Hi Mamas, I today's episode, we're diving into a powerful (and sometimes uncomfortable) topic that every overwhelmed mom needs in her toolkit… how to say NO with confidence, clarity, and kindness. Because here's the truth: When you say no with confidence, you're really saying YES to what matters most… your peace, your time, your family, and your health.

Emmy-winning ESPN broadcaster Jenn Hildreth and FOX Sports Senior Vice President Talent Relations Aimee Leone, talk about “Tough as a Mother: Women in Sports, Working Moms, and the Shared Traits That Empower Us All”, their anthology offering an intimate look at the lives of iconic women in sports and their journeys of balancing family and career.

Aimee talks about her mom Diane, from whom she learned to always keep evolving, be accepting of others, face her fears, and not to overthink. Aimee and Jenn also talk about what “having it all” means and if it's possible, about moxie, prioritizing, and lifting others.

Hi Mamas, If you've ever found yourself reheating the same cup of coffee for the third time—while RSVP-ing “sure, I'll bake 48 gluten-free, dairy-free, unicorn-shaped cupcakes”… today's episode is for you. We're diving into Paulo Coelho's reminder: “When you say ‘yes' to others, make sure you're not saying ‘no' to yourself.” Because every yes comes with an invoice… paid in sleep, sanity, or that bedtime snuggle you promised your kiddo.

In this pep-talk: ✔️ Why defaulting to yes bankrupts your energy account ✔️ The 3-step Empowered Pause (breathe… scan… ask) that keeps guilt in its lane ✔️ How modeling healthy limits teaches our kids that they don't have to do it all ✔️ Real-life boundary scripts you can swipe (straight from my Boundaries Made Simple freebie) ✔️ The truth about “good moms do everything” … and why that voice needs an exit pass

In this episode I'm sharing 10 simple, practical, and time-friendly ways to nurture your relationship with your kids… even if your calendar feels like it's busting at the seams. This isn't about adding more to your plate. It's about weaving meaningful moments into the chaos you're already managing… through things like: ✔️ Making family time a non-negotiable ✔️ Creating weekly traditions that your kids will remember forever ✔️ Discovering and speaking your child's love language ✔️ Turning ordinary routines into connection rituals ✔️ And modeling self-care, so they learn how to value their own well-being too If you've ever wondered how to feel more connected with your children…. without needing more time or energy than you've got… this is your permission slip and your plan.

In this honest and heartfelt episode, Katelyn Denning opens up about her own journey from being the serious, task-focused mom to becoming someone who laughs, dances, and plays — without sacrificing her career or responsibilities. If you've ever felt like there's no space for fun between meetings, meal prep, and managing your family's schedule, this one's for you.

Hey mama, This week's Monday Mindset is such an important one… especially if you've been feeling like you're doing all the things but still missing real connection with your kids. We're kicking off the week with this quote by Dr. A. Whitham: “Children spell love… T-I-M-E.” In this episode, I'm sharing how small, intentional moments of presence… even just 10 minutes a day… can completely shift your relationship with your child. Because it's not about elaborate plans or carving out hours you don't have. It's about putting your phone down, tuning into the moment, and being truly present…even in the chaos. Here's what I'm talking about: ✔️ Why quality time doesn't have to mean “a lot of time” ✔️ How to create meaningful micro-moments (that fit into your real life) ✔️ My favorite connection rituals… from sock-sorting chats to bedtime “rose and thorn” ✔️ Why your full attention… even for 10 minutes… can fill your child's emotional tank ✔️ A mindset shift that helps you ditch the guilt and show up with intention

