Podcast Episode 310: 5 Things You Need To Know So You Can Create the Change You Crave with Kathy Sullivan
Pop Quiz Time: Hands up if you feel like you’re doing a pretty good job attending to your family’s needs. Keep them up if you do this… while neglecting your own needs.
Yes? Well, have comfort in knowing that you aren’t alone there. This is a common challenge for so many moms. It’s a story as old as time…moms often feel guilty about taking time for themselves. But we need to start recognizing that self-care isn’t a luxury—it’s a priority!
When we don’t take care of ourselves, we risk burnout and stress, which ultimately affects our families. It’s essential to make time for self-reflection and assess what you truly need to thrive. And we can do this by setting boundaries, allowing you to say “no” to what drains you and “yes” to what fuels you. It’s all about reclaiming your time and focusing on what truly matters.
We’re joined on the podcast today by Kathy Sullivan. Kathy is a Board Certified Coach, Founder and Owner of Talent Principles, and author of the new book, Moms Eat First: 5 Principles to Prioritize Yourself and Create the Change You Crave.
Kathy breaks down the essentials with us, starting with self-reflection. Moms get so wrapped up in taking care of everyone else, we forget to even think about what we need. But figuring out your own priorities is the first step to real change. And let’s talk about boundaries—oh yeah, the “B” word! Saying “no” is tough for moms, but setting limits is a must if we want to protect our self-care.
So, if you’re ready to make a change and rediscover balance in your life, don’t miss this episode! Kathy offers invaluable insights that will inspire you to reclaim your time, energy, and sense of self. Tune in and discover how you can create the change you crave while embracing the support of your community.
