Balanced Life Coaching

I remember driving to work each day thinking I would always be that tired.

I remember getting home from work feeling exhausted, but still had a long list of tasks to complete at home.

How in the world was I supposed to be present in my daughter’s lives and enjoy time with them?

The answer was, I couldn’t.

I knew I didn’t want to continue down this same path, so I followed a few specific steps that you can implement right now in your life.

I am not suggesting that your list isn’t important, but you can keep up with your list, and enjoy your family (all while taking care of yourself!!).

So, let’s touch on those steps:

Step 1: Start by making a master list of everything you are doing.

Consider things like:
- Household chores (laundry, cooking, cleaning, picking up toys, etc)
- Errands
- Kid activities
- Meal planning
- Appointment scheduling
- Commuting to work
- Working out

I recommend working on this for a week. Keep your list with you throughout the week and update it each time you catch yourself doing something new.

Step 2: Identify items on your list that bring you joy and that are mandatory.

Clearly, as moms, we have a number of items that are non-negotiables. Now is the time to quickly identify those items and highlight them. In addition, put a star next to the items that bring your joy!!

Step 3: Identify unnecessary busy work.

And finally, identify the items that drain you and that are not needed at all. In some cases, it might be the way you are doing these things. Sometimes we need to be more efficient with the task and it can stay on the list, so be very honest with yourself during this step.

For me, this helped me improve my relationship with my spouse and children. This helped improve my relationship with God and love my career again. A huge cherry on top of this sundae – I also lost 35 pounds!

Going through this process is easier with support and guidance. That’s exactly why I created Achieve, Balance and Commit for you.

In this self-paced coaching program, you will receive everything you need to:
- Assess your current goals.
- Eliminate what is not serving you!
- Create a plan to implement your desired changes!

And there is so much more included! You can do it all when it fits in YOUR schedule and in a budget-friendly way!

Isn't this a lovely thought? Working, while holding a baby and SMILING the entire time?

Do we have moments like this as working moms? Well, sure.

However, we also have PLENTY of moments that look nothing like this.

When we see images like this on social media, we quickly start to feel shame and like we are not enough.

When the truth is, no one does this perfectly. All you really need to do is find the right balance FOR YOU!

I find that most moms struggle with understanding what needs to change for them to experience peace and balance.

When a client completes their initial assessment with me, which is , I typically experience a huge aha moment when I read through it.

It's an amazing experience to help moms uncover this and truly experience a different life.

Moms, you do not have to wait until your kids are older, your job changes, you pay increases, this season is over, etc. You can make that change now. I did it. I have helped others do it and I can help you too.

Times have been challenging all over the world 🗺. Let’s take a look into some ways that you can deal with overwhelming emotions in your challenging times.
When in a situation where somebody or something has upset you and not being able to deal with your emotions first remember to take a breath. If you need, focus on your breathing and leave the situation and be alone for a moment.
Remember that reacting to the situation may be hurtful to you and others so make sure to examine your feelings so you can observe and describe your emotions well.
Become aware of your vulnerability. What is it that allows you to feel so overwhelmed?
Thoughts play an important role in coping with emotions. They are self-perpetuated so implementing alternative thoughts can help break the cycle of feeling frustrated angry and hopeless
Lastly for a moment or two distract yourself from the topic and don’t ever solve your problems hotheaded

If you have a teenager, especially in the era of no social contact, teenage anxiety can produce problems.
If your teenage child is feeling anxious make sure to let them know it’s normal to feel like that sometimes!
After acknowledging their fear and taking it seriously it is important to gently encourage the child to do the things they’re anxious about but never push them into a situation they don’t want to face.
Try setting up small goals for things that they feel a little anxious about. Encourage them to meet their goals and face their fears in a healthy, relaxed, and safe way!
Tell your child about the worries you had as a teenager and remind them that a lot of other kids are feeling stressed too. Help them understand it’s normal to go through big emotions and talk about other emotions
Show them love, show them affection, hug them regularly tell them that you love them!
Avoid labeling them as anxious and check if you’re being a good role model in the ways of how you are dealing with your emotions.
How did you deal with your anxiety? Leave some tips below.

When meditating, reciting a mantra is a great way to clear your mind. According to statistics, 31% of men and 36% of women in the US are looking for a way to reduce their stress and 30% find it difficult to relax in the evenings and on the weekdays. 7% of all genders say that they have trouble unwinding even while on vacation!
Here are a couple of great mantras to enhance your meditation. Number one on our list is definitely OM or the AUM mantra it is pronounced OHM and it means it is ‘it will be' or ‘to become’. This is a universal mantra it’s simple and has a specific sound to it and represents the original vibration of the cycle of life birth and death.
‘I am that I am’ mantra refers to the conscious presence of God that is everything and everything that it is the infinite God. In Hebrew, it is pronounced HAM - SAH and by repeating this mantra you acknowledge everything that you are.
And lastly, HAM - PREMA mantra pronounced as AAH - HAM - PREE - MAH and translates to ‘I am divine love ’. This mantra will align you with divine love and the unconditional love that is in you, improve acceptance purity compliance adoration forgiveness affection, and harmony. What is your favorite mantra?

Back on the topic of habits! Let’s look into some more daily habits that you can imply in your life to greatly improve your satisfaction, health, and inner peace. Happiness comes from within, the way you think is the way you do, if you start your day with a negative mindset, a big possibility is your day is going to stay the same. Work on practicing happiness, kindness, and love 💕, and yes they do require work!
You want to be financially stable, if possible, save 10% to 30% of your income by cutting off useless things like buying a latte every day or choosing an expensive version of certain products! Rainy days can happen any day and you want to be prepared.
Lastly, mindfulness 🧘🏽‍♂️ is a great way to practice being present. We get so focused on our goals that we forget to enjoy the present moment. realistically thinking, the past is a concept as well as the future, the only thing we really have is now and if you were not present now you’ll never be present!
Take a deep breath in and feel the brush of your clothes, calm your mind down and just enjoy being here.
