There's a fear many moms in business live with, and if we're honest, it looks like this: my life is slipping away. It's terrifying to think that you're missing out on the life happening right in front of you. The stress, overwhelm and guilt, and just trying to make it through the day isn't the life you envisioned. But here you are. When we're aware of this disconnect – the difference between our reality and the kind of life we really want to be living? We tend to try to change our circumstances. It's our natural response to try to gain some control over a life that feels out of our control. Sometimes it's effective; often, isn't. There is a simpler, easier way to change your life, and it starts with giving yourself permission. Permission to enjoy your life more. Letting go of the expectation that everything has to be a constant battle - that it all has to be hard: motherhood, marriage, business, relationships... life. The truth is, without realizing it, we're all making it so much harder than it has to be. Giving yourself permission to enjoy life more may seem too simple, or too good to be true, but here's why it works. When you give yourself this permission, you're acknowledging that this is an option, and it's an option that's available to you. This allows you to think differently, to feel differently, to begin to make different decisions and show up differently. It changes your life – for good. On this episode, you'll learn: • Why we expect difficulty • Why overcomplicating feels easy • How we "get in our own way" without intending to • Why giving yourself this permission invites true freedom • Questions you can ask yourself in order to let go and move forward Have questions about this episode, or other questions about business, mindset, motherhood, productivity and time?
