Why did the two moms decide to take over the podcast and share their story?
So this episode's gonna be a little different, and I'm really honestly excited about it. Two women from my ambitious and balanced group coaching program, Sarah and Sarah Ann, they basically came and took over the podcast. They sat down together, turned on the mic, and just talked to each other. No script, no questions from me, nothing. I didn't guide it, I didn't prompt him, I just let them go. And what What came out was one of the most genuine conversations I've ever seen on this show. And I wasn't even in it. They talked about where they were before they joined, what made them finally say yes to the program, and what's actually different in their lives now. And the things that came up: confidence, feeling like their time is actually theirs again, letting go of the guilt, me time.
Those are things that I hear from women in this program over and over again, but hearing them say it to each other unprompted and in their own words, it just hit so differently. I think this one is really gonna stick with you. And before we get into the episode. If you've been on the fence about joining one of the upcoming ambitious and balanced cohorts, Let me suggest you do exactly what Sarah Ann did. Schedule a mental load reset call. This is gonna give you just a taste of what coaching with me would look like one-on-one. We'll be able to talk about your life, your visions, your struggles, and create a specific plan for how to move forward. There's a link in the show notes to book your mental load reset.

All right, hello everyone. There's some new voices here today. We are some of Rebecca's clients taking over the Ambitious and Balanced Working Moms podcast today. So my name is Sarah Schlichter. I am a mom of three based in the Washington, DC area, with a fourth on the way. And I'm so excited to talk to you today. And my co-host is also Sarah, so I'll let her go ahead and introduce herself.
Hi, I'm Sarah Ann and I am a mother of two little boys, five and three. I live in the Cincinnati, Ohio, Northern Kentucky area. And um actually, fun fact, it is my birthday. So um just coming off of birthday season at my house and we finish it off with the best for last as I always say.
Yes, what a special day. Thanks for joining us, Sarah. And tell us a little bit about what you do for work.
Um, I am a relationship manager at key private banks, so essentially I help high net worth families. protect, grow and leave a legacy for their wealth. How about you, Sarah? What do you do?
I am a registered dietitian and I'm not someone who works in a clinical hospital or anything like that. I do see some patients, but I more so do a lot of media and spokesperson work. Food blogging. Um, so I would say my food blog is sort of my main thing, bucket list tummy, where I share family friendly and kid friendly recipes. So I feel like all day, every day I'm either making kids snacks or talking about feeding babies, feeding kids, trying to reduce stress for parents, um, and about to kind of go through it for the fourth time. So
What triggered Sarah Ann to finally say yes to the Ambitious & Balanced program?
That's sort of my jam. Well, congratulations. Thank you. So Sarah, you have so many facets. I mean, I love the arts, the music, and the finance, of course. So Take us back to last year or whenever it was that you really had a breaking point or started feeling overwhelmed, reached out to Rebecca. How did you find Rebecca? And what did that look like with whatever challenges you were facing?
So I I'm not getting paid by T Bank to promote this, but I will say we have an awesome resource in our kind of like employee resource groups.
