Hi Mamas,  Have you ever found yourself saying: 

What if the guilt you've been carrying as a working mom isn't proof that you're failing... but a signal that you're unclear on what matters most? In this episode, I challenge the idea that mom guilt is just part of the job description and share why guilt often points to a lack of clarity around priorities, balance, and success. Through real client stories and practical examples, you'll learn how defining what truly matters to you can reduce guilt, increase confidence, and help you feel more in control of your life as a working mom. In this episode, we unpack: Why mom guilt is often a clarity problem, not a parenting problem The hidden connection between guilt and your beliefs about "having it all" How defining your version of balance changes daily decision-making Allison's story of moving from chronic guilt to confidence and calm Practical ways to feel empowered instead of constantly second-guessing yourself Work with me:Ambitious & Balanced: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/ambitiousandbalanced Book a Work-Life Balance Strategy Call: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/ambitiousandbalanced-call Book Your Mental Load Reset Call Here (with free Quiz!): www.ambitiousandbalanced.com/strategy Links and References:Listen to Kelly's story: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/279 Listen to Allison's story:www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/280

Hi Mamas, Do you ever open social media for "just a minute" and somehow end up feeling like you're behind? Behind on motherhood. Behind on your goals. Behind on your housework. Behind on life. You're not alone. Today we're talking about the pressure of social media, the comparison trap so many moms fall into, and the powerful reminder that we are often comparing our real lives to someone else's carefully curated highlight reel. I share my own struggles with social media as both a mom and a coach, why healthy boundaries around technology matter, and how comparison can quietly steal our joy, confidence, and presence without us even realizing it. If you've ever found yourself questioning whether you're doing enough after scrolling social media, this episode is for you. In This Episode We Discuss: Why social media comparison is so common among moms • How comparison quietly steals joy and shifts our focus • The difference between real life and online highlight reels • Why even coaches and business owners struggle with comparison • The importance of creating healthy boundaries with social media • How to protect your peace and stay present in your own life • A simple mindset shift to help you stop feeling like you're falling behind This Week's Quote: "Don't compare your real life to someone else's highlight reel."

Victoria Lai has lived several careers in one lifetime: presidential appointee at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, entrepreneur, and now business advisor and nonprofit COO. But her biggest pivot came when she nurtured her passion for making ice cream on nights and weekends while working a serious government job. In this extra sweet episode, Victoria walks us through how a $25 Craigslist ice cream maker and a promise to herself led to Ice Cream Jubilee, the award-winning DC-area business celebrated by Food & Wine, the Washington Post, and Thrillist, and what it felt like to eventually sell the business she'd spent nearly a decade building. She also opens up about her family's Chinese immigrant history and how it shaped both her flavors and her sense of purpose, and why she considers her latest pivot back to mission-driven work the most fitting chapter yet.

Hi Mamas,  Summer is coming… and if you're a working mom, that can feel like a mix of excitement and “how am I going to manage all of this?”  The kids are home more… routines shift… schedules get unpredictable… and somehow work still expects the same version of you.  If you've ever felt like summer starts with good intentions but quickly turns into chaos… this episode is for you.  In this episode, we're building on the idea of planning an intentional summer… and getting into the real-life side of it: 

Send us Fan MailSummer is supposed to feel like a deep breath, but for a lot of moms it turns into nonstop motion: camps, meals, screens, messy kitchens, and the constant question of how to keep kids happy while you're still working. I'm Camille, and I'm sharing the real-life summer systems I use to create more calm without squeezing the joy out of the season. We talk about why perfection is the quickest path to burnout, and why your kids will remember how they felt far more than how the day looked.You'll hear practical ideas you can tailor to your family, including simple morning checklists, screen time reward systems, and themed days that give everyone something to look forward to. I also explain what I call a “soft routine,” that sweet spot where kids know what to expect but you still have room to be flexible. One of my favorite strategies is a summer bucket list family meeting, then turning those ideas into a visible calendar so your kids feel heard and the fun actually happens.We also get into delegation and lowering the mental load with home “zones,” age-appropriate chores, grocery delivery, and meal planning that includes your kids. If you're drowning in to-dos, I share my free Ultimate Time Audit and Productivity System so you can see where your time is going and what to delegate first.If this helps, subscribe to Call Me CEO, share it with a friend who needs a calmer summer routine, and leave a review so more moms can find these tools.Resources Mentioned:Free summer routine printablesCoaching & Systems Support with CamilleConnect with Camille: Website: CamilleWalker.coInstagram: @camillewalker.coBlog & Printables: MyMommyStyle.com