What does it take for two busy working moms to conquer one of the fastest-growing fitness challenges in the world? With host coach David Syvertsen @davesy85, Keren McKinney @kerenmckinney and Ashley Syvertsen @ashleyann522 pull back the curtain on their recent High Rocks race experience in New York City, revealing the reality behind the Instagram-worthy finish line photos.The conversation dives deep into what truly matters when preparing for such a physically demanding event. Keren, a former college soccer player and nurse with four children, paired with Ashley, who readily admits "I don't run, I don't like to run" to tackle what they describe as a race that's "90 percent running." Their candid discussion about training strategies uncovers a crucial insight: success came from adding specialized Sunday sessions focused specifically on transitioning between running and workout stations—the exact format they'd face on race day.Most compelling is their approach to teamwork. Rather than simply splitting the work evenly, they strategically played to each other's strengths. "I would come in and do the station and then be able to rest before the run was huge for us," Ashley explains, while Keren acknowledges, "I need to train harder next year because I was so gassed after a couple of the stations, being the one having to run again." This honest assessment of their partnership demonstrates the thoughtful planning required for team success.Beyond physical preparation, they share the logistical challenges rarely discussed—from not knowing their heat time until three days before the race to walking "5,000 steps looking for water" at the venue. Their running splits reveal remarkable consistency throughout the race, maintaining nearly identical lap times from start to finish despite fatigue.The most powerful moment? Crossing the finish line hand-in-hand after pushing each other past their perceived limits. "There were times in the race when I wanted to walk because I was so tired, but I'm not going to walk because Ashley's not going to walk," Keren reflects. They're already planning next year's race, with improved strategies and faster targets.Ready to take on your own fitness challenge?

Support AND/BOTH: Help us offset production costs while we're growingIn today's roundtable episode, Ashley and Erin chat with two women building deeply human solutions for working moms: Kate Tovsen, founder of The Society of Working Moms and Kate Tovsen Media, and Alli Kushner, founder of BeeKyn, a soon-to-launch playdate matching and scheduling platform for modern families.This honest, wide-ranging discussion explores why loneliness is a shared, but rarely talked about part of motherhood, especially for those balancing careers, businesses, and caregiving. Each guest offers a unique lens into how accessible community, supportive tools, and even digital innovation like asynchronous connection or curated online spaces can create more room for joy, help, and human connection in this messy middle of parenting.Whether you're raising toddlers or teens, running a company or running late to pickup, this conversation will help you feel seen, and remind you that building meaningful community is possible, even in a world that feels increasingly noisy and disconnected.What you'll learn:Why 70% of moms report feeling lonely—and what to do about itHow motherhood changes your ability to connect (and what community can look like now)Why the “right” community for you will change over timeThe difference between joining a community and staying in oneHow tech can support, not replace, real-life connectionTips for building your own support network, even in small, siloed waysHow parenting, business, and identity overlap in real-world community-buildingWhy perfection isn't the point—starting messy is often the keyConnect with Erin: Website: https://www.pgishparenting.comInstagram: @pgishparentingPG ish podcastConnect with Kate:katetovsenmedia.comSociety of Working Moms Connect with Alli:allikushner.comBeeKynConnect with Ashley:Website: https://dovetaildesigns.coPodcast website: https://www.andbothpodcast.com/AND/BOTH Community: https://www.andbothpodcast.com/andboth-communityDovetail® App: https://airtable.com/appn6w6IWipJYIuA3/pagZys7UnECzM46iJ/formSocial:Instagram: @dovetailappFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/dovetaildesigns.coLinkedIn:

