Hi mama, Get my free guide: ✨ ChatGPT Prompts Made Simple for Moms ✨today! And Happy New Year… welcome to 2026. Before the goals, resolutions, planners, and pressure of a brand-new year take over, this episode is a moment to pause together. If you're ending one year exhausted and quietly hoping the next one will feel different… you're not alone. So many working moms start the year with good intentions, only to find themselves right back in survival mode… reacting instead of choosing, feeling behind instead of grounded, and wondering where the time went. In this short episode, I'm speaking to you not just as a coach… but as another working mom who's been there. Inside this episode, we talk about: ✨ Why motivation fades… and why that's not your fault ✨ Why planning tasks without priorities keeps us stuck ✨ How to stop letting another year just “happen” to you ✨ What it really means to design a year around your life… not the other way around This is not about doing more. It's not about hustle, perfection, or a brand-new you. It's about stepping into 2026 with intention.

In this episode, I'm joined by Courtney Cecil, a high-performing systems engineer turned entrepreneur and the founder of the Working Moms Movement. Courtney and I dive into the real (and often invisible) load working moms carry and why the narrative around "doing it all" needs to be redefined. Thank you to Nourish Move Love for sponsoring this episode! Join Us Here for Athlete 25 on January 5th! We talk about: What corporate burnout looked like in real time and the wake-up moment that changed everything for her Why so many women feel loyal to roles that are draining them How Courtney rebuilt her life around her values and how she's helping others do the same The systems, delegation tools, and support structures that give working moms breathing room What boundaries actually look like when you're leading at work and at home Whether you're a mom in leadership or simply someone tired of feeling stretched thin, this conversation will help you rethink what success and sustainability can look like — without guilt.

In today's episode, we're talking about why working moms don't struggle with knowing what matters—we struggle with protecting it. ✨ This Week's Quote “The key is not to prioritize what's on your schedule, but to schedule your priorities.” — Stephen Covey This quote comes from Covey's classic book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People… a must-read when it comes to time management, values, and intentional living. So much of what we talk about here on the podcast traces right back to the principles he teaches.

Hi mama, Get my free guide: ✨ ChatGPT Prompts Made Simple for Moms ✨today! This episode is the exhale… the moment to pause before rushing into the new year with another long list of goals. As we wrap up the Becoming Her series, this conversation brings everything together. Instead of asking, “What do I want to do next year?” we shift the focus to something much more powerful:

70% of women who took career breaks struggle with decreased confidence when trying to re-enter. Add in ageism, the motherhood penalty, and AI screening resumes? People are hitting their heads against the wall in this brutal job market.But what if you could bypass the nail-biting interviews altogether?Here's job sharing's best-kept secret for career relaunches: Find your partner FIRST. Have them pitch you as a team. Get built-in mentorship as you upskill on the job—like an old-school apprenticeship.Instead of explaining resume gaps and competing against uninterrupted work histories, you're partnering with someone already valued and trusted. You're offering a high-performing team, not asking for a chance.In episode 58:Why relaunches are harder than ever (ageism + AI HR + motherhood penalty)The confidence crisis no one's talking about

Send us a textMolly McCartan, Founder and CEO of The Mom Pact, joins Aggie and Cristy for a direct conversation about why nearly half of working moms are leaving the workforce and why this is not a motivation or confidence issue.This episode looks at leadership, incentives, and systems that were never built to support real life transitions. Maternity leave, flexibility, childcare, career gaps, and return to work are not fringe topics. They are core business and leadership decisions with long term consequences.If companies care about talent, retention, and performance, this conversation makes one thing clear. The problem is not working moms. The problem is how work is designed.In this episode, we unpack:Why high performing women exit the workforce after becoming mothersWhat the 44 percent statistic actually reveals about leadership failureWhy flexibility outperforms salary increases in retentionThe cost of rigid work structures on productivity and trustWhy career gaps should be viewed as capability, not riskWhat most companies misunderstand about maternity leave and reintegrationWhy the system pushes women out instead of pulling them back inHow community and strategy rebuild confidence after time awayWhat leadership looks like when policy has not caught up to realityCore idea:Working moms are not opting out. They are being pushed out by inflexible systems.About the GuestMolly McCartan is the Founder and CEO of The Mom Pact, a career driven network supporting working moms through major professional transitions. With more than a decade of experience in strategy, operations, and business development, Molly brings a business and policy lens to a problem often framed as personal.Connect with MollyWebsite: https://www.themompact.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mollymccartan52/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themompact/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/molly.owens/--- Subscribe and ReviewIf you loved this episode, drop us a review, share it with a badass woman in your life, and subscribe to Badass Women in Business wherever you get your podcasts.