Have you ever had one of those motherhood moments where you immediately wished you could hit rewind? Maybe you lost your patience. Responded harshly. Snapped after a long day of work, responsibilities, and carrying the mental load of motherhood. If you're a working Christian mom struggling with mom guilt, this episode is for you. In today's encouraging conversation, we're talking about something many moms quietly carry but rarely talk about — what happens when our kids see us fail. Because while none of us want to lose our patience or fall short in motherhood, there's a powerful truth we can hold onto: Your children do not need a perfect mom. They need a mom who knows what to do with her imperfections. In this episode, you'll hear biblical encouragement about: How to handle mom guilt after losing your patience Why your children can learn powerful lessons through your humility and repair The importance of apologizing, modeling repentance, and extending grace in motherhood How God's grace meets us in imperfect parenting moments A reminder that following Jesus isn't about pretending we have it all together If you've been feeling discouraged after a hard parenting moment, overwhelmed by unrealistic expectations, or wondering how to move forward after making mistakes as a mom, this episode will remind you that God's mercy is available here too.

Hi Mamas,  This episode is a special one 

Do you ever feel lonely as a working mom — even when you're constantly surrounded by people? In this episode of Faith Led Working Moms, we're talking about the hidden loneliness so many Christian working moms quietly carry. The kind of loneliness that shows up in busy schedules, surface-level conversations, emotional exhaustion, and feeling disconnected from friendships, marriage, yourself, or even God. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, emotionally unseen, or disconnected in this season of motherhood, work, and faith, this episode will encourage you with biblical truth, practical steps, and a reminder that you were never meant to carry life alone. We'll talk about: Why working moms often feel lonely and disconnected How overwhelm and busyness can quietly isolate us The grief of changing friendships in motherhood What it means to be “performing connection” instead of truly experiencing it Loneliness inside marriage and emotional disconnection Biblical encouragement from Elijah in 1 Kings 19 3 practical, faith-based ways to reconnect with God and others This episode is for the Christian working mom who: feels emotionally exhausted struggles with loneliness feels disconnected from community misses deep friendships feels unseen or overwhelmed wants stronger faith-filled relationships desires peace, connection, and support in this season Scriptures Mentioned: 1 Kings 19 Ecclesiastes 4:9–10 Psalm 62:8 Proverbs 18:24 John 15:12 Friend, your loneliness is not weakness. And it's not proof something is wrong with you. You were created for connection, support, and community — and God sees you fully in this season.   Support Through Faith Led Ministries If you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or like you're trying to carry too much on your own, you don't have to navigate this season alone.

