Another thing I try is to remind myself of where I am and why, right? When it's time for me to work,

I try to be all in on my work. When it's time for me to be mom and wife, I put that work away

and I try to be all in as mom and wife. It's a boundary I've created. Welcome back to the motherhood podcast, a live

workshop style podcast that is helping thousands of moms redefine their motherhood journey.

There was a point in my life when I was trying to do all the things, parent my kids,

pour into my marriage, run a busy law practice, keep up my home.

And what I found was that I was on the fast track to burnout until I discovered a better way.

Now I help women just like you to close the gap between their vision of motherhood and what

they're actually experiencing in their day-to-day lives.

Together, we'll explore when and

where to simplify, systemize, and surrender. I promise you, you're already doing so much better than

pandemic and you're still adjusting to it. But either way, you know that in order for us to get

any work done at home around our

kids, we have got to have some pretty good systems in place. And I always worked in an office,

mostly because the type of work I do, it just isn't that flexible. If I'm in hearings or depositions,

it's not typically something I can just easily step away from

if someone needs something from me. But when COVID first hit and everything shut down, we decided to

close our office. And like most of you, what we thought would be a week or two working from home,

just never really went back to normal. And even though our office has since reopened,

I'm still doing a good amount of work from home.