Hi Mamas, Download my free guide: ✨ ChatGPT Prompts Made Simple for Moms ✨ As we close out the final Monday of the year, I wanted to pause with you… before the noise of “new year, new me” takes over… and help you enter this next season with intention, not pressure. Over the past few weeks in our Becoming Her series, we've done some powerful reflection together: The woman you've been this year The mom you want to be moving forward The partner you're becoming And the life you're intentionally designing And today's Monday Mindset is about bringing all of that together. This Week's Quote “You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your habits.” — James Clear This quote is such an important reminder… especially right now… because so many of us head into January focused on what we want to do… instead of who we want to become. Goals can be inspiring… but motivation fades. Life gets loud. Kids get sick. Schedules shift. Habits are what support you when real life shows up. If you want more peace, your habits need to protect peace. If you want more connection, your habits need to create space. If you want more clarity, your habits need to support the woman you're becoming… not the stress you're trying to escape.

Hi mama, Get my free guide: ✨ ChatGPT Prompts Made Simple for Moms ✨today! We're continuing our Becoming Her series, and today we're diving into a big one—the career you want in 2026. As we close out this year and prepare to open a fresh new chapter, this episode is an invitation to pause and reflect before jumping into goal-setting or making big decisions. Because this conversation is for both types of working moms: • The mom who feels unfulfilled and knows she wants something different • The mom who likes her job, values her career, and wants to grow or climb the ladder... without burning herself out If you've ever found yourself busy, productive, and checking all the boxes… yet still feeling disconnected or restless, this episode is for you. In this deeply personal and practical episode, I share my own journey of realizing I had slowly lost pieces of myself in survival mode… and how slowing down, getting clear, and taking intentional steps changed everything. You'll also learn how to identify whether you're being called to stay, stretch, or shift in this next season… and how to move forward without pressure, guilt, or overwhelm.

Hi Mamas, Download my free guide: ✨ ChatGPT Prompts Made Simple for Moms ✨ As we close out this year and prepare to step into a new one, today's Monday Mindset is all about reflection, growth, and permission. We're continuing our Becoming Her series, and this week we're focusing on your career… whether that means growing where you are, stepping into leadership, or beginning to question what's next. Today's quote sets the tone for this powerful in-between season: “What got you here won't get you there.”  - Marshall Goldsmith This quote isn't a judgment of where you are… it's an invitation. An invitation to recognize that the habits, beliefs, and patterns that helped you survive one season may not be the same ones that will help you thrive in the next. In this episode, we talk about: ✨ Why feeling called to grow doesn't mean you're ungrateful ✨ How survival habits can quietly keep you stuck ✨ Why awareness… not action… is the most important first step ✨ How to release guilt around wanting more ✨ What it really means to become the next version of you This is a gentle reminder that you're not behind, broken, or starting over—you're evolving. Monday Mindset Challenge This week, take 10 quiet minutes and reflect on this question: What is one habit, belief, or pattern that got me “here”… but might not take me where I want to go next? Maybe it's: • Overcommitting • Avoiding hard conversations • Saying yes out of guilt instead of alignment • Waiting for permission instead of trusting yourself You don't need to fix it this week. You don't even need to change it yet. Just notice it. Because awareness is always the first step toward alignment.