What does it look like to faithfully navigate work, motherhood, and calling—all at the same time?  In this honest and encouraging episode of Raising Godly Girls, co-hosts Melissa Bearden and Natalie Ambrose open the door to a conversation so many moms are living in real time: the journey of being a working mom. Whether you're in the home, in the office, working remotely, or juggling a side hustle, this episode meets you right where you are.  Melissa and Natalie share their own stories—highlighting the ebb and flow of seasons, the factors that shape work decisions, and the reality that for many families today, motherhood and work are deeply intertwined. With over 24 million working mothers in the U.S., this isn't a fringe conversation—it's everyday life for a majority of families.  But instead of debating whether moms should work, this episode focuses on something far more meaningful: how Christian moms can approach work with a Biblical Worldview. That means keeping priorities aligned, avoiding the trap of career as an idol or idleness as an escape, and inviting God into every decision along the way.  In this week's Raising Godly Girls Minute, Patti Garibay speaks to the very real overwhelm modern parents face—and gently redirects hearts back to the Lord. When stress rises and culture offers quick fixes, Scripture reminds us that true peace is found in crying out to God and trusting Him as our steady foundation. And perhaps most importantly—our daughters are watching. They are learning how to respond to pressure, stress, and responsibility by observing us.  You'll also hear practical encouragement for maintaining healthy rhythms as a working mom—from setting boundaries with work, to modeling diligence at home, to embracing Sabbath as a non-negotiable priority. This episode is filled with grace and truth for moms who are striving to honor God in both their calling and their caregiving.  Because at the end of the day, your work matters—but so does the way you live your faith out loud in front of your girl.    Three Things to Remember:  Invite the whole family into the decision of work for mom—it impacts everyone, and shared understanding builds unity.   Keeping Sabbath is a priority—rest is not optional; it's God's design for your well-being.   Be a tour guide for your daughter—help her understand how faith and work intersect in your everyday life.     Scriptures Referenced in This Episode:  Psalm 77   Proverbs 14:1   Exodus 20:8–11   Visit raisinggodlygirls.com for more encouragement and faith-based parenting tools.  Learn how to find or start an American Heritage Girls Troop in your community at americanheritagegirls.org.        

Hi Mamas,  Welcome back to another Monday Mindset—a short, powerful reset to help you start your week with clarity, confidence, and intention.  This week is especially meaningful as we celebrate 3 years of the Mom. Wife. Career. Life. podcast. And in this episode, Kerri shares a vulnerable reflection on where she thought she would be… versus where she is today.  And maybe… where you are too.  If you've ever felt:  Behind in your career   Behind financially   Behind in motherhood   Or like everyone else has it figured out except you   This episode is your reminder that you are 

What happens when the career you worked so hard to build suddenly feels uncertain? In this episode, I'm talking about the fear, overwhelm, and identity spiral so many working moms are experiencing right now as AI rapidly changes industries and job security. But instead of teaching you how to “hold on tighter,” I'm walking you through how to stay grounded, calm, and strategic in the middle of uncertainty. I share my own experience leaving the safety of a paycheck to start my coaching business, the mindset shift that changed everything for me, and the exact three things you actually can control when life feels wildly unpredictable.

I used to think balance meant everything in my life would somehow get equal attention. Career, kids, marriage, health, friendships, ambition, personal goals, all of it perfectly arranged like a very unrealistic calendar invite. The truth is, working mom balance does not work that way. Trying to give everything equal priority is usually how burnout starts. What changed for me was realizing that success requires seasons. Your career can matter deeply without being your number one priority all the time. Your family can matter deeply without requiring you to become a Pinterest mom with endless patience and a homemade snack tray. The real work is choosing your top three priorities, planning around them, and being honest about what support you need to make it actually work. This episode is for the working mom, working parent, or ambitious professional who is tired of feeling like they are failing at everything because they are trying to do all of it at once. We get into why the balance you were promised does not exist, what to do instead, and why building your village is not a luxury — it is the strategy. Inside this episode Why work life balance is not the real goal for working moms How to choose your top three priorities in this season of life Why your career cannot always be your number one focus How planning ahead prevents burnout before it starts Why working parents need systems, outsourcing, and real community Why even the CEO of PepsiCo did not bake her own cookies for the bake sale — and what that means for you Play the Career Game On Your Terms: https://stan.store/thatcareercoach/p/3-months-of-group-coaching

Episode 196: How to Create a Peaceful Home as a Working Mom — Even When Life Feels Chaotic For the mom who loves Jesus and is still figuring out how to hold it all together. Does your home feel more like a relay race than a refuge? You're juggling deadlines, school pickups, dinner, and a to-do list that never ends — and somewhere in the middle of all of it, you're supposed to be the peace-keeper too. Friend, this episode is for you. Today we're talking about what it actually looks like to create a peaceful home atmosphere as a Christian working mom — not by doing more, but by anchoring yourself in faith first. Because here's the truth: peace in your home doesn't start with your circumstances. It starts with you. In this episode we cover: Why a peaceful home has nothing to do with a clean house or a perfect schedule The oxygen mask principle and why anchoring yourself spiritually first changes everything How praying in the small in-between moments of your day keeps you connected to God even on the most chaotic days Three practical faith rhythms that shift your home atmosphere without overhauling your life Grace for the moms in a genuinely hard season who just need permission to breathe Scriptures mentioned: Philippians 4:7 // Proverbs 31:25 Support Through Faith Led Ministries If you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or like you're trying to carry too much on your own, you don't have to navigate this season alone.

