  • WPR012: Family Finances: Top 5 Tips to Get Organized and Meet Your Goals with Nicole Cooley

    22/03/2017 Duración: 46min

    Episode Summary:  In this episode we chat with Nicole Cooley, who is a corporate drop-out and momprenuer currently obsessed with sleep schedules, produce delivery and binge watching “The Good Wife.”  Her company Money With Moxie teaches women to be powerful with money and use it as a tool to design their ideal life. She does this by exploring limiting beliefs and value alignment, while building tangible debt and savings plans. Money is such a sensitive topic, but it’s a subject that I know every working family thinks about at least a little (and for some of you, a lot).  Everything changes when you have kids, and sometimes your financial situation is the thing that causes the most stress.  Maybe you have enough money, but you feel like you’re squandering it on useless items.  Or maybe just the weight of daycare costs and clothes and toys and all of the other expenses that add up truly do keep you up at night.  Our guest today has five awesome tips that can help you start to get more organized with your financ

    15/03/2017 Duración: 45min

    Episode Summary:  Today I am going to be chatting with you a bit about my favorite productivity strategies and how I personally juggle all of the different things I’m doing these days.    My goal with this episode is to not only inspire you to start integrating those things into your life that are really meaningful and will fulfill you – because I think we all really need that as working parents – but also to give you real strategies that you can apply to your own life that aren’t just going to distract you.  What You’ll Learn in This Episode:  The reason why I usually don’t like sharing “productivity hacks” and don’t put a whole lot of emphasis on them.  How I Identify which goals are worth pursuing and which ones aren’t worth my time.  How I set specific goals and outline a plan to achieve them.  How I work through those moments when I’m not motivated to continue toward my goals.  How I make sure I’m not sacrificing the things that are most important to me: specifically my health, my family, and my sanity.

    08/03/2017 Duración: 58min

    Episode Summary: In this episode we chat with Chuck Starnes who is a marriage coach in San Jose, California.  Chuck and I really dive deep on one of the topics that I know so many of you really struggle with: how to stay connected with your spouse when you’re raising a family and managing your career and running a household… there are just so many things that can pull us off track in our relationship, and Chuck’s advice and insights are so on point. In this episode we talk a lot about why conflict doesn’t have to be a bad thing in your relationship, and in fact, why experiencing conflict in your relationship really means you’re probably with the perfect person.  We also dive into some specific tools couples can use to re-connect if they’ve been feeling distant or if they’ve been bickering with each other more than usual.  And we’ll talk about how we can look deeper at what we’re fighting about to REALLY grow as individuals and to strengthen our marriage. Chuck Starnes has a Master’s degree from Pepperdine Uni

    01/03/2017 Duración: 01h04min

    Episode Summary: I could just talk to our guest today, Monica Froese, forever.  She is honestly a reservoir of helpful information and a pioneer who’s doing what she can to help working families create more balanced and less stressful lives.  She’s a working mom herself who’s felt the exhaustion and the frustration, and decided to take matters into her own hands to start a productive conversation to begin changing things for the better (a girl after my own heart!).  I truly enjoyed this conversation, and love the message she’s spreading.

  • WPR008: The Moment I Realized What Being a Parent Means to Me

    22/02/2017 Duración: 36min

    Episode Summary: This episode is one of my “Moments of Truth” episodes, where I describe one of those pivotal moments in my life where my perspective permanently changed.  As we all know, hindsight can be 20/20, and when I look back on my life I’m able to identify some of these moments where everything I had thought was true, ended up not really fitting for me anymore… these are some of the moments in my life where I changed as a person and my perspective shifted for the better.  In this episode we’ll be talking about the moment I realized what being a parent really means to me.  We all become a parent the day our first child joins our family.  But it took me a little time to realize what taking on that role would really mean in my life.  So today I want to go through the process I went through, some of the discoveries I made about myself and about my role as a parent, and I’ll talk a bit about how this shift in my perspective really changed the way I approached being a parent forever.  This was my experience

