How do you do it all as a busy working mom? I don’t do it all. I have villages far and near that support me. I do it with my community…Working moms need community!

Working Mom Working From Hme

My family. My friends. My church family, women’s ministry, small groups. My fitness family. My amazing cleaning service. My bad a$$ entrepreneur friends. With my Savior as my anchor. 

My favorite bible verse is…

I can do all things through Christ who Strengthens me. Philippians 4:13

You can’t do it all by yourself, mama! We all need help.

Working Moms Need Community

Have you wondered how other working moms do it all? Ever been asked, how you do it all? Are you struggling to do it all?

Me too! Same here, mama!
I wondered how working moms “balance” it all.
Yes, I have been asked how I do it all and have struggled immensely trying to do it all.

I tried doing it all by myself and almost broke. Well, I broke. But out of that brokenness, I found myself. I discovered who I am and who I want to be. And, I learned the power of community…

There is Power In Having Community

The power of having a village. And let me tell you, I’m discovering the power of community more each day, especially these last 15 months of the pandemic. I wouldn’t be here without my village. 

Working moms, you need Community. You need a village or villages in order to have it all and do it all!

But, first, you need to pause and reconnect with yourself in order to find out who you are in this season of life and who you want and need to be…not only for your sake but also for everyone’s sake that depends on you.

When you take time and pause, you will be able to start learning what you need to do in order to become that person.

So mama, take some time to pause and discover yourself in order for you to show up as your best self for everyone you love, support and serve. 

That’s how you do it all. And have it all. A career that fulfills you, a family, and a life where you’re rocking it as a working mom. With your Village. Your Tribe. Your community! 

You can have it all with your village, your tribe, your community.

You Need To Take Time & Pause

Remember to first, make and take time to discover yourself. Listen, taking time for yourself is not only about you, and it’s darn well not selfish! Check out my article on the Benefits of Working Moms taking Me Time.

Ready to find & take time for yourself? Take my FREE 3 Day Me Time Challenge now.

Here are 6 questions for you as a working mom to ask yourself & start reconnecting and discovering who you are in this season of your life. Did you hear what I said? In this season of your life!

Mama, remember as long as you’re living your growing and evolving and so are your kids, husband, teams, and the world. 

Who you were before you become a working mom may not be who you are today. Let the questions below spark the fire within you and have fun discovering who you are. I’m excited for you, mama!

 

Working Moms Self Assessment Questions

  1. What’s most important to you in this season of life? List them.
  2. What makes your heart lights up and brings me joy? That joy you feel in your heart, chest, and gut.
  3. What’s the biggest pain/s in my tush now? 
  4. What have I been putting off until this and that is right?
  5. What would I be doing now with myself if I had no limitations?
  6. What are some of the things I would do if I only had six months to a year left on earth?

Listen, mama, it’s time for you to stop existing and start living. You were sent here for a reason. You have a purpose! Your family, friends, and the world need you! You are needed and worthy! 

Stop Sabotaging Yourself!

Another tip to help you get through the challenges. Life is hard. If everything was easy we wouldn’t appreciate it, right! Know that everyone has challenges and things will happen to us that we have no control over. How we decide to react or not react makes a tremendous difference.

Have you ever seen someone that got the worst medical diagnosis or life happened? But, they decided to have a positive attitude and fight with hope, gratitude, and joy? Miracles happen!

Arm yourself to take on and combat those challenges!

Work on becoming the person you need to become in order to be the person you feel called to be!

The Rockstar Career Mom You Are!

You have everything within you to become who you need to be. You just need to unlock them. You absolutely got this! Make today be the day you decide to start living and stop existing. We need you, mama! The world needs you! You need YOU too!

Check out the working moms’ “me time” challenge. This is a great place to start.

What’s your favorite season?⁣ ⁣ The mornings What’s your favorite season?⁣
⁣
The mornings are getting darker and the days shorter here in Chicagoland. ⁣
⁣
We can feel and see  the shift in the weather too. Although summer is acting out and showing off these last few days. 🔥☀️🕶️⁣
⁣
There’s a shift of season in our household too as our kids get ready to go back to school. ⁣
⁣
We have seasons too as working mothers. Some we can see and feel at home, at work, with our kids and within ourselves. ⁣
⁣
The shifts within yourself as a working mother aren’t always easy to see or feel though. ⁣
⁣
It’s important to reflect and check in with yourself often or you’ll miss these shifts within yourself… ⁣
⁣
Especially as a busy high achieving rockstar working mom juggling multiple hats and roles. ⁣
⁣
Comment below or send me a DM if you’d like a tool to help you discover the working mom season or phase you’re in. ⁣
⁣
You got this mama!⁣