What happens when you love your work… but your body is tired, the industry feels broken, and motherhood adds a whole new layer to the equation? In this episode of the Working Moms of San Antonio Podcast, we sit down with Sarah Dieringer, owner of The Canine Co., to talk about what it really looks like to build a small business in San Antonio while raising kids, caring for fur babies, and staying true to your values. Sarah shares her 30-year journey in the pet grooming industry, including why she almost walked away, what pulled her back, and how opening her own dog grooming business became the turning point. This conversation is especially for pet owners, working moms, and women entrepreneurs who want to grow a business without sacrificing their family, their health, or their integrity. We talk about: What every pet owner should know about dog grooming and trusting the right professionals The physical and emotional toll of service-based businesses Why so many moms in business question their careers, even when they're good at them Building a values-driven small business in San Antonio Creating a healthy work environment, setting boundaries, and leading a team as a mom Raising kids inside your business and navigating mom guilt in the process This episode is a reminder that you don't have to start over to evolve. You don't have to choose between being a present mom and a successful business owner. And you're not alone in wondering if there's a better way to do both. If you're a San Antonio mom, a pet parent, or a small business owner feeling burned out, unseen, or stuck in the messy middle, this conversation will feel like a deep exhale. Because real women. Real business. Real connection.

Evidence over the past several decades shows that when women do better, society does better. But are we helping women to be successful... or are we adding more pressure to certain groups of women? This segment, Holly and Greg talk about working moms -- the ones who get up early and take care of the kids, just to go to work and take care of the adult children. Is society actually helping them so they can be most successful? Dr. Susan Madsen, founder and director of the Utah Women & Leadership Project shares her insights.

Ever melted into the couch after a long day, scrolled for thirty minutes, and somehow felt even worse when you got up?It's not that rest isn't working. It's that there are actually seven different types of rest, and most of us are only using one or two. This episode walks through all seven, connects them to your capacity pattern, and gives you one thing to try this week that might actually feel restorative.What You'll LearnThe seven types of rest and how to incorporate them into your daily life Why your Capacity Pattern determines which types of rest you need (and which you might avoid)How to know whether you're actually resting or just checking out--

If you've ever found yourself doing everything at home—managing schedules, picking up the slack, remembering all the little details—and then wondering why you feel so exhausted and resentful… you're not alone. So many working moms carry the emotional load without even realizing it. Not because they want to—but because it feels easier in the moment to just handle it yourself. But over time, all those “small things” add up. In this episode, I'm talking with negotiation expert Attia Qureshi about how the skills we often associate with boardrooms and big deals actually show up in our everyday lives—especially at home. And more importantly, how learning to use those skills can help you move from doing everything yourself… to creating a true partnership. This isn't about becoming more demanding or confrontational. It's about understanding what you need, communicating it clearly, and building a home dynamic that feels supportive—for everyone involved. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why working moms often struggle to ask for help at home—even when they're confident communicators at work How unspoken expectations create resentment (and what to do instead) The difference between being a “giver,” “taker,” and “matcher” in your relationships A simple way to start shifting from doing everything yourself to shared responsibility Why naming your emotions is the first step to better communication boundaries How small moments of negotiation happen every single day—and how to use them to your advantage The key mindset shift that turns conflict into collaboration Why This Matters When you're constantly stepping in and taking care of everything, it might feel like you're helping your family. But what's really happening is that you're setting a pattern—one where you carry the weight, and everyone else assumes you've got it handled. And that's where mom burnout begins. Learning how to communicate your needs, ask for support, and create more balanced dynamics isn't just about getting help. It's about feeling seen, respected, and supported in your own home.

