Fear of Money | Ep #17
Banishing Mom Burnout
Money is power and until women have equal control and awareness of their money, they are forfeiting power. In this episode, I shine a light on what I have experienced and what I'm seeing regarding women being disengaged with their money and the reasons why. My husband was in charge of all of the "money stuff," it was his "department." I was like an ostrich with my head in the sand when it came to our money matters. And I knew it. I just didn’t have the time, energy or immediate reason to do anything about it. Happily (refer to episode 4) I straightened this out. How? I got up to speed on...

Here's what I know about internalized patriarchy: It's internal, we cause it Men, in general, don't suffer from it.

Therefore, here is a hack ... find a man or person who does not suffer from internalized patriarchy (I have...

Books for Burnout | Ep #14
Banishing Mom Burnout
Step 4 of Banishing Mom Burnout is stop overmomming and use that time and energy to build your life outside of motherhood. One great way to do this is to read. Read... a lot. Reading is a fantastic way to escape/take a break without going anywhere. You can do it while semi-supervising your kids. You can do it while you wait for your kids at activities. Thanks to one of my favorite things, Audible, you can listen to books while mom taxi-ing all over the place. Reading/listening to books is the best! Reading is also one of the best ways to learn new things and continue to grow as a person, which...

Lessons Learned this Summer | Ep #13
Banishing Mom Burnout
This summer wasn't the restful break I thought it would be, but I learned many valuable lessons that I'd like to share. These are lessons that will help you with parenting and mom burnout. I sent my kids away this summer and was looking forward to some quality time-off from "momming." What I experienced was a shift from in-person to long-distance momming, as I dealt with two of my kids struggling while away from home. Coincidentally, I was reading a book called . This book addresses many topics parents need to know about the kids of "Gen Z/I-Gen." I only scratch the surface of the...

Mom Math & Review of the Netflix Show "Old Enough" | Ep #11
Banishing Mom Burnout
As moms, our time and energy is undervalued. We give it away without question. We give our families carte blanche over our schedules, our time, our energy. I know that’s how it was in my house in the past. The kids needed something, they’d ask and I’d drop everything to deliver. Whether they wanted to do an activity, get a ride somewhere, go out to dinner ... they asked and I made it happen. But this approach wasn't sustainable and it led to ... you guessed it ... burnout. I have limited time and energy and if I don't value it then nobody else will. Mom math is a way we can quantify our...

info_outlineMotherhood, in theory, should be wonderful. It’s the most natural thing in the world. Every living thing on this planet has a mother! But if you’re listening to this podcast, you are likely experiencing a special flavor of motherhood, the one I've been in. Let’s call this version “modern motherhood.” This is the motherhood with postpartum depression, sleep training, social media, gluten, ADD, anxiety, food allergies and most recently, Covid. The sparks of many issues are out there. And without the right skills, flames will ignite. If you don’t know how to manage this, motherhood will scald and sear and can burn you alive.
How do you know if you have Mom Burnout?
- You feel like a servant in your own home
- You aren’t taking care of your body
- Your finances are not organized. You don’t have the time or energy to manage them.
- You don’t feel good about your relationships with family
- You engage in overeating, overdrinking, over shopping, or business to cope
- Your life is hyper focused on your role as a caretaker and there is little room for your own needs
- You are having a hard time with work/life balance.
- You feel overwhelmed
- You have a deep scary feeling that you're lost
- Underneath it all you are unhappy more of the time than you want to admit
Well Moms, I’m here to tell you amazing news! There is a way out! I’ve experienced the worst of this. My burnout charred me all the way to clinical depression. I was overweight, overdrinking, and this led to … not the best conditions to care for myself or the other people in my house.
But I found a way to extinguish the burn. I’ve healed relationships, I’ve lost the excess weight and I stopped drinking alcohol. I've also I started a business where I get to live my life’s purpose and passion while making money. In this podcast, I'm going to help you reclaim yourself so that you can get out of volcanic motherhood hell and are able to enjoy motherhood.
This is not your mother’s motherhood ladies; the circumstances have changed. This one can become an inferno. But there IS a way to tame the flames. If you want to find out how, join me here in the Banishing Mom Burnout podcast! I will see you soon!
