I understand what it’s like to feel overwhelmed with the mental load of being a working mom. I used to think constant exhaustion and stress were just part of the deal.

In this podcast, you will find: *Real-world solutions that actually work *Conversations with women at varying stages of working motherhood *Skills that apply both at home and at work *Time-saving strategies and motivation for the hard days *A roadmap to mindset transformation While raising our boys alongside my husband, I’ve held various individual contributor and executive roles in both startup and corporate environments. I’ve juggled many scenarios you might be facing. Being a working mom is hard. At times I have felt like I had it all together and other times, I felt like I was letting everyone down. I finally realized I needed to shift my mindset and the lens through which I viewed my relationship with work and motherhood. To do this, I had to get clarity on several aspects of life and surround myself with people who supported me. This show will help you do just that!

Ever heard a message so good you wanted to replay it over and over again? Well...that's today's episode!
Even executives who appear to have it all together struggle with the same working mom guilt that many women are conflicted with. In today's episode, we're talking with former Google Global Executive, Erika Gerdes about the hidden layers of working mom guilt.
Among my favorite truth bombs she drops are the following quotes:
"What we are calling mom guilt is not guilt at all. It's shame... Guilt is what allows us to make a slightly different decision. Shame is what keeps us going and never stopping."
"So much of what motivates us is continuing to do more and be more... when we do more, when we become more, then we will be enough."
"We're running away from failure... we're running away from being seen for what we fear we actually are, that we're failures, that we're mediocre, that we're replaceable."
Buckle up - this is going to be a ride to remember. But a necessary journey to walk through in order to gain confidence as working moms.
To connect with Erika, you can find her on LinkedIn or at her website, www.erikagerdes.com.

Summer is in full swing! For kids that means laid back schedules and fun in the sun! But for working moms, oftentimes the summer months provides a whole heck of a lot of stress.
Camps, activities and sport schedules usually don't align with a working parent's schedule, causing you to adjust hours in order to make sure everyone gets where they need to be. This places extra pressure at work and home. For others, they're relying on a friend or babysitter to get people where they need to be while juggling schedules from the office.
Seeing all the posts on social media about fun activities other families are enjoying while you're cranking away at projects at work, can cause a reaction of guilt knowing you want to make the most of your summer with your kids as well.
You're in luck! Today's episode is all about how to make this summer your best yet!
Block off this time on your calendar as a meeting with yourself, pop those earbuds in, and let's dig into this Working Mom Moment together!