What if work-life balance feels impossible not because of your schedule, but because of what's happening inside your head? In episode 259 of Joy Found Here, international life coach Rebecca Olson unpacks why so many ambitious working moms are stuck — and it starts with asking better questions. From her own motherhood identity crisis to coaching thousands of parents through theirs, she makes the case that balance isn't a dream. It's a skill set.In This Episode, You Will Learn:(04:50) The motherhood identity crisis that made Rebecca a coach (07:46) When ambition and new motherhood feel like an impossible battle (10:36) Why the guiltiest generation is also the most present (13:05) The workplace bias against working moms that won't quit (16:02) The two conversations working moms keep conflating (21:34) The one question Rebecca asks to cut through the noise (25:42) Work-life balance is a feeling state, not a calendar fix (28:03) Clarity, Confidence, and Control — Rebecca's 3 C's unpacked (39:20) Why you never think in fact — and the flashlight vs. floodlight shift (43:44) Retraining your thoughts with Rebecca's Daily KickstartRebecca Olson is a Certified Professional Life Coach, international keynote speaker, and host of the podcast Ambitious and Balanced Working Moms. A member of the International Coaching Federation, she has spent seven years helping career-focused parents stop feeling overwhelmed and "not enough" — so they can be present at home without sacrificing their ambitions. Her passion was ignited by her own motherhood identity crisis, which led her to leave a successful corporate career and go all-in on coaching. Through her signature group program and weekly podcast, she has helped thousands of working parents redefine success on their own terms and build the skillset for real work-life balance.In this episode, Rebecca shares her framework for helping working moms untangle two conversations that constantly get conflated: what do I actually want from my career, and how do I manage the chaos of my current life? She introduces her 3 C's — Clarity, Confidence, and Control — making the case that lasting balance starts from the inside out: get clear on what success means to you, build an internal voice that supports your decisions, then develop the emotional regulation to follow through. She reframes work-life balance not as a calendar problem but as a feeling state driven by thought — illustrated by her flashlight-vs.-floodlight metaphor — and closes by sharing her free Daily Kickstart, a 10-minute daily practice designed to retrain thought patterns and build the mindset muscle working moms actually need.Connect with Rebecca Olson:WebsiteFacebookInstagramLinkedInYouTubePodcast: Ambitious and Balanced Working MomsThe Working Mom's Daily Kickstart: A simple morning practice to stay ahead of stress and overwhelm – so you feel in control of your time, your mindset, and your priorities.Let's Connect:WebsiteInstagram Hosted on Acast.

Hi Mamas,  Paper clutter has a way of piling up fast…  The mail on the counter…  School papers in backpacks…  Receipts, bills, and forms…  That stack you keep meaning to go through…  And before you know it… it starts to feel overwhelming.  In this Monday Mindset episode, we're breaking down this quote by Barabara Hemphill:  "Clutter is nothing more than postponed decisions."    We're shifting how you think about paper clutter and why it creates so much mental load.  Because paper clutter isn't really about paper…  It's about postponed decisions.  Every piece of paper represents something unfinished — something to review, sign, file, or throw away.

You love your job… and feel guilty about it? Let's talk about that. I recorded this episode years ago, but after so many recent conversations with working moms, I realized this truth hasn't changed: sometimes the guilt isn't about leaving your kids…it's about loving your work. In this episode, I unpack why that doesn't make you a bad mom, what's really driving that guilt, and how to start thinking differently so you can actually enjoy both your career and your life at home - without constantly second-guessing yourself. In this episode, we unpack: Why guilt isn't about time—it's about what you believe is “right” or “wrong” The difference between traditional mom guilt and guilt from enjoying your career Why work often feels more rewarding (and why that's completely normal) Four powerful reasons it's okay to love your job—even more than motherhood sometimes Practical mindset shifts and journaling exercises to release guilt for good Work with me: Ambitious & Balanced: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/ambitiousandbalanced Download the Daily Kickstart: www.ambitiousandbalanced.com/daily-kickstart References: Listen to Freedom from mom-guilt in 3 steps: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/16 Study ref: https://www.techtimes.com/articles/64911/20150704/working-moms-now-more-socially-acceptable-says-study.htm
