In this deeply honest and empowering episode of Mommy is Thriving, host Sami Galbo sits down with Courtney Cecil, founder of The Working Moms Movement, for a conversation that every modern mom needs to hear.

Courtney shares how she helps women move from stretched-thin and stuck in survival mode to clear, calm, and in control, without doing it all alone. From redefining executive function to building systems at home that mirror the clarity we crave at work, this episode explores the real reasons moms feel so overwhelmed, and how to start changing the script.

We talk about:

  • How to stop doing everything yourself (and still get it done)
  • The surprising reason so many moms don’t use personal calendars
  • Generational expectations, grief, and the legacy we’re building
  • Why treating your home like your workplace can actually bring peace
