The reasons you think you’re unproductive are wrong. There’s something way deeper going on that most moms have never considered.
As a busy mom, you’ve always got more to do than time to do it. And yet it’s incredibly hard to be productive when you’re naturally affected by everyone else’s emotional distress. I give a personal example of how discord at home could have spiraled into an unproductive day but what I did instead to break free of the mind drama and still get lots done.
In this powerful episode, I break down how the problem isn’t that you’re not lazy or incompetent or missing the “right” productivity strategy; it’s that you just don’t yet know how to hold space for big emotions and still get work done—while untethering your self-worth from however things look and feel.
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL DISCOVER:
- Why the reasons society and standard productivity gurus tell you you’re not productive are WRONG
- How emotionally distressing situations take your brain “offline” and thus inhibit your productivity
- Why moms are particularly prone to getting triggered and stressed by OTHERS’ emotions
- Why you’ll never NOT be emotional about something
- The crucial skill you need to develop so you can handle your emotions in a healthy way and STILL be super productive
HOMEWORK:
Write down three personal situations that have stressed you out in the last week. What specific emotions did they make you feel? How did you handle those emotions? Do you feel like you resolved them in a healthy, productive way? If not, how do you want to “hold space” better in the future? DM me on Instagram or book a FREE consult if you want to to talk more about this.
COMING UP NEXT:
Don’t miss next episode where I’m diving into something that always makes moms SUPER emotional so you can brace for it ahead of time and not let it sabotage your productivity or connection with loved ones.
