Debunking the heaviness of purpose with Kate House of The Live By Design Podcast

Does figuring out your purpose as a woman, mom, and business owner feel heavy?


In this podcast interview with the Live By Design Podcast, I’m chatting with Kate about why living in your purpose doesn’t have to be stressful, and what you can do about it!


Here's a sneak peek at our conversation:

·        How can we take the pressure off finding our life purpose, and how do we connect more deeply with our own?

·        What is the difference between self-love and self-care, and how I can start practicing it today to grow my self-confidence muscle?

 

Quote: Everyone should live their life by design, not default. ~Kate House

    Today we’re talking about the secret key you’re missing if you’ve ever failed at decluttering – it’s because you need this AND minimalism! You know the minimalism drill, right? “All you need to do is declutter.” “If you decluttered, then you’d have your life together.” Except by now, you’re getting kind of suspicious of them and wondering if this whole thing was a scam. Today’s topics:·                    Why minimizing won’t automatically fix your mom schedule·                    Why purging your kids’ toys doesn’t equate to getting help around the house·                    Why you DO still need minimalism to get over this mindset This is why you need both – both the decluttering AND the productivity hacks. Because moms don’t just manage the stuff, they manage the kids. And that means productivity efficiency PLUS purging chops are required. You’ve got this!Alyssa Routines for introverted work-at-home moms: https://yourunbusylife.com/ Episode transcript: https://yourunbusylife.com/secret-key-decluttering-purging/And if you need to cut the overwhelm from your work-at-home mom-life - without ignoring the cooking, the cleaning, or the kids - I’ve got just the thing for you!

  • 366. Don’t let distraction steal your dreams! (How to avoid regret as a mom and a business owner)

    04:26
    This is your #momlife transformation time, and today we’re talking about how to avoid regret as a mom and a business owner – aka, don’t let distraction steal your dreams! Because distracting yourself with housework and grading homework and planning the next menu is just a mask for why you’re not reaching for your own dreams. You – yes, you – have something (in addition to mothering) that you’re supposed to be doing with your life. Something that all your talents, gifts, and abilities have been given to you for. Stef Gass says, “A distracted life is death to your dreams.” And you know what? She’s right. Are you running a work-from-home business - but you’ve still got homeschooling or toddlers to take care of? Let me de-stress your workday for you and show you exactly where to create consistent work hours that still let you show up as mom - each day, every day. If this is you, I want you to reserve your very own Get Stuff Done in Your Business with Kids Around session - ‘cause you can absolutely do both without losing your mind.
