Hi, Fam!


Jun 3, 2019

Have you ever looked at your kids and wondered why you had them? Do you find yourself why you got into this or wanting some way out at times?

Whether you’re feeling burned out or want to prevent burnout, this episode is for you. Burnout is a very real risk we face as parents, and if you’re experiencing it now (or have ever experienced it), you’re not alone. And if you haven’t experienced it yet…prepare yourself, because it’s inevitable unless you take these precautions.  

In this episode, I’m sharing what parental burnout is, why it is important to avoid, and practical steps to take to avoid burning out...here’s what you’ll hear: 

 

[2:27] What is parental burnout?

[20:31] Just say NO!

[24:11] Bundle! 💕

[27:07] Back to basics

 

You are worth it. Your children are worth it. You deserve to enjoy this season of life and your kids deserve to see a parent who enjoys life and who takes good care of herself. Don’t wait until you burnout. Start taking these steps today!
