We self-sabotage our happiness and success when we take on too much. In this episode, we explore:

• how can we start to reframe the way we think about our day,

• stop the juggle,

• stop the overwhelm, and

• start to build our day in a way that helps let go of #momguilt.

Even if your day still looks a little crazy or a little overwhelming - it’s OK. You shift your mindset in a way that doesn't leave you feeling like you let anybody down. You can still find the fun in those moments and walk away knowing that you are building time in your day to be a better mom and a better version of yourself.

How shifting our mindset & perspective about our tasks and activities can change how we think about those items, how we think about our time, and the benefits that we get from it. Maximizing our most productive times and finding the fun in the everyday!

May is Mental Health Awareness Month (though I kind of think every day is). We need to prioritize and plan for something, not just when we are struggling, but also through our self-care and stress management every day.

The first step is to normalize the conversation. I’ve heard several times this year the phrase “It’s ok to not be ok” and really feel that the more we can embrace this - the less stigma and avoidance of seeking treatment we will see.

Check-in on yourself and others and offer a safe place to be vulnerable and honest.

Kiki, a former educator and busy wife and mom in Alberta, CA decided to launch Smoothies Tank Tops spending years being frustrated with tanks that would constantly ride up, were see-through, and fell apart. As someone who has battled weight issues for over 40 years and who taught junior high for 15 years, she knew in her heart I could make a difference in how girls and women felt about their bodies. I wanted to change how they 'saw' themselves as women. I wanted them to know their worth and to recognize the strength and power their bodies held, regardless of shape or size. There is a huge correlation between confidence and how we perceive the world. Our experiences shape who we are, but what defines us is how we RESPOND to those experiences; it's why siblings from the same family often grow up to be very different people. Smoothies is so much more than just a tank top company; we have created an Empowerment/Mentorship Program for Girls aged 10-14. Her hope is to grow the company through awareness, their Confidence Connection movement, and their products.
