37. Feeling Pulled in Every Direction? Daily Routines and Boundaries for Work-Life Balance for Moms

Do you feel like you’re constantly whispering "I’m sorry"? Maybe you’re apologizing to your kids because you need to send emails or apologizing to your clients. After all, your kids are interrupting your call. You aren't failing—you're just trying to balance the two callings God gave you without the right systems in place. In this episode, we’re talking about mom guilt and how simple boundaries and routines can help reduce that guilt."

We’re talking about how to set boundaries that protect your peace and implement simple, flexible routines that allow you to show up fully for your business and your family. Because you were created in God’s image, you were designed with purpose—not for overwhelm.

Why feeling "pulled in every direction" is a sign that you care, not a sign that you’re doing it wrong. If we keep trying to do it all and keep striving for perfection, we are always going to have mom guilt because we think we are failing.

Today we are talking about the boundaries we need in place and what routines will support them so we can stick to those boundaries. 

I walk you through the mistakes I made and how you can get rid of that mom guilt.