On today's episode of Become A Calm Mama, I have 2 guests - Angie and Megan - co-founders of Front Row Moms. We're talking about what it means to be a working mom, as well as the benefits and obstacles to being a working parent. You'll Learn:What “having it all” actually meansMindset shifts to relieve mom guilt4 strategies for managing overwhelm as a working momWhy empowerment is better than perfectionWhether you are a working mom out of choice or necessity, I know you'll get some helpful tips and lots of encouragement from our conversation. (And if you're not a working mom, stick around anyway, because there are some great life management and mindset tips in here for you, too.)--------------------------------------------Meet the Front Row MomsAngie Macdougall and Megan Corey are the powerhouse duo behind Front Row Moms, a dynamic community redefining what it means for women to “have it all” — with heart, health, and high impact.Angie, a mom of two teens, ages 16 and 19,, thrives on being active year-round in the beautiful Okanagan Valley, British Columbia. With over 28 years of leadership at Vector Marketing/Cutco Cutlery, she has recruited and trained thousands, becoming the first woman in the company's history to balance an executive role with motherhood. Megan Corey is a mom of two boys, ages 10 and 11, and the CEO of 4CORE. As she moved up the chain and was being groomed for a senior leadership role in her previous job, she realized that it didn't feel right. She didn't want the burnt out, stressed out, work-first-and-forget-about-family kind of life. So she started her own consulting company where she's known for simplifying complexity, fostering strategic alliances, and building impactful communities. Angie shares that her biggest fear used to be that she'd have to quit a job she loved in order to be a mom. At that time, she didn't have an example in her company to look up to. Her journey of navigating career and family inspired her to seek and create a community of women who support one another in embracing life's challenges and opportunities. Together, Megan and Angie created Front Row Moms to be the kind of community they craved — one where women could grow without guilt, connect deeply, and support one another in every season of life. The Myth of Work Life BalanceLots of working moms feel the pressure to “balance it all”. Balance isn't an end point you reach, it's a constant process of shifting priorities and time. Megan says, “We don't have to be doing all the things all the time 100%.” She and Angie are redefining what “having it all” actually looks like. Angie believes that one solution is looking at results over how long it takes to get something done. You may not be able to fit into the traditional 9-5 schedule, but you can still be counted on to complete tasks and projects. Working from home adds in some unique challenges, as well. When Mom is at home but not available, it can be confusing to kids. In this case, setting clear expectations and boundaries ahead of time is so important. And sometimes, going into the office actually allows you to be more present with whatever it is you're focused on at the time. Each woman has to define “balance” for herself. What does “having it all” look like for YOU, in this stage of life? It's not always going to be the same. And it probably won't look like your favorite Instagram feed or your friend's idea of balance. Dealing with Mom GuiltThere can be so much guilt that comes with being a...

When Neha Ruch left her high-powered career to become a stay-at-home mom, she didn't see it as stepping back—she saw it as stepping into something deeper. In this episode, Neha, founder of The Power Pause and author of the book by the same name, shares how embracing a career pause led her to a more grounded, intentional version of ambition. She talks candidly about identity shifts in motherhood, the surprising ways her family has grown from her presence at home, and how we can all challenge hustle culture in favor of something more meaningful. This is a conversation for anyone navigating the messy, beautiful in-between of motherhood and self. As Neha says, "it doesn't have to be an identity crisis, it can be an identity evolution".  5:00 Choosing to leave a career in the height of the girl boss era.  8:07 Look at the vast gray area between full-time working or full-time staying at home.  11:30 What language you can use to convey that you are spending your time with your kids instead of "stay at home mom".  23:30 Goals dignify time. A career pause is not a life pause.  26:45 The importance of personal development while parenting.  29:40 A woman's career is a long game.  33:43 "I resist the culturally induced urge to dream bigger.

Hi Mamas, In this week's episode, I open up about one of the most overlooked but emotionally loaded challenges of working mom life: making new friends as an adult. If you've ever felt like everyone already has their circle... or you've wondered, “How do I even begin to build real friendships at this stage of life?” …you are not alone. From juggling work deadlines, school drop-offs, and never-ending laundry to managing social anxiety and feeling awkward at PTA events, adult friendship often feels like something reserved for another life phase… one we're too busy to revisit. I share.. My personal story of struggling with connection after moving to a new town The invisible walls we build as busy moms (and how to take them down) How friendship ties directly into mental health, work-life balance, and your overall happiness A breakdown of why adult friendship is so difficult… from logistics and vulnerability to unrealistic expectations 10 practical tips to find, build, and nurture meaningful friendships… without needing hours of free time or superhuman energy You'll also learn: How to use Facebook groups and community events to find like-minded moms near you The mindset shift that changes everything when it comes to putting yourself out there Why you don't need a giant friend group—just a few soul-filling connections What it looks like to be brave enough to go first, even when you feel like the outsider Whether you're new in town, starting a new season, or just tired of doing life without your people… this episode is your reminder that you're worthy of deep, life-giving friendships, and that it's not too late to find them. Feeling encouraged by today's episode?

