  • The Permission Slip You Need

    If you think that everyone else has it together, you’re a “bad” mom because you yelled at your kids (again), and you have to do it all because there’s no other option - there is hope. JoAnn is a compassionate, helpful guide in your parenting journey. She provides the “permission slips” you need to stop being a martyr mom and find yourself again - while still giving your kids the love and support they need.

    I was thrilled to be a recent guest on the podcast because JoAnn speaks right to the hea... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Why You Keep Checking to See If You're Doing Enough with Jess Ekstrom
Q: What is the Spotlight vs Lighthouse framework and how can it apply to parenting and speaking?
Spotlight is about seeking approval and worrying about perception; lighthouse is about guiding and meeting others where they are, which makes communication more helpful and authentic in both public speaking and parenting.
Why You Feel Guilty Setting Boundaries at Work (And Why Squishy Ones Work Better) with Courtney Cecil
Q: How should a supervisor approach boundaries with direct reports to avoid taking on too much oneself?
Clarify accountability with each direct report, avoid overperforming for others, and establish a culture where boundaries are respected as a shared responsibility, not an individual burden.
Why You Feel Guilty Setting Boundaries at Work (And Why Squishy Ones Work Better) with Courtney Cecil
Q: What would you say to someone about implementing boundaries at work without burning relationships or harming career progression?
Be crystal about what you are hired to do, articulate your boundaries aloud, and ask the right questions to prioritize work that truly aligns with higher-level goals; negotiate what can be de-prioritized and present it in a way that shows you are protecting the priority while still delivering value.
Why You Feel Guilty Setting Boundaries at Work (And Why Squishy Ones Work Better) with Courtney Cecil
Q: From your perspective, why do working moms feel overwhelmed even when they are doing everything right?
Because there are no effective permission structures at home and at work, and high achievers push beyond healthy limits; without clear boundaries and societal support, the mental load compounds, leading to chronic overwhelm.
Why You're Not Messy (Your Organizing System Just Doesn't Match Your Brain) with Cas Aarssen
Q: I want to hear about these four Clutterbug organization styles. You have the bee, the ladybug, the cricket, and the butterfly. Can you walk us through what each of them are?
Cas explains that butterflies are visual and non-detailed, crickets are traditional detail-oriented organizers, bees are visual and detailed, and ladybugs are non-detailed and prefer things hidden; most people lean toward one dominant style but can adapt in different spaces.
