Yesterday was one of those cloud nine kind of days.

I spent the majority of the day in a rare, uninterrupted training session with one of my sales team members. She’s a seasoned pro and incredibly coachable, a powerful combo. She came to the table already knowing what she wanted to improve, and we dug in together.

Watching the lightbulbs go off… that click moment where confidence and clarity meet, that’s why I do what I do.

These are what I call my GET TO moments.

I get to coach.
I get to pour into someone who’s hungry to grow.
I get to use the skills I love most.

And I know you have those moments too, the ones that remind you why you’re in the role you’re in. The spark that hooked you, and the feeling that keeps you coming back.

But let’s be honest, we’ve all got HAVE TOs, too.

For me, it’s:
• Long meetings
• Expense reports, time cards, admin work in general
• Staring at data or maps for hours (hello flashbacks from my land days)

They’re parts of my job that I can do and will do well… but I don’t love them.

And that’s okay. It doesn’t mean I quit. It just means I stay aware.

Here’s my rule for avoiding burnout:
Make sure your week has more GET TOs than HAVE TOs.

And one more pro tip?

👉 Don’t avoid the HAVE TOs, neglecting them is a fast track to losing the privilege of the GET TOs.

Curious,what are your GET TO moments?

Let’s hear them 👇

I had the joy of sitting down with Megan Rauchbach Geyer owner of Southern Magnolia Home Inspections. Megan’s story is a powerful reminder that success doesn’t have to come at the cost of your values, it can (and should) align with them.

In our conversation, we explored:
🔹 How to build a business that supports your life, not the other way around
🔹 The art of knowing when to advocate (and when to accept) for our kids
🔹 The ways we’re preparing our children today for the challenges of tomorrow
🔹 What working motherhood is teaching the next generation about ambition, resilience, and balance

Megan’s wisdom is both practical and inspiring, perfect for anyone navigating work, parenting, or the pursuit of balance in a busy world.

Motherhood doesn’t come with a one-size-fits-all manual — and that’s exactly what we’re diving into in this episode of Rise and Shine.

I’m joined by Abbie Mirata for an honest, funny, and heart-filled conversation about what it means to be a mom in our own way.

We talk about:
Why we’re not afraid to talk to our kids like real people
How loving big doesn’t always mean being at every single event
The lessons our kids learn from seeing us chase both motherhood and careers
Letting go of guilt and embracing the version of motherhood that works for you

If you’ve ever felt like you don’t fit the mold of what a “good mom” is supposed to look like, this episode will remind you — there’s more than one way to do it, and your way is exactly right.
