Work Hard Mom Hard

How are you doing over there with this swirly energy going around with the virus? I know in times like these it can be challenging to release anxiety and fear over what might happen, but truth be told this is where you get to put all of those tools you've been learning by reading the books and listening to the podcasts and going to the events into practice. Or as I like to say, "this is where I get to practice what I preach!"

I was feeling called to share some tools with you to help you get grounded if you are starting to feel the anxiety bubble up. So here are 3 of my favorites to help myself get grounded (and you can use this for ANY TIME you start to feel anxiety). 

HIGHLIGHTS

1:00 - You have been building your tools for a time like this

4:27 - #1: Notice and disrupt

6:28 - #2: Turn off your devices and turn on to nature

9:06 - #3: Journal your thoughts and fears

In early 2014, after nearly a decade in the corporate world, Women& Inc founder Lindsay Roselle sought out a group of successful, supportive women to connect with as mentors to help her generate ideas and brainstorm solutions to challenges related to her small business. Realizing that few opportunities for that type of connection already existed outside of a personal network, Lindsay had the initial idea for what would later become Women& Inc. 

By Spring 2015, Lindsay had shared the idea with several other entrepreneurial women in Fort Collins who all expressed similar desires for connection, so the first event - Women& Whiskey - was planned for late March. Expecting 15-20 women to come, almost 90 showed up, and the organization was officially born. Since then, Women& Inc has hosted connection events every other month focused on bringing women together to learn more about each other, share advice and ideas, and get educated about craft spirits at Social.

In this episode of Work Hard Mom Hard, Lindsay and Kari share their top advice for new moms, a shocking statistic for women-owned businesses (that we can change), why women need to be in a room together, why you shouldn’t play it safe in your businesses, and much more. This episode is a lighthouse in the storm for all you business owners and moms. Fellow boy moms unite!

30:05 - Keeping it simple, but not safe

32:59 - Start with mastery of ONE thing

36:20 - The question to ask yourself every day
