Click Here to go to Episode 55's BLOG POST. How Do YOU Measure MOM SUCCESS?  Goodbye COMPARISON & PERFECTION!
Have you clearly identified your family values? Until you do, you are likely to use the wrong measurement for gauging how you’re doing as mom, and how well your kids are growing toward a meaningful life.
Too often COMPARISON or PERFECTION sneaks in as mom's measuring stick for Mom Success. An INTENTIONAL mom  TAKES THE TIME TO DETERMINE HER TOP VALUES and then those VALUES SHAPE her decisions, actions, words, goals, schedule, and perspective.
It’s not wrong to evaluate how you're doing in motherhood.  In fact, I find it beneficial IF I evaluate how I'm doing based on a pre-determined CLEAR target of what I'm aiming for in motherhood. 

📌Stop COMPARING yourself to other moms and your kids to other kids. 📌Stop aiming for PERFECTION and holding off on happiness until you've achieved perfection. 📌Identify Your Family Values  - I share mine in this episode #55 📌Determine HOW your Family Values are going to be incorporated into your life

Parenting without having CLEARLY ESTABLISHED VALUES is like shooting arrows while blindfolded- you're not going to reach the target AND someone is likely to get hurt.
Taking off the blindfold allows your eyes to be fixed on the target. 

In episode 55,"Measuring Mom Success! Goodbye COMPARISON & PERFECTION,"  we talk about THE TARGET.  I share my values with you and what that looks like in my family.

Also in Episode 55, I spend the last ten minutes talking about the next step of My Journey Back to Health, specifically talking about Adrenal Fatigue and ways I'm working to heal my adrenals, including some practical steps for improvement.