  • WPR007: Building Strength & Identity Through the Tough Moments with Becky Burgess

    15/02/2017 Duración: 01h07min

    Episode Summary: In this episode we talk about finding strength and identity in those tough moments of parenthood, and goodness knows we have plenty of those as working parents right? I loved this conversation with our guest Becky Burgess.  I had so many questions prepared for her, and I didn't touch on most of them because our conversation just flowed so organically in wonderful directions.  I loved the vulnerability and the heart and the wisdom that Becky shared with us today, and I hope you do too! Becky Burgess is a mother of two and a wife to her high school sweetheart. She owns a social media marketing company, Splash Owl Media. When she was pregnant with her first baby, she decided she wanted to have an all-natural childbirth, and she had both of her children via water-birth at a birthing center. After a series of difficult personal events including getting fired from her job during her maternity leave and dealing with postpartum depression, she started seeing a therapist and was finally able to set so

  • WPR006: Are You REALLY Screwing Up Your Kid? How to Know for Sure with Kelly Watanabe and Maren Dalgaard

    08/02/2017 Duración: 01h14min

    Episode Summary: This episode is actually a panel, where two guests and I do a roundtable discussion of our topic, “Are you really screwing up your kids (and how to know for sure).”  Before I even started this podcast, I knew I’d be doing at least some of these panels, because I think so many of the conversations we have as working parents have many different perspectives, and I want to reflect that in the conversations we have here on the show.  I want the Working Parent Resource platform to reflect the reality of the situations we face, because so much of what’s written out there is so opinionated and judgmental and doesn’t really provide the full picture.  That nuance really seems to be lacking in what I consume about parenting and balancing work and family and all of the rest of it, so these panel discussions are my effort give a more realistic sense of the topics we’re exploring.   In this particular episode, my goal is to help you start distinguishing between the things that may be causing unnecessary s

  • WPR005: Finding Yourself Again: Postpartum Advice for Working Parents with Judy Tsuei

  • WPR004: The "I Don't Have Enough Time" Struggle

    18/01/2017 Duración: 32min

    Episode Summary: Today I’m going to be talking about this phrase and this concept that I really can’t escape these days:  The “I Don’t Have Enough Time” Struggle. I know if you’re a working parent, you’ve probably uttered these words more than once.  When people ask how you’re doing, you respond “I’m so busy!  I just can’t keep up!”  When you’re running late to yet another meeting or appointment or even a fun social engagement, you quickly say “I’m so sorry I’m late, I just don’t know where the time went!”  And when I ask working parents what they’re biggest struggle is, they don’t even pause before they say: “I just don’t have enough time!” So today I wanted to dive a little deeper into this idea that we just don’t have enough time as working parents.  Do we have LIMITED time?  Of course!  We all do.  And there’s just no way around that.  Do we have ENOUGH time?  Well, at the end of the day, it’s all about your perspective.  I personally feel like I have plenty of time for the things that are important to me

  • WPR002: My "I Can't Do This Anymore" Working Mom Moment

    18/01/2017 Duración: 55min

    Episode Summary: Today I’m going to do one of my “Moments of Truth” episodes, where I tell you a personal story from a moment in my past when I learned an important life lesson.  In all of these Moments of Truth episodes, my goal is to pinpoint that moment where there was a fundamental shift in my perspective in life.  These moments changed who I was as a person on a deeper level.  And now that I have some hindsight (and honestly, I’ve done YEARS of therapy and learning and self-reflection and introspection on some of these issues), so I can look back and see that there was a pretty clear BEFORE and an AFTER to these moments.  So today I wanted to drill down and analyze the details of actually HAPPENED in this situation to shape the trajectory of my life.  And hopefully, if you’ve gone through anything similar or if you’re going through something like this now, you can benefit from some of the hard stuff I went through and maybe it won’t be quite so hard for you. Today I’ll be sharing with you my “I can’t do