What happens when two female lawyers from different countries realize they're fighting the same battles? In this powerful conversation, Erin sits down with Odette Ansell—a Canadian litigator and host of the Non-Billable Hours podcast—to talk about the universal struggles female lawyers face: loneliness, identity crisis, the pressure to "have it all," and the desperate need for community. They discuss why it's so hard to separate your identity from your job, what to do when you feel stuck, and why vulnerability might be the bravest thing you do as a lawyer. If you've ever felt like you're the only one crumbling while everyone else looks like they're crushing it—this episode is your reminder that you're not alone.About Odette AnsellOdette Ansell is a Canadian litigator and the host of Non-Billable Hours, a podcast dedicated to honest conversations about life in and beyond the law. With a passion for connecting with lawyers across every practice area, she creates space for candid discussions about the joys, pressures, and personal passions that shape legal professionals. Odette is driven by a desire to spotlight what truly lights lawyers up outside their work—from creative pursuits to family life to unexpected hobbies. Through her thoughtful interviews, she explores the common challenges many lawyers experience but rarely voice. Her work aims to build community, normalize vulnerability, and remind lawyers that their identities extend far beyond their billable targets.Key Topics CoveredWhy Odette became a lawyer (and the personality test that said she'd be terrible at litigation)The universal struggles female lawyers face—regardless of country or practice areaWhy lawyers desperately need people who "get it" without needing contextThe loneliness epidemic in the legal profession (especially for women)How to separate your identity from your job when being a lawyer IS your personalityThe seasons of life and why "having it all" doesn't mean having it all at onceWhy women lawyers feel guilty for wanting something outside the lawThe bad advice that made Odette delete her food blog in law schoolHow to find community when you work from home and feel isolatedThe power of saying your goals out loud (even if you don't know how to achieve them)Why vulnerability is so hard for lawyers (and why we desperately need it)The retreats that made Erin realize: "These women get me at a visceral level"Connect with Odette AnsellPodcast: Non-Billable Hours (YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts)Instagram: @nonbillablehourspodcastWant to connect with Odette about building community, navigating identity outside the law, or just chat about life as a lawyer?

If I were starting my career over today — with everything I now know about ambition, the nervous system, and sustainable success — I would do it very differently.Not because I regret being driven or capable.But because I misunderstood what actually creates long-term performance, clarity, and well-being.In this episode, I'm sharing the five shifts I wish I had made earlier in my career — back when I was running a law practice, raising babies, and equating success with doing more, faster, and better. These aren't productivity tips. They're nervous-system-informed lessons about how high-achieving women can build meaningful careers without sacrificing their health, energy, or peace.What you'll learn in this episode:Why defining success for yourself is the foundation of sustainable ambitionHow saying no more — and saying it faster — protects your nervous system and capacityWhy daily nervous system regulation matters more than discipline or willpowerThe difference between managing your time and managing your energyWhy aligned mentorship changes everything (and why I wish I'd invested sooner)This episode is for working moms who are ambitious, capable, and successful — but quietly exhausted by the way they've been holding it all. If you want to keep your drive while building a career that actually supports your body and your life, this conversation will give you a powerful reframe and a more sustainable way forward.Press play to hear what I'd do differently — and how you can start making these shifts now.Related Episodes:Previous EpisodeThree Keys to Working from Home with KidsFeeling Overwhelmed with Work-Life Balance? 3 Mindset Shifts for Working MomsWorking Mom's Survival Guide: 8 Lessons for Work-Life Balance with Dr. Elizabeth Arleo3 Reasons Your Productivity Hacks Aren't Working (And What to Do Instead)Do You Have These 3 Signs of Mom Burnout?

Hi mama, Get my free guide: ✨ ChatGPT Prompts Made Simple for Moms ✨today! If you and your spouse have spent more time talking about groceries, carpool, or who's unloading the dishwasher than anything else, this episode is for you. In part three of our Becoming Her series, we're diving into the partner you want to be in 2026… and how to reconnect beyond the to-do list. Because let's be honest… marriage can start to feel like a series of task lists and logistics meetings. Between work, kids, and life, it's easy to lose the spark that used to feel effortless. But the truth is—connection doesn't need to be complicated. It just needs to be intentional. In this episode, we'll talk about: ✨ How to shift from logistics to love (and why it's easier than you think) ✨ The underrated “sixth love language”… time management ✨ Simple daily habits that rebuild emotional connection ✨ How to protect your partnership from burnout ✨ And why the best kind of date nights don't require babysitters or fancy restaurants This one's part pep talk, part marriage reset, and part reminder that your relationship deserves to be nurtured… even in busy seasons.

