MOMmentum

Welcome to the highly anticipated part two of our decluttering series on the MOMmentum podcast! In this transformative episode, we continue our journey of unburdening, unwinding, and unleashing the power of decluttering alongside the incredible Corinne Morahan. Together, we'll explore the profound connection between letting go, fear, and the path to a beautiful life of freedom. In this episode, we delve into the depths of fear and its role in our decluttering journey. Corinne and I discuss how fear often holds us back from releasing the items that no longer serve us, and we reveal strategies to overcome these fears and embrace the freedom that comes with letting go.

Join us as we uncover the profound truth that we can't fully experience the next level of who we are until we let go of the previous version that keeps us stuck.

This MOMmentum podcast episode is titled "Mother's Day: When Enough Really Is Enough (and That's More Than Enough!)" In this episode, we will talk about the pressure that mothers often face to be perfect and the feelings of inadequacy that come with it. It's time to place the emphasis on mothers are already enough and that they do not need a fancy brunch or an expensive gift to prove their worth as a mom. Kristi shares insight on lessons learned over the years that was key to a more joyful mother's day for both mother and the rest of the family . Plus, you'll hear a portion from chapter 2 of Kristi's book, "Empty Besting," which delves into the concept of enoughness and how special occasions like Mother's Day can bring up feelings of not doing enough as a mom.  When those feelings arise, this episode has three ways to celebrate enoughness on Mother's Day:  IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:  Enough -Embrace the Imperfect: Instead of striving for perfection, embrace the imperfections that make you who you are. Remember that you don't have to have it all together all the time to be an amazing mom. Really Enough -Celebrate Your Accomplishments as a Mom: Take time to reflect on your accomplishments, big and small, this Mother's Day. More Than Enough -Recognize Your Unique Qualities: Every mother is unique, and recognizing your own unique qualities can help you feel more confident in your abilities as a mom. Instead of comparing yourself to other moms, embrace your strengths and the things that make you a great mom. Mantras in this episode For Moms: Enough: "I am enough, just as I am, imperfections and all." Really Enough: " I am enough, and I trust that I have done my best and give myself credit for all that I've done.” More than Enough: "I recognize and celebrate the unique qualities that make me an amazing mom."  For Kids: Enough: "I am enough, just as I am, and I don't need to compare myself to anyone else." Really Enough: "" I am enough, and I trust that I have done my best and give myself credit for all that I've done.” More than Enough: "I recognize and celebrate the unique qualities that make me who I am, and I am proud to be me."

In today's MOMmentum mini episode we are going to take time to rediscover who you are outside of motherhood. Our daily lives can feel like a revolving door of food prepping, to-do lists, work, running errands and bouncing from one school activity to the next. It's no wonder that as our daily routines revolve around our children that our sense of self gets lost. As this goes on, days turn into weeks that turn into years until you don't remember what you want or like anymore. What happens when we let our role as a mom serve as our identity? In today's episode I break it down why having a clear sense of who we are not only benefits you, but everyone around you. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: How to respond to the question, “do you know who you are?” Helpful tools to gain some quick insight to what makes you uniquely you What to do when people try to decide who you are for you If you have enjoyed this episode of the podcast, please take a screenshot and share it on Instagram and tag @kristihuss Make sure to hit the “subscribe” button so you don't miss an episode!

Have you ever felt that you lost who you are when you became a mom? That's why I'm excited to have Debi Huckaby, creator of Red Letters Coaching & Community on the show.

As she uncovered the strengths she had, she decided to help others as an enneagram coach and pursue her master's in professional counseling. In today's conversation we talk about as moms we often try to find our own road back to who we are throughout our motherhood journeys and discuss ways we can get back to finding ourselves again. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: Accepting who you are and how the enneagram can be used as way to identify your strengths Using the enneagram as a communication tool in your family The good and bad of the challenging last few years on our families Normalizing mental health conversations in the family What is it like to go back to school in midlife and change careers If you have enjoyed this episode of the podcast, please take a screenshot and share it on Instagram and tag @kristihuss Make sure to hit the “subscribe” button so you don't miss an episode!

Everyone likes to have things work out according to plan. Except, life doesn't always work out that way. Especially in your motherhood journey – expect the unexpected. There's no greater time to test how you handle things not going according to plan like when you become a mom.  Many of us have preconceived ideas of what life should look like as a mom. While each of our paths and stories can look different, the one thing we probably all share and have in common are moments when we realize things aren't working out the way we wanted or planned and are left asking ourselves “now what?” and must figure out how to navigate a new path. We have a choice if it's going to completely derail us or leave us stuck. In this first MOMmentum mini episode we will discuss ways to work through acceptance of what is and forge a new path while not losing sight of your dreams. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: A mindset shift to try when something doesn't go according to plan How not to throw your dreams out the window when life throws you sideways Using life experiences as an opportunity to learn and grow How to embrace the change as part of the adventure  If you have enjoyed this episode of the podcast, please take a screenshot and share it on Instagram and tag @kristihuss Make sure to hit the “subscribe” button so you don't miss an episode!

What is it like to have peace that you will likely not have children and suddenly find out you are pregnant at 40? Samarah Meil has always been known for being the favorite friend, colleague and aunt and spent most of her life loving on others and their families. Guided by her faith, she had accepted that having children wasn't in the cards for her and her husband, Michael. With this peace she and her husband spent time mentoring others, building her travel business, traveling the world and loving their lives together by being a blessing to others.  We have an incredible conversation around what it is like as someone that plans for others for a living own life gets a major unexpected life change in plans.   IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: What it is like to become a first time mom later in life How to stay grounded when life throws you a curveball Advice and what to say to someone that doesn't have children How to graciously receive from others If you have enjoyed this episode of the podcast, please take a screenshot and share it on Instagram and tag @kristihuss Make sure to hit the “subscribe” button so you don't miss an episode!
