trying to teach you. What do you think you are supposed to learn from this dip in life?
- Gotta laugh about it. Surely there is some portion of what is going on that you can laugh at. What you should have done. What you didn't do. How you reacted.

Episode 48- Repetition is Boring But You’re Worth It!
Be boring! Repetition is boring but you are worth it. When you continue to do the same thing it's like you are paving a road in your brain, so that pretty soon you are just on autopilot.
I was recently asked by my boss for feedback and I got to thinking about my best way of learning which is repetition. I work with a lot of people who are wanting change. How do you make change happen? Repetitive baby steps working towards a clear and specific goal.
I wanted to share with you how I create habit mastery. See if you can benefit from the steps I shared. You may get kick back from your brain and you just tell it to be quiet! You will be shocked when you look back and see how far you have come on mastering your habits.
- Identify a clear goal and how it will feel to not accomplish that goal
- Start small
- Reward yourself

Episode 47- Spurs and Surprises: When the Resort Goes Rodeo
What could go wrong when you drive across state in an electric car? Lots, but this time, nothing. I decided to attend a convention for parents of multiples. I have the good guys (currently 8-year-old boy twins.) And I have finally warmed up to being in large groups of people which equates to chaos to me. So, I convinced my friend who also has twins to join me! We drove my electric car and I shared some tips I used when traveling a long distance in an electric car.
You gotta listen to our first impressions and why we googled the official definition of resort...turns out you just need amenities. They had amenities just not the spa type we had expected. The staff was amazing and even had fried deviled eggs. We knew something was missing the we identified the relish was missing. Y'all put relish in your deviled eggs?
Saturday ended up with a rodeo, my first and last. And a street party I did not attend because of an early morning meeting. When you are re-elected to be on the bored you get to attend those early morning meetings LOL

Episode 46- Prepare The Others - The Unease of Time Off
PTO...prepare the others, LOL. When you take your PTO (paid time off) you usually prepare your co-workers for your absence.
Ok, so now you are home...now what? It's so weird, right? That time to yourself to do whatever you want or need to do. Do you feel guilty? I know I normally do! Well in this episode I tell you all the other things you can be doing with your time, other than feeling guilty and wondering if your work is going under in your absence!

Episode 44- Redefining Your Reading Habits: The Pleasure Reading Challenge
I'm looking forward to reading the new murder mystery book I picked up. When was the last time you selected a book to read, a book you planned to read for fun? I'm challenging myself to read more for pleasure because I want to and because I want to be an example to The Good Guys, my twin boys. I want them to know the relaxing pleasure of reading, not for work, to learn, or for school. There are so many benefits when we read. And it's ok to sit and be still.
Find out about my challenge and I hope you will join me!!

Episode 43- Fit Mama Bear: Juggling Parenthood and Prioritizing Fitness
"My healthy swap was yogurt with, you know, 56g of sugar!" LOL Shelby, a Certified Strength Coach (CSCS) and nutrition coach (PN), joked this with me as she shared how she went from working in a restaurant, being a heavy drinker and smoker to a popular blogger talking all things health. There was no specific pivotal moment she simply wanted to be healthier. Whatever that meant, just healthier. She knew the restaurant environment was not serving her and she wanted to change. So she wrote a gym owner asking if he would hire her and change her life. And he did! As she noticed small shifts like in her energy it encouraged her to keep doing a little more.
Now Shelby has the Fit As A Mama Bear Blog and has shifted back to focus on fitness and the gym but there are a lot of good entries about healthy easy food. Shelby has three kids (7, 5, & 2) and shared how her priorities have created the structure for her days. She fills up her cup by enjoying her coffee in peace even though her kiddos are up around 5:10 a.m. each day. Then they migrate down to work out. The kids know that she's not leaving the house till the workout has been completed. She's setting an example and the kids understand fitness is fun not a chore.
She put the importance on showing up. That's how she helps her followers. Shelby knows life with kids, work, and an unhealthy lifestyle. Start by showing up even if it's just two 5 min workouts. Scale back your mind to know it does not have to be a certain length of time or a certain structure. You have to start somewhere! Focus on one thing you can do to show up.

