EP 72: The Power of Yet - 3 Mindset Shifts for Personal Growth When You Feel Stuck

Your feeling of being stuck isn't the problem. Your inability to balance everything isn't the problem. Self-doubt when pursuing your dreams isn't the problem. The problem is that you haven't embraced the power of "yet" in your mindset.

In this episode, I'm sharing how I went from feeling defeated by unachieved goals...to finally transforming my personal growth journey through one tiny three-letter word. From reframing "can't" statements to celebrating micro-wins—I've built a system that creates space for growth amid real life.

And the best part? You can do this too.

I'm walking you through what adding "yet" to your vocabulary does for your brain, what micro-tasks can accomplish when you're feeling overwhelmed, and the exact mindset shifts that made this transformation possible—so you can achieve your ambitious mom life without feeling like a failure.

If you're ready to stop feeling defeated by unchecked boxes and unmet goals, hit play so you can achieve your ambitious mom life!