75% of family caregivers are women—and it's daughters carrying the burden. They lose $300,000 on average in lifetime earnings.This one is deeply personal. My mom came into my care with Alzheimer's overnight during the 2021 snowpocalypse. Nearly five years in, and here's what I've learned: Without accessible eldercare support, your day can turn on a moment's notice. And it's a much harder, colder push than even the motherhood penalty.Family caregivers provide 21.9 hours of care per week—a second job on top of your full-time job. Alzheimer's caregivers? We provide 1-4 years MORE care than other illnesses, often 5+ years.There's a Rosalynn Carter quote I think about often: "There are only four kinds of people: those who have been caregivers, those who are currently caregivers, those who will be caregivers, and those who will need caregivers."This will touch all of us.In episode 57:The sobering statistics (I check every box)Why federal support falls dramatically shortWhat employers are doing—and what they're failing at5 strategies sandwich generation caregivers are using to survive

Hi Mamas, Download my free guide: ✨ ChatGPT Prompts Made Simple for Moms ✨ In this Monday Mindset, we're continuing the Becoming Her series by focusing on an often-overlooked part of a working mom's identity… the partner she's becoming. As life gets busier with work, kids, schedules, and mental load, marriage often slips into survival mode. Conversations turn into to-do lists. Connection gets pushed to “someday.” And before you know it, you're managing life together… but not really connecting anymore. In today's episode, Kerri reminds you that this doesn't mean your marriage is broken… it means it's busy. And busy seasons don't require more effort… they require more intention.

What if everything you thought about aging was wrong? In this eye-opening conversation, Erin sits down with her longtime friend Brandi Barnhill to discuss the health revolution that women in their 40s and 50s desperately need to hear about—but aren't. After 22 years in corporate pharmaceutical sales, Brandi discovered peptides during her own health journey and everything changed. Now she's helping women (and men) take back their health, energy, and confidence through longevity and wellness with EllieMD. If you're a woman in your 40s who feels like your body is betraying you, your energy is gone, and no one is talking about what you're experiencing—this episode is for you.About Brandi: Brandi Barnhill is a wife, proud mom of three, and a woman in the middle of her most transformative chapter yet. After spending 22 years in corporate pharmaceutical sales, she felt a deep pull toward something more—something rooted in purpose, freedom, and impact. That calling led her to EllieMD, where she helps women and men take back their health, energy, and confidence through longevity and wellness with peptides. Beyond business, Brandi is passionate about helping others uncover what's possible when they say "yes" to growth and trust their intuition. Her journey is one of reinvention, courage, and faith—proof that it's never too late to start again. Whether she's building her dream life with her husband, cheering on her kids, traveling with friends and family, or helping others rediscover themselves, Brandi is fully embracing the abundance that comes with living life on purpose.Key Topics CoveredWhy women aren't talking about what's really happening to their bodies as they ageWhat peptides are and why they're not "too good to be true"The health journey that changed everything for Brandi and her husbandWhy your primary care physician probably won't recommend peptides (yet)The difference between getting peptides from a vetted source vs. your local med spaHow Brandi went from corporate pharmaceutical sales to building her own wellness businessThe moment she got displaced from her corporate job—and why it was a blessingWhy telehealth and peptides are changing the longevity gameBeing your own patient advocate and doing your own researchThe mindset shift required to reinvent yourself in your 40sWhy your 40s are just the beginning, not the endConnect with Brandi Instagram: @brandyhesterbarnhillWork with Brandi: DM her on Instagram to learn more about peptides, EllieMD, or her journeyConnect with ErinInstagram: @eringernerLinkedIn: Erin GernerWebsite: eringerner.comBook a Call: Powerhouse Connection CallReady to stop waiting and start building the life and career you actually want?

What can working moms learn from pro athletes?

In this episode, I sit down with work-life balance coach Rebecca Olsen to talk about why the holidays feel so overwhelming for so many women - and what to do about it. We unpack the invisible load moms carry this time of year, the outdated expectations we quietly inherit, and the patterns that lead to overcommitting and burning out. Rebecca shares simple, doable mindset shifts and micro-habits that help moms get grounded fast, reclaim their energy, and design a holiday season that actually feels good for their immediate family. If you've ever entered December already exhausted and want to enter the New Year feeling different, this conversation will feel like a permission slip to do things differently this year.

In this episode, I get to chat with the amazing Kerri Patt—a coach, podcast host, and all-around champion for working moms who want to reclaim their calm, set boundaries that actually stick, and find rhythms that nurture both ambition and wellbeing.

