In this week's episode of the podcast I’m giving you a behind-the-scenes look at what actually shifts when working moms say yes to themselves. You’ll hear from Dana and Erika, two incredible women in my current Ambitious and Balanced cohort, who are just seven weeks into the program and already living totally different lives. One’s logging off at 5pm without guilt. The other is reading for joy instead of stress-cleaning. They’re redefining success, setting boundaries, and feeling in control again. This isn’t just inspiring - it’s proof that transformation is possible fast. You’ll want to hear every word.  

Topics in this episode: 

  • What actually changes when working moms stop blaming their circumstances 
  • How one mom went from nightly work sessions to totally logging off 
  • Letting go of perfectionism and finding joy in 10-minute daily practices 
  • Why mindset shifts (not just strategies) are the real game-changer 
  • How investing in yourself creates ripple effects in motherhood, marriage, and work
