About this listen

Have you ever noticed how often “hurry up” slips out of your mouth—at your kids, at yourself, at your life? Today’s episode is a gentle but honest look at how hurry sneaks in and quietly steals our peace.

In this episode…
We’re talking about the internal rush so many ambitious moms carry and how it shapes our homes, our work, and our relationships. This episode is about recognizing hurry as a heart posture—not a time problem—and learning how to shift your pace without giving up your ambition.

In this episode, we talk about:

  • How “hurry up” became a signal something deeper was going on
  • Why urgency often comes from internal pressure, not real emergencies
  • The impact a hurried pace has on our kids, our marriages, and ourselves
  • How hurry teaches subtle messages about worth, productivity, and presence
  • Why ambition isn’t the problem—but unexamined hurry can sabotage it
  • Small, practical shifts to slow the tone of your days
  • Building buffer and margin instead of stacking everything back-to-back
  • Regulating yourself before trying to regulate your kids
  • Asking better questions in business so everything doesn’t feel urgent
  • Creating a life and business that don’t require rush as fuel

This episode is for you if…

  • You feel constantly rushed even when nothing is truly urgent
  • You’re tired of carrying pressure in your body and mind
  • You want to be present with your kids without giving up your goals
  • Your nervous system feels like it never gets to exhale
  • You’re craving a slower, more humane pace for motherhood and business

Friend, a meaningful life—and a meaningful business—aren’t built in a rush. Slowing down isn’t failure. It’s alignment.
