    I happened to stumble of Courtney’s Podcast a little while ago and i honestly think she’s the best friend I never met.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

What self-care actually looks like when you have no time, with Leslie Forde | Ep. 83 | Working Moms Movement
Q: What should a listener do if they feel overwhelmed by all the competing demands?
Start with small, tangible changes that align with core values, use the Life Management System to re-prioritize infrastructure, and practice turning off non-critical tasks to protect focus and energy for what truly matters.
What self-care actually looks like when you have no time, with Leslie Forde | Ep. 83 | Working Moms Movement
Q: How can employers support working parents without giving special treatment?
By offering flexible expectations, clear pathways for mental-health support, and a work design that respects the actual time and energy required to balance caregiving with performance, rather than simply expecting more output with the same resources.
What self-care actually looks like when you have no time, with Leslie Forde | Ep. 83 | Working Moms Movement
Q: What practical steps can a listener take this week to start repairing their time and energy?
Identify a low-friction self-care action that fits your routine (like a 5- to 15-minute daily habit), protect a time block for deep work or rest, and map your personal hierarchy of needs to see what actually matters for energy and calm.
What self-care actually looks like when you have no time, with Leslie Forde | Ep. 83 | Working Moms Movement
Q: How do you define self-care in the day-to-day, not just in theory?
Self-care is about small, everyday actions aligned with your values—sleep, movement, stress management, and meaningful rest—that can be done within a tight schedule, rather than sporadic spa days that don't fit daily life.
What self-care actually looks like when you have no time, with Leslie Forde | Ep. 83 | Working Moms Movement
Q: What was the moment you realized you needed to change your approach to self-care?
The realization came after a period of burnout when the expectations at work and at home collided, making it clear that the existing infrastructure could not support both performance and well-being; choosing to downshift and renegotiate responsibilities was the turning point.
