You're listening to the Confident Mom podcast.

I'm Trish Blackwell, your host and Confidence Coach,

and this is a podcast community for busy moms who want to be confident

that they are being the best version of themselves they can be

so that ultimately they can be confident moms to the little ones God has given them.

I'm a first-time mom learning the ropes of motherhood and humbly learning from those who have gone before me on the beautiful journey it is to be a mom.

Welcome to the show. Welcome to the Confident Mom community. the talking about overcoming over scheduling today.

It's a great topic because it's a topic I need.

And I'm sure there's a lot of us out there.

I'm not gonna say that you need it,

but you probably know someone that does. This a gosh I want to say it's a disease and an

addiction that we all prescribed to without realizing it a lot of us feel this need to always be doing doing and we find ourselves living a life that's just completely over-scheduled and as Lisa Turkur's would say we live over-scheduled lives with underwhelmed souls.

And because the byproduct of being so freaking busy is that we actually miss out on the opportunity to live.

We don't have opportunity to just sit down, live, feel what it feels like to be human.

We're so often focused on a human doing that we forget that we really thrive and excel when we allow ourselves

opportunity to be what we were created to be and that is a human being just relishing and savoring what it means to be a human being.
