Hello Friend,

I have a heartfelt episode for all you today who may be feeling a bit run down and exhausted. You know when you start to get into a rut, and you feel like you cannot escape the day to day heaviness of your duties as a Mom?

When every single day Is like a repeat of the first. Especially when we're at home with our kids for long periods of time. It can feel like everyone needs something from us constantly.

You can't go more than 5 minutes without needing to stop what you're doing and attend to a sibling fight, a pressing question, or a hungry tummy.

BUT, point being. If you are also living in this reality right now. You're feeling unmotivated, down, like your needs don't matter as much, or you just aren't prioritizing yourself...it can really start to weigh on your mind and you can't keep each day feeling that way.

You need to find a way to get your spark back, and find some encouragement as a stay at home mom who is lacking motivation because you are feeling discouraged.

In this episode today, we will talk about...

 5 ideas for you to try to find your spark back. To start feeling encouraged and excited about your days with your little kids in tow.

We know that clutter and constant mess can make the whole family feel tense, and less able to enjoy our time at home. Less clutter In our minds and our home Itself.

BUT HOW do we actually achieve this peaceful environment that we want not only for ourselves, but also for our families?

In this episode today, we will talk about...

We are diving back Into the basics to remind ourselves, or maybe learn for the first time. The 3 Steps to finally getting an organized home that your family feels at peace to be In, and enjoys being In.

• Part 3 - HOW to ensure you are taking daily action towards getting those tasks done, using 4 simple steps
• Part 4 - HOW to balance all those 'other' cleaning tasks that we still need to get done on a weekly basis. Never-ending laundry piles anyone?

In last week's episode I gave you a permisison slip to START SMALL when it comes to getting organized, and tackling all those little organizing projects around your home or in your life.

Building on that...I don't want you running straight to the dollar store with credit card out throwing any cheap organizing product you can find into your cart.

We need to answer the question, are dollar store products worth it?

If we are starting SMALL when it comes to getting organized, then isn't the dollar store an acceptable place to shop for some of the tools you may need to organize your closet, cupboard, bedroom etc?

In this episode today, we will talk about...

I want to give you 3 SIMPLE TIPS to keep in mind when you are out shopping at the dollar store....or ANY place where you can find organizing products for 'less' to help you determine

1. Is this worth it?

1. Am I actually paying more than I mean too for this?

1. Is the quality going to stand up?

1. Is it wiser to invest in something else that is sized better for my space?

 

We don't want to fall into the trap of thinking that organizing products have to cost a bunch of money...no. I am not here for that. BUT we DO have to be careful and strategic about what we are buying and where from.

So keep these little tips in your back pocket next time you head out.

Happy organizing friends, and all the best!

The Spring Cleaning 101 Series has come to a close. To conclude the series, I hosted a Spring Clean Reset Masterclass this past Monday.

 

In this episode today, we will talk about...

Today, I wanted to give you a peek behind the scenes into a clip from the Masterclass.

In Step 2 of the Masterclass, we talked about the importance of taking a look at the big picture of our complex lives as a whole. Before zooming in to tackle specific goals related to organizing our home, head or heart. 

We have purposefully worked backward throughout the entire Spring Cleaning 101 Series, to show you how Important It Is to put proper focus on organizing / tidying up the various areas of our lives In the proper order.

Home Organization and Spring Cleaning our homes Is actually one of the LAST pieces of the Organized Motherhood puzzle....

What comes VERY FIRST Is organizing ourselves - which Is exactly what we talked about in the Spring Clean Reset Masterclass as we reviewed how the Mommin'3 Method™ Framework guides our organizational journey as busy moms.

Welcome back to the show my Friend!

Have you ever experimented with getting all the unnecessary apps and social media things off your phone to see what would happen to your focus, your peace, and your productivity? Do you have a possibly have a bit of a phone addiction?

I did...and apparantely still do. But the problem Is I did not even realize how bad It was or how quickly I would fall back Into this trap.

I've been on a journey over the past year or so, of intentionally removing social media apps from my phone for periods of time. In hopes of regaining control over my time and attention. Upon recently re-downloading some apps to my phone; partly out of necessity, partly for experimentation, I could not believe how quickly this sneaky little addiction popped back In, and how easily I accidentally found myself back In old habits.

In this episode today, we will talk about...

I am sharing the #1 way of being aware of the productivity trap that your phone Is pulling you Into without even realizing It.

You CAN be more productive, focused and organized and fight against the addictive pull of your phone If you want too, and make the decision to Intentionally monitor your phone usage

Listen In for some tips on how to keep It at a distance, treat It like the tool It Is rather than being a reward, and how to not use It mindlessly and not be aware of how much time you are really spending on It.

I have a very special episode for you today! The very first guest on the show, and an expert in her field. We had a wonderful conversation that I can't wait to share with you today! Have you found yourself acting In a way you did not mean too, simply because you where feeling overwhelmed and stressed out In a hard moment? You have a deadline to meet, everything In your mind Is piled a mile high and suddenly the kids are throwing every excuse they can at you as you are trying to herd them out the door. Thinking to yourself "why can't they just hurry up this morning, I have so much to do!"

Suddenly you are speaking more loudly and angrily than you mean too, and the situation escalates. Which then has to be de-escalated before you can successfully get out the door...and now you are late!

We have all been there, whether It Is to get to an appointment or knock something off that to-do list. Believe It or not, the way we behave Is actually the starting ground for being more productive, present and ultimately getting more done.