You'll also hear about upcoming opportunities for deeper support through biblical counseling, intentional coaching, and the refreshed Faithfully Balanced course created to help you live aligned with your God-given priorities.

Mothers earn 15% less per child under 5. They're 6x less likely to be recommended for hire. And 8.2x less likely to be promoted.This isn't about capability—it's about the "maternal wall" bias that assumes mothers can't possibly be both good mothers and good employees.What if there was a way to bypass this penalty entirely—to keep your demanding career, maintain your promotion trajectory, and still be present for your kids?In this episode, I'm exposing why the motherhood penalty persists despite decades of progress—and sharing my personal story of how job sharing let me avoid it completely.In episode 56:The real cost: $300,000+ in lifetime earnings lostWhy the penalty hits hardest during crucial early career yearsThe "ideal worker" model that was never built for mothers

Hi Mamas, Today we're talking about how to actually be present during the holiday season instead of rushing through it on autopilot. Inside this episode, you'll learn: ✨ How to notice the everyday magic (even in the chaos) ✨ The mindset shift that stops multitasking from stealing your joy ✨ Why protecting white space on your calendar matters ✨ How to use traditions as touchpoints, not tasks ✨ A simple gratitude practice that brings you instantly back to now This one is warm, honest, emotional, and packed with doable shifts you can use right away.

In this week's episode, Katelyn sits down with photographer, mom of two, and natural community-builder Brooke, for a heartfelt conversation about what it really looks like to work, parent, and stay connected through every season of working motherhood.   Brooke shares honestly about navigating a career with fluctuating busy seasons, balancing weekend work with family life, and communicating needs at home—especially during intense work seasons. She talks about how she and her husband have learned to share responsibilities, let go of perfection, and trust each other's way of doing things.   But what really makes this conversation special is Brooke's other superpower: creating community. Whether she's organizing a fall hangout, sending the cutest invite, or simply texting friends to join her for a walk, Brooke shows how building friendships doesn't have to be elaborate (unless you want it to be)—it can be simple, intentional, and doable for even the busiest working mom.   If you're a working mom trying to build a village, wanting fresh ideas for friendship, or simply trying to manage life during your own busy season, this conversation will give you so many ideas, big and small.   ==========================  

Hi Mamas, Today's episode is all about slowing down and truly noticing the moments that matter. Inspired by the beautiful Dr. Seuss quote, “Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory,” this episode will help you reconnect with the everyday magic happening right in front of you… whether you're raising littles, big kids, or teenagers. If life feels fast, busy, or overwhelming, this is your gentle reminder that the small moments you're living now are the ones you'll want back one day. In this episode, we explore how to be more present, how to catch the moments you're missing, and how to create memories that really last… even during the busiest season of the year.

Ever feel like life is just one long loop of chores, errands, work, dinner, repeat?

Hi Mamas, Today we're diving into one of the heaviest things working moms carry… unforgiven hurt. Not the kind that comes after an apology. Nope. We're talking about the kind that sits quietly in your chest, weighs down… especially around the holidays, and follows you into your mornings like an overstuffed emotional diaper bag. This episode walks you through the real work of forgiving people who never said “I'm sorry,” forgiving the friendships that broke your heart, forgiving family who didn't show up, forgiving yourself for what you didn't know then… and even forgiving the pieces of life that didn't go as planned. Together we'll talk about: ✨ How to forgive without closure ✨ Why forgiveness is something you do for you, not them ✨ Releasing resentment you've carried for years ✨ How to forgive someone who has passed away ✨ Healing friendship wounds ✨ Letting go of expectations and disappointments ✨ The hardest one of all—self-forgiveness ✨ A simple but powerful “Bless & Release” ritual to help you feel lighter today If you're ready to walk into the holidays with more peace, more presence, and a lot less emotional heaviness… this episode is your invitation. ✨

Hi Mamas, This week's Monday Mindset episode dives into the real meaning of forgiveness… and why it's something we do for ourselves, not for the other person. Our inspiration comes from Maya Angelou's quote, “Forgiveness is not something we do for others. We do it for ourselves, to get well and move on.”

Working mom guilt? Yep, it's very real. Dr. Sarah Allen joins me to unpack where that guilt comes from, how to navigate it, and ways to feel more confident in whatever choices work best for your family.
