Show Notes: The Power of Feeling Good
Hey, hey friend! Welcome to Episode #112 of The Secrets of Supermom Show!
Do you believe work-life balance is simply not possible with the load you carry?
I see you.
You are spending late nights and early mornings just trying to catch up.
Your to-do list feels like it gets longer by the minute.
You have your laptop with you wherever you go.
You constantly feel exhausted and drained even after the occasional good night’s sleep–if you can even squeeze in one.
You feel under pressure every day, even when you “should” be relaxing.
What if I told you there was a better way?
What if I told you that you didn’t have to choose home over work or trade one for the other?
What if there was a completely different way you could look at work-life balance that actually worked?
If you found yourself nodding along, I personally invite you to register for my free workshop where I unlock the secrets to help you achieve real work-life balance even as a crazy busy, seriously ambitious mom.
I can’t wait to show you what it’s like to have more time, less stress, and boundaries you can count on. Head to secretsofsupermom.com/balance for all the details!
I had the pleasure of attending a training by Heather Chauvin in a mastermind group, getting to ask her all the questions. So, I am just so thrilled that she agreed to join us on the show.
Heather is a leadership coach who helps ‘successful’ women courageously and authentically live, work, and parent on their own terms.
She started her career as a social worker helping adults understand children’s behavior. But it wasn’t until 2013 when a stage 4 cancer diagnosis pushed her to take a deeper stand for change, uncovering how cultural expectations sabotage our dreams. She has been featured in Forbes, Entrepreneur, Real Simple Magazine, Mind Body Green, Google, and more.
When Heather isn’t working, you will find her living out what she teaches which may include kayaking Alaska, snowboarding, hiking, or anything else that challenges what she believes is possible for herself (and inviting her children along the journey). Life is full of opportunities. It’s time to feel alive.
I am thrilled to introduce you to Heather Chauvin.