With that, I am thrilled to welcome my friend, and very first guest to the show, Charlotte Haggie.

Welcome back to Fun Friday's!

Have you ever arrived home from the store, SO excited about the new winter coat you just scored on sale. As you're telling your husband, "Look how cute it is! It was only 20 bucks!"

He says, "doesn't she have a new winter coat already..?" Indeed, he is right! You totally forgot that you had already purchased a coat and now have to go to the hassle of returning it.

I don't know about you, but with so many kids in the house I have a hard time keeping track of what clothes and shoes we have at any given time. Specifically outdoor wear as those items tend to be the most expensive and are passed down from kid to kid.

Have you ever considered keeping track ....like an actual inventory list of the coats, boots, mittens, snow pants, all those things you have. So you know at a glance before the start of ever new season if you need to be buying some larger sizes.

Or when you are at the store to help talk yourself OUT of purchasing that coat you don't need because you can easily see from your list that you already have a winter coat in that exact same size at home...just a slightly different style.

Well friend, I have tips for you today to help you tackle this project for yourself so you never have to wonder again.

In this episode today, we will talk about...

The three steps you can follow to create your own simple inventory list, to help you know EXACTLY what outdoor wear you already have. As well as knowing exactly what size you need for the following season.

By creating an inventory list of your children's outdoor clothing and shoes it benefits you by...

1. Preventing over-buying of items you do not need

2. Knowing exactly WHEN to take advantage of good deals and sales at the change of seasons so you are prepared with the right size of coats, shoes etc for the following season

3. Have a better idea of what articles of clothing you can pass on to siblings or friends and family

Welcome to the Master Organized Motherhood Show!

 

Have you tried all the organizing tips and tricks in the past, only for it all to fall apart again as soon as you have a busy week? Do you feel like you have no time for your daily to-do list, let alone any extra tasks? Are you constantly interrupted by the needs of others in the middle of doing important home management duties? Do you feel frustrated that your family members do not maintain those spaces that you worked so hard to get organized?

 

Hey there fellow Mom friend, I’m Amy. And I’ve been where you are. As someone who loved organization, I was baffled to suddenly feel incapable of staying organized after having my kids. I found myself struggling to stay on top of daily tasks, while keeping my family happy and the home running smoothly. As a work from home Mom of 4 young kids myself, I understand the challenges that Moms face in serving our families, and managing our homes, while also trying to keep our own needs for a clean and orderly home met.

 

Through my own personal journey from daily overwhelm and stress to finding myself again as an organized Mom, I discovered a 3 Step Process I now call the Mommin’3 Method™.

In this podcast we will look for solutions to our #Momlife organization problems by using the steps of this method.

We are going to talk about all those factors that influence how we ditch overwhelm and BECOME Organized as busy Mom’s. We will cover ways to organize your self and family, how to organize rooms and items in the home. As well as discuss the emotional factors that influence organizing.

 

This podcast is for you if….

 

• You recognize the need for more organization and balance in your life but need help getting there.
• You are aware of the challenges and struggles of managing a busy household and taking care of children, but you don’t want chaos and disarray to ensue because of that.
• You are tired of the constant overwhelm and are paralyzed by your to-do list and taking care of your families needs.

 

I am now on a mission to help other Mom’s give themselves permission to take the time to become organized, so that we can feel happy, motivated, and at peace again in our homes. So go ahead, search for that cup of coffee you set down somewhere, grab a notebook and get ready to listen. I am ready to fill your cup with encouragement, truth bombs, and practical tips for Mastering Organized Motherhood.

Welcome back to the show my Friend!

We have to talk about seasons a little bit. No, I don't mean seasons that bring dumps of fluffy white snow, or seasons of warm air and hot sun warming our faces.

Seasons of unsettledness, overwhelm, more on our plates <-- those types of seasons

I myself am ALSO in one of these seasons right now....which is partly why this episode is a day late dropping into your podcast players 😉

 

Are you in a place of chaos, stress, overwhelm and feeling unsettled right now?

Whether the external stressors you are facing right now are coming from work, personal life, relationships, money, the world....SO many different circumstances can threaten to throw us off track and derail us from our big picture goals, priorities and dreams. 

In this episode today, we will talk about...

WHAT do we need to do in difficult seasons to ensure we don't get off track?

The answer --> setting our BIGGEST priorities that align with our big picture goals, dreams, hopes....

I encourage you, 

- take some notes

- identify your top 2-3 biggest priority 'categories' in your life right now

- tackle one small task in each of these categories each day

 

Don't loose hope, difficult seasons always pass eventually. How we persevere and stay strong is what matters 💪🏻

Happy Wednesday and Welcome to the Show!

Have you heard that new idea popping up lately that it can actually take years for your body to recover 100% from pregnancy and child birth? This is compounded and takes even longer when you have multiple children.

Point being, you can't trust your brain to function the same way it did before kids. It is a fundamentally, chemically different organ now that you have a family to care for.

So, when we fool ourselves into thinking that we can function to our best ability without having an external system or method for keeping our brain focused and on track. We are asking for disaster...

In this episode today, we will talk about...

Today, I have 4 reasons to share with you today, that are going to either convince you that you HAVE to use a planner this year, OR it will reinforce that you made a good decision by buying a planner, and will motivate you to use it as consistently as possible...okay.

Let's go! Grab something to write down these 4 reasons, and track down your coffee cup...it's time to learn!
