Summary

Monica Packer is passionate about teaching practical-but-deep transformation. As a podcaster and coach, she guides women to find sustainable growth by adopting progress over perfection. Monica is a former middle school teacher, a forever Oprah fangirl, a perpetual cookie dough maker, and an ambitious walker (the last one is a joke . . . sort of). She is also the Shameless Mom to 4 awesome kiddos, with a 5th on the way! This is Monica’s second time on the show and I just love how we were able to dig deep so quickly. This is a juicy conversation that you might want to listen to more than once. Prepare to take some notes! Listen in to hear Monica share: The most important thing for women to know about progress and personal growth The lie that women fall for over and over again The uncomfortable truth that growth is supposed to be slow The magic of time and compassion and how to use compassion to give yourself permission in hard moments and seasons The very specific process she uses to help women work toward any goal How to reconcile that your identity is formed by behavior and habits How men miss the mark when talking about women and their habits What successful consistency actually (surprisingly) looks like for women Links mentioned: Connect with Monica: https://aboutprogress.com/ Past SMA interview with Sara and Monica: Prioritizing Progress Over Perfection Monica’s Podcast: About Progress Get Monica’s Habit Class: aboutprogess.com/habitclass Monica on IG Thank you to our sponsors this month: Full-Time VA: Check out this free training on how to be a virtual assistant that makes full-time income with part-time hours: thefulltimeva.com/Shameless.