Episode 42- Restart Your Mojo
Mama's now is your time! I want you to think about what you said, over the summer, that you wanted to do once the kids were back in school. Hopefully, you have established or practiced what the school day morning will look like now that some schools are and some are getting ready to be back in session. I shared how we did it and maybe it can help you.
But I also pointed out that when you have a routine and the kids see you, the cup runneth over into their actions and what they think the expectations are. It's time to Restart Your Mojo! Establish your morning routine and continue to build that momentum.

Episode 41- The Art of Chilling Out For Women Part 2
Think about this...You have to know you are worthy of love before you can begin to give yourself love. You won't prioritize most of these chilling out tactics when you don't think you are worthy of a break, a self-care day, a new plant, or whatever self-love and care look like to you. Angela D Coleman shared lots of ways to chill out including her favorite - a scheduled break. She loves to be productive and it shows in her life but she is intentional to stop and smell the roses.
I mean I got some plants, Zoom Plant and Karate Rocket, as the good guys so lovingly named them but they don't foot the bill for me. You know I'm all about that action. Fitness and eating right are self care to me. But when life isn't showing those rainbows and sunshine, even here in Florida, I know I am in charge of my happiness. So what can I do about it all? You can turn to any part of her book and grab a quick way to boost your mood and chill out.
Let your aura be a Love Beacon. I read an excerpt from this book so I hope you'll listen to the end. How can you chill out and take care of you to make sure you got enough in the tank to give to others who have come to expect it from you? Who need it from you?
And I want to leave everyone with this...

Episode 40- The Art of Chilling Out For Women Part 1
It probably comes as no surprise that the book “The Art of Chilling Out” was born, not conceived, but born during Covid. Like many others, Angela D. Coleman was using chilling out techniques to de-stress. And wouldn’t you know it, she finally had time to get pen to paper. There are 100+ ways to chill out in this book. You don't want to miss Angela sharing how to incorporate multiple practices at once as well as the benefits of each.
Angela is well accomplished from earning many academic certificates to starting a non-profit and a brand off that organization, for profit. Angela started her non-profit, Sisterhood Agenda, to surround women feeling alone. It’s not fun to be an outcast or feel like you don’t belong. She reminds women to put sisterhood on your agenda!

Episode 39- Intentional Parenting - The Power of One-On-One Time
"Mommy you should talk about spending time with us because you are always in our room," said one of my sons. But the more I thought about it, he was right! I try to be intentional and spend time with my sons. I have tried my best to create a safe space where they can talk to me and I can get to know them better. I want you to create these special pockets of time where you too can intentionally have TIME with your kiddos to get to know them and talk about their interests or what troubles them. As a twin, I don't think they want to do everything together, neither do your children collectively. After all, they are two separate people! Your daughter may not want to share thoughts around her brother. Nor does an older sibling want to dive into a topic with their 6-year-old sibling chiming in. When you have one on one time with them you can talk about THEM, as an individual. Listen to learn why and how you too can...

Y'all in the thick of tournament season? Or do you know what I am referring to in the sport your kids participate? I'm thankful for this last tournament but I am ready to be done too! I love the benefits the good guys glean from being a part of sports but mama needs a break, LOL.
It's so important, as we show up to the hotels and/fields, to remember to extend ourselves grace. I wanted to share three important lessons I have learned and hope to prevent you from making the same mistakes and allow you to give yourself grace.

- Where Your Squad At
- RELAX

Episode 37- “If She Cuts Pears, She’s A Keeper” Friendship and Fashion with Amber Riley Part 2
We continued our conversation about finding yourself again in your wardrobe, in your style. Amber is a styling specialist and appreciates how as mamas we just throw on a t-shirt and go on with our days because to some extent we start to feel invisible. Like, what does it matter what I wear? But as mamas, we have to remember we are people too, that had an identity before becoming mamas. Rediscover your style for the body shape you have now. Refill your cup with the things that make you happy now which can include a wardrobe that makes you feel good about you! Amber shares all kinds of motivation and loves affirming her clients.

Episode 33 - Get Up and Show Up
My good friend Toi stopped by to talk about divorce and the importance of taking care of yourself as a mom. At first, she was sprinkling it into the conversation that she was having a life change. But soon the cat was outta the bag and she was navigating divorce. How did she not get lost in the chaos of motherhood? She shared how she had to find herself again and what her relationship looked like with her ex.
People thought Toi should write a book but she thought it may be more doable to provide consistent podcast episodes. She shares her experiences, lessons she learned, and navigating today. She is providing her podcast for the love of herself, love of her children, and love of others in the trenches.