Feeling stretched thin trying to do it all? You're not alone. In this episode, we dive into why asking for help can feel so hard—especially for working moms—and how learning to do it well can change everything. From mindset shifts to practical scripts and real-life examples, you'll walk away with the tools and confidence to ask for (and accept) support from the small everyday things to the season of life where you really can't go it all yourself. If you're tired of carrying the weight alone, this episode is for you.   ==========================  

Hey mama, Today's episode is a little heart-to-heart, inspired by one of you. A listener reached out and saying she's struggling with making friends as a working mom... and it hit me deep. So we're diving all the way in this week! Let's be real…making friends as a grown woman is just plain awkward. It's not like when we were little and you could walk up on the playground and say, “Wanna be friends?” and that was that. Now it takes courage, intentionality, and a whole lot of emotional energy we don't always have left at the end of a long day.  In this episode, I'm sharing a quote that really hit me: 
“Friendships in adulthood don't happen by accident. They happen because someone was brave enough to go first.” — Danielle Bayard Jackson Most of us are walking around hoping someone will reach out, invite us, start the conversation… while we sit quietly convincing ourselves that we'd be bothering someone if we did. But mama…what if you were the one who went first? Here's what you'll hear: • Why friendship feels harder as a working mom • The biggest myths about adult friendships • How I got out of my own way and started connecting with other moms • A mindset shift if you've been feeling too “busy” or “late” to make new friends • A simple challenge to help you build real connection this week

Welcome back y'all. This solo episode of Being Different is going to be about problems AND solutions. I've been thinking about the differences between stay at home moms versus working moms. And I'm going to share my ideas for a new outdoor play program at my son's school.Look, I've been on both sides of the situation. I have worked 60-70 hour weeks, closing high pressure deals and now I'm a stay at home mom with three kids. I don't like that people make that distinction because being a stay at home mom, in my opinion, is every bit as hard as being a working mom. It's just a different kind of hard - but it's relentless and it's never ending, and it's thankless and you're not getting paid.Also, we've got to make some changes in school priorities for our kids. It's so important for children to have free play, risk-taking opportunities, and less helicopter parenting. Tune in to find out how I plan to make it happen...- - - - - - - - - - -Liz Durham Instagram | WebsiteSubscribe Apple Podcast | SpotifyBeing Different with Liz Durham is a Palm Tree Pod Co. production

Hi Mamas, With summer creeping up, it's easy to feel like the season just happens to us. One minute you're dreaming of family picnics and slow mornings… and the next, it's August and you're wondering where all the time went. In this episode I share her heartfelt, practical framework for designing a summer that's aligned with your energy, your season of life, and your family's values. Because you don't need a Pinterest-perfect summer to create real, lasting memories… you just need a plan that works for you.

If you've ever looked at another mom and thought, “How on earth does she work full-time, chase kids, and stay fit?”—this chat is for you. I'm sitting down with my friend Courtney Hendricks, mom of two high-energy boys, 9-to-5 HR professional, and self-proclaimed gym lover who somehow makes space for strength training without letting anything (or anyone) fall through the cracks. Here's what we unpack: Micro-workouts that actually add up Sneaky protein tricks even picky eaters don't notice Why she ditched perfect and started aiming for done—and the mindset shift that freed her from mom-guilt How she flexes her workout split in every season Food tracking: when a quick log helps, and when it's one more plate you don't need to spin The magic of strength training for women   

Hi Mamas, Hey mama, happy Monday! Welcome back to another Monday Mindset episode…. your weekly pep talk to reset, refocus, and breathe deep before the chaos kicks in! Today's mindset shift? A little reminder wrapped in a quote: "The magic of summer isn't in the schedule — it's in the slow, sacred moments." Let that sink in... If you're already feeling the pressure to curate a Pinterest-perfect summer with bucket lists, pool days, and perfectly color-coded calendars…. this one's for you. Because here's the truth: We don't need to do more to create magic. We just need to notice more. In this short and powerful episode, I'm walking you through: The hustle we unknowingly bring into summer Why our kids don't need a “fun mom” — they need a present one What sacred moments really look like (hint: it's not another craft) Your simple mindset challenge for the week that will shift how you feel this summer… not just how it looks Let's ditch the pressure, reclaim the peace, and create a summer that feels good in your bones. ✨ Because you don't have to earn slow. You just have to choose it.
