Stay-at-FULL Motherhood | SAHM, Prioritize, End Distraction, Get it Done, Rushing, Flailing, Mom Guilt
Kids & Family Podcasts
Do you wish you could just GET THINGS DONE so you can be free to pursue your passion and NOT feel guilty about your to-do list? Are you tired of waiting patiently for the day your kids are all in school so you can finally take time for YOU? Is the chaos in your home and your mind driving you to distraction...leaving you wondering if you’ll ever trust yourself enough to really follow through on what you feel pulled to do? I’m so glad you’re here! Each week I’ll help you create clarity, find your focus, and get things done so you can switch off from your to-dos and tune into your passion and potential. When you learn to prioritize YOUR WAY, you realize it never had to be about the kids coming first, or your partner taking precedence, or honing the housework, or pushing what YOU want aside at all. Hi, I’m Jo, mom-of-three, pilot wife, and Life Coach for stay-at-home moms. For the first seven years of being a mom, I longed to start a blog, yet never once put actual pen to paper. I told myself I’d have time once I stopped breastfeeding; once I’d decluttered our home; once my husband was flying less; once the kids were all in school. I finally realized that if I wanted to free myself from the loop of “one day when”, I needed to learn to prioritize what mattered to me, let go of outside expectations, and trust that what I wanted was meant for me - TODAY! I created a simple method that will teach you to see yourself as more than your productivity and to create calm so you can get what matters DONE - and I can’t wait to share it with you. If you’re ready to be present with your kids without feeling pulled in all directions AND light yourself up in the pursuit of your passion WITHOUT doing more - you’re in the right place. So take a deep breath in, remind yourself you’re worth the effort, and breathe into your knowing that you are capable of anything YOU decide you want for yourself. Let’s go, mama!

Feeling Frustrated at Your Messy Life? How to Come Out Of It Without Adding More to Your To-Do List
4/23/2024
We’re all trying to make motherhood easier - by researching tips, tricks and hacks on the internet and looking for systems someone else has created that are guaranteed to transform our lives from messy to mastered. But the thing is, we already know everything we need to know; there’s just one thing we don’t want to DO…and that’s to feel the feelings that are bound to come up when we start to approach trying to make a change in our lives at home. In today’s episode, we explore why we would WANT to feel those feelings and the benefits of being in the discomfort of doing so - so that we can truly accept where we are now AND move forward with the changes we want to make.

4/10/2024

Stay-at-Home Mom Guilt and Money: What It’s Really About
4/2/2024
When we’re feeling guilty about not contributing financially, this is often not about the money at all. There IS a gap here, but it might not be monetary; instead it could well be about the gap between your expectations of stay-at-home motherhood and your reality as you’re now living it. Listen to today’s episode, which explores this gap, your resentment towards your partner, and the information it gives you about your longing for something more, and then come sign up for a free discovery session at my website: www.joyfullmamacoaching.com

Why Beating Yourself Up for Running Late Will Only Ever Keep You Running
3/27/2024
When we’ve been rushing and running late for many years, we see this as part of our identity - just WHO we are. But this is not who we are, it’s how our nervous system is responding to a perceived danger or threat, and we can help ourselves by bringing ourselves back to a feeling of safety.

Why You Don’t Yet Trust Yourself and How to Start
3/19/2024
We were taught as kids to hand our authority over to others - someone else always knew best. So it’s no surprise that you still tend to do that now - after all it’s what is known and safe. But it didn’t feel good in your body when you did that as a kid, and it definitely doesn’t feel good now. You can learn to trust what your body is telling you about what’s right for you - and that starts with slowing down enough to listen to it.

What Your Self-Esteem Wants You to STOP Doing and Why It Matters
2/27/2024
As stay-at-home moms we have so much more power than we think we do to create the experience we want for ourselves. We can step into our more empowered selves any time we want to, yet we so often take this away from ourselves by not seeing the CHOICE that’s available to us in any given moment. In this episode we talk about why it’s important to regard yourself enough to listen to what YOU have to say about what you want to create and how to take that first step towards it. Each and every time you do this, you add another piece to your blueprint of healthy self-esteem. Living your life YOUR way with permission from no-one but yourself is all about being willing to step into the unknown and try the new thing. And learning through experience that it’s safe for you to do this - and that nothing will fall apart when you do.

Why You Want to Focus on Feeling, Not Fixing
2/20/2024
What are you moving towards? Do you know where you’re headed? Are you clear on what you’re intentionally choosing for yourself? It’s very easy to get caught up in all the DOING and perpetually seeing problems that need fixing…until you reach a point where you’ve lost touch with why you started doing the thing at all. In today’s episode we’re talking about bringing ourselves back to what we originally wanted when we started out on a path, checking that that dream is still alive in us, and ultimately coming home to the desires we have in the life we want now.

Your Power to Choose YOU this Valentine’s Day
2/13/2024
When we don’t see our power to choose, we make ourselves helpless. We believe that something or someone outside of us is responsible for creating the situations and circumstances we find ourselves in. But we always have the power to choose, and the most loving thing we can do for ourselves this Valentine’s Day - and every other day - is give ourselves permission to access more choice in each moment.

What to Do When You’re Feeling Trapped as a SAHM
1/30/2024
If you’re feeling trapped, then you’re feeling like you’re not able to CHOOSE in your motherhood - whether that’s what your day looks like or how you show up as a mom. Any time you MOVE, you’re accessing that choice, and any time to choose to move differently, you’re also opening yourself up to new ways of thinking, as well as new possibilities. Fear of change is often what keeps us feeling trapped but, as we explore in this episode, fear has all kinds of different flavors, and you get to widen your capacity towards it any time you want to.

Why Changing the Way You Move in Motherhood Will Change What’s Possible for You Alongside It
1/23/2024
When we change the way we move in our motherhood - the daily movement patterns and postures we repeat every day - we change the way we think about ourselves and what’s possible for us. This week’s episode explores how we get out of alignment once we become moms, as well as the easiest way to come back to our bodies and remember who we are.

How to Stop Trying to Control Things and Know That You’re OK
1/16/2024
Our thoughts are not facts. They come into our heads, tell us we need to control everything around us to stay safe, cause all sorts of commotion in our lives, and then either move out again or play on repeat. You don’t have to choose to listen to them and you don’t have to live your life by them. In this episode, I share a simple process to bring you out of your head and into your body, where you can sense and “know” that - in this moment - you are, in fact, ok.

Why It’s Time to Stop Focusing on Your Problems and What to Do Instead
1/2/2024
We focus on our problems and trying to come up with solutions for them because we think that taking the things that are “wrong” OUT of our lives will give us more space. In today’s episode we look at how adding IN more of the things that feel “right” to us in our bodies naturally creates more time and space for us as we allow ourselves to be fueled by joy and passion rather than by struggle and hustle.

Why Celebrating YOU Brings More Magic Than Any New Year’s Resolution Ever Will

We often set New Year’s Resolutions from a place of seeing all the ways we failed at the ones we set last year.
