100% Guilt-Free Self-Care
Show notes: This week on the podcast, I am talking all about the insidious nature of being raised a good girl. She’s so polite. She’s so agreeable. She is so likeable. She’s such a team player and so dependable. And we wonder why we are exhausted and resentful we don’t have time for fun, friends or self-care. Meet Sandi Konta. She’s a coach for women who are ready to create a life that reflects their needs, without feeling guilty. We met because we are both Fair Play Facilitators. I love learning about the how and why other facilitators come to the work of rebalancing domestic...

Show notes: Approximately 20,075 days ago I was born. In case you don’t have a calculator handy, that is double nickels AKA FIFTY-FREAKING-FIVE years old. It feels completely bonkers because it doesn’t feel like that much time has gone by. Everyone I have met recently is in the 38-48 year range and that got me thinking about how much my life has changed for the better since my late 30s. At 39 I started blogging. At 40 I started teaching yoga. At 41 I became a mama. At 42 learned about invisible labor, domestic load & inequity in marriage At 43 I resigned...

Show notes: My mom died 10 years ago today. We weren’t close, but she was my biggest cheerleader. The older I get the more I understand who she was and how much of the time in history she was born into really shaped who she got to be. My mom couldn’t wear pants to her segregated school, got married at 20 and had her first child at 21. I came along right before she was 25. She was on the younger side of average at the time, but was relieved to be out of her parent’s house. In the early 1960s women then didn’t have a lot of choices. Options for work were...

Show notes: Are you waiting for someone to choose you? Are you holding back because you think you aren’t ready? Are you waiting until you have enough experience or go back to school? Are you worried you’ll get it wrong? I hear these fears all the time from women. They want to do something that makes a difference in the world and they get stuck because the little voice in their head telling stories about why now isn’t the right time, they aren’t the right person and they stay stuck in the loop of inaction. This week on the podcast I am sharing a very special interview with someone who...

Show notes: If I were in charge of how the world operates, I would definitely sleep as little as possible, stay horizontal in my soft pants, drink caffeine in the AM, and booze it up at night while eating BBQ potato chips and candy corn and feel FANTASTIC! But alas, I am not in charge. Instead we have to subscribe to human biology 101 or feel like a bucket of hot garbage or rusty buckets of bones. Or Boooooth. 😭 I regret to inform you no matter what is happening in the world, we have a lot of control over how we feel inside our bodies and in our lives in this utterly bonkers world. What we...

Show notes: Cops and vampires have permission to enter. Crazy too. Someone recently said that since the plan is to overwhelm and exhaust us into giving up, we need to look at our own behavior in order to survive this administration. The goal is to watch the rollercoaster without getting on the rollercoaster. Watching a rollercoaster feels way different than riding a rollercoaster, doesn’t it? This metaphor helps to capture the concept of equanimity really clearly. Being calm during a crisis is what we practice in the . {Enroll today with code 2025EARLY to save $600. Payment plans are...

In this week’s podcast episode I am sharing my interview with author Lori Sugarman-Li.
Lori believes deeply in the power of families and is a passionate voice in the cultural shift aiming to articulate the value and visibility of unpaid work. Her career as a Communications Strategist, combined with a decade devoted to full-time care of her family, community, and children's charities worldwide, served as the inspirational backdrop for her professional relaunch as a Coach, Speaker, and Author.
Lori is dedicated to fostering meaningful conversations within families, encouraging them to contemplate how they care for one another and their shared space.
Lori, her husband, and two sons are Canadian-born and live steps from Lake Michigan in Chicago.
Please go see the sneak peek of this delightful story.
Our Home is about the power of families, their beautiful but unending work, and the special connection between family members who share a space.
"A tip of the hat to all of the invisible labor that happens […] making little ones aware of what their parents do and reminding parents to watch for those bucket-filling moments of delight with their children." —School Library Journal
I want everyone to give Lori’s book to the families in your life this holiday season.
Please listen to the interview and let me know what you think. You can find all the episodes and show notes at www.tamihackbarth.com/podcast.
