A few months earlier, I had returned from maternity leave to my job as a Marketing Director at a Fortune 100 company and was feeling discouraged and overwhelmed.
Constantly working long hours at the office, then spending every last waking minute on parenting my 2-year-old son and infant daughter, then crashing for 4 hours of sleep... I felt like I was working as hard as I could but wasn't really succeeding at anything. I knew I had to find a way to break out of the cycle.
I wanted to continue my career, be the best mom I could and still have time for myself and my husband.
I also wanted to figure out how to better leverage my time, so that I could start a side business and live my lifelong dream of being an entrepreneur.
So, I did everything I thought I should to make these things happen.
By May 2017, I was working 60 hours a week, parenting 60 hours a week, and working on the side business 5 hours a week. I was so exhausted that I was worried about falling asleep at the wheel with my family in the car!
But no matter how many hours in the day I worked, I barely kept up with my work and kid responsibilities. I was being pulled in a million different directions and felt more and more stressed, frustrated and depleted.
I couldn't see a way out. I even started questioning my reasons for choosing to have a career and a family in the first place.
I decided enough was enough.
I took a few days off of work and slept half the time.
The other half, I looked at my life with completely fresh eyes.
Why was I really doing what I was doing? Why did it matter to me? Where exactly was I trying to go?
I stopped all of the compulsive professional mom "busyness" I'd been caught up in for years, and allowed myself time and space to actually feel into my life.
Then, by answering a few simple but powerful questions, I became crystal clear on what my unique value was, and the kind of lifestyle I wanted to create.
And when I did that, it was like entering a destination into a GPS.
I immediately saw laid out before my eyes the fastest, most effective path to drive my life exactly where I wanted it to go -- including all of the paths I definitely needed to avoid that would only slow me down!
The exact next steps I needed to take were laid out in unbelievable clarity, just like GPS directions to my dream lifestyle.
I’d finally discovered my Roots to Abundance Pathway.
I finally had a clear roadmap for precisely how to double my energy, find more time in my day, and be the present, patient parent and partner that I dreamed of. Starting right now.
When you start the Mama Sleep System, you'll begin a 10-week, 1:1 coaching program to help you get the energy you need to live the life of your dreams. You can expect to invest about 2 hours per week into the program.
Two hours per week?! You’re crazy busy!! Don’t worry, you can do it without overwhelm! If you carve out the time the very first week, I guarantee that you’ll learn tools to find at least those two hours every week (and probably a whole lot more!) If you don’t, I will give you your money back.
Each week, you’ll have 1 hour of high-impact, virtual coaching calls with me and about1 hour of self-discovery work:
1) A 30-minute coaching call at the beginning of the week to set goals.
2) About 1 hour of self-discovery exercises (with unlimited email support so you can’t get stuck!)
3) Another 30-minute call at the end of the week to celebrate your progress and reflect on challenges.
Here's an overview of the Mama Sleep System:
Module 1: Root
Find at least 2 hours (or a whole lot more) every week with the best productivity secrets from billionaires like Warren Buffet and Oprah, multi-million entrepreneurs and Fortune 100 companies. In fact, I guarantee you'll find 2+ hours the very first week or your money back. The time savings alone will pay for the program 2x!
Optimize your environment for peak energy. Set up your own unique energy routine to ensure deep, restful sleep. Understand which relationships, projects and emotions sap your energy and put in place a plan to reclaim it!
If your kids are part of why you're not getting enough sleep, you'll learn tools to help kids from 6 months-5 years get their rest so you can, too!
Module 2: Grow
Connect with your deepest values so that you can maximize the time you spend on what's most important to you.
Nourish what you want and lose what you don't by giving your attention only to what's most precious to you.
Take the Supermom cloak off! Discover new sources of support that are eagerly waiting to help you and gracefully accept their assistance. Extend your network to support all aspects of your life.
Module 3: Abundance
Be the best version of YOU with the mental clarity, emotional resilience and physical vitality from your increased energy!
Build momentum with your new energy habits so that you can't slide back into your old patterns.
Shift your focus from short-term to long-term and confidently adapt your energy system as your needs and values change.
I'm so certain that you will find the 2 hours per week needed to complete the program from the very first week that I will refund your money if you finish the exercises and do not discover at least 2 hours.
I want to make this no-risk for you. In addition to the “Find 2 Hours your First Week” Guarantee, I'm offering a 30-Day Program Satisfaction Guarantee. If for any reason you're not happy with the progress you're making, I will give you your money back anytime through the end of the first 30 days.