Let It Go!⁣
⁣
Let Your Weight Go! ⁣
⁣
No matter the weight of the load you’re carrying over time it becomes increasingly difficult to hold.⁣
⁣
I was reminded again how seemingly “light weights” will undoubtedly become heavier the longer you hold them during weight training last week.⁣
⁣
The weight you hold on to whether tangible or intangible, figurative or actual weight…will become heavier and affect you in some way. ⁣
⁣
Ask for help.⁣
Get help.⁣
Hire help.⁣
Outsource.⁣
⁣
Sometimes you just need to cry it out. ⁣
Journal.⁣
Talk with somebody.⁣
Go for a run or just move your body. ⁣
⁣
Life is a challenge. Add being a working mother wearing multiple hats trying to rock life at home and at work…⁣
⁣
The weight of your entire load can become so heavy without you recognizing how it’s affecting you. ⁣
⁣
I highly encourage you to 𝘵𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘢 𝘮𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘦𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘭𝘰𝘢𝘥 as you begin your week. Especially if you’re feeling frustrated, overwhelmed and a bag of unknown emotions and feelings….⁣

Have a wonderful week.⁣

We must generate the mood we want AND need especia We must generate the mood we want AND need especially when life and our world seems bleak. ⁣
⁣
We cannot leave ourselves vulnerable to whatever life throws our way. ⁣
⁣
Every day that we open our eyes We GET TO decide on the mood we want to have.⁣
⁣
Some of us have to fight harder to overcome internal and external stuff…𝘒𝘦𝘦𝘱 𝘧𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘰𝘥, 𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘨𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘷𝘪𝘣𝘦𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥, 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦!⁣

Big up to all the women and working moms who are u Big up to all the women and working moms who are unapologetically embracing who they are and going after the lives they feel called to.⁣

⁣
Thank You for showing other women and working moms that they CAN too. ⁣
⁣
Thank you for showing me that I don’t have to settle. ⁣
⁣
Thank you for showing me that I’m not alone and that there is INDEED another way! ⁣
⁣
THANK YOU!⁣
⁣
Being a working mother shouldn’t be this difficult. Especially during this time! ⁣
⁣
NO! IT SHOULD NOT! ⁣
⁣
Thank you for encouraging me to dream beyond my wildest dreams. ⁣
⁣
I know it’s not easy. ⁣
⁣
Keep showing up for yourself. It gives others permission to do the same. ⁣
⁣
I’m extraordinarily grateful for the women and working mothers that are stepping into who they are and creating the lives they want, need and love, despite the challenges.⁣
⁣
You give me and other women and working moms hope and belief which allows us to give ourselves permission to go after the working mom lives we want too.⁣

It’s mid week, mid month and just over four mont It’s mid week, mid month and just over four months before 2024.⁣
⁣
Let’s do a quick self check. ⁣
⁣
Are you truly ALL in? ⁣
⁣
Are you unconsciously giving yourself a way out ? Or self sabotaging? 😬⁣
⁣
Our doubts, fears and lack of belief can unknowingly affect how we approach and go after our goals. ⁣
⁣
Especially those new BIG and scary goals…⁣
⁣
And even those goals you’ve been working towards for years. ⁣
⁣
Check in with yourself, mama!⁣

P.S. Re the video…⁣
I was trying to capture the breathtaking view getting off the highway as we got to Ocho Rios 🇯🇲. The camera don’t do it justice.
I promised to share pictures giving a better view I promised to share pictures giving a better view of the process of making our garden. Ahem, farm! 😜😂⁣
⁣
I’m only the helper. This is one of my husbands projects. ⁣
⁣
We’ve been gardening before we had kids, and it’s evolved over the years. ⁣
⁣
The pictures begin showing some of the food we’ve made from our harvest so far…⁣
⁣
Then gives you a chronicle of the process. ⁣
⁣
The first video is from the morning after we got back from vacation. ⁣
⁣
The next shows the day we planted. Guys, it’s only 16 days between! ⁣
⁣
I’m still blown away how fast everything grew AND produced veggies! ⁣
⁣
A few factors that made a difference: ⁣
⁣
1. The soil was well fertilized. My husband had a compost going since last year and we bought “good” soil this year. ⁣
⁣
2. The raised bed gardens and bird netting provided protection. ⁣
⁣
3. Hubby installed a timed water system since we were going to be away for a while. ⁣
⁣
3. We were fortunate that it rained a lot while we were away on vacation. ⁣
⁣
4. The experience, research, planning and strategic execution done by my husband. ⁣
⁣
They’re so many lessons in gardening we can use in various areas of our lives as we work towards our goals. ⁣
⁣
Put in the work, know they’re unknowns that will occur and adjust accordingly. ⁣
⁣
Much Love,⁣
Yamiek ⁣
