As moms, we all know that life—whether at work or at home—can be unpredictable. One moment, everything’s going smoothly, and the next, you’re juggling deadlines, playdates, and a million little things in between. But what if I told you there’s a powerful tool that can help you navigate these twists and turns? Whether you're stepping into a new project, chasing a promotion, or simply trying to figure out what’s next after becoming a parent, this tool can make all the difference.
You won’t find this in your usual set of work KPIs or even on your to-do list. It’s something deeper, something personal, and it can guide you through both career challenges and the everyday ups and downs of parenting.
The Three Pillars
Let’s start with the first pillar. This is something that lights you up, that makes you feel excited about what you’re doing—even when things are tough. It’s your inner why that keeps you moving forward. Take a moment to ask yourself: What motivates me to take on this new career challenge or to show up as the best mom I can be? Identifying what truly inspires you is key to staying resilient.
Then, there’s the second pillar. This one is all about how deeply you’re connected to what you’re doing. It’s not just about showing up and ticking off boxes—it’s about feeling fully present and engaged, whether you’re leading a team meeting or spending time with your kids. When you’re connected to your work or to your family in a meaningful way, you’ll find that even the most challenging moments feel a bit easier to navigate.
Finally, we come to the last pillar—and this might surprise you. It’s often the one we forget about when life gets busy, but it’s actually one of the most powerful tools in your toolbox. It’s the ability to find joy and have fun. Yes, fun! Think about it: when you’re enjoying yourself, whether in your career or with your kids, everything just feels lighter, doesn’t it?
So, What’s the Tool?
If you haven’t guessed it yet, the key tool is these three internal markers: inspiration, engagement, and fun. When life hands you those lemons—whether it’s a tough project, a career shift, or the daily chaos of motherhood—tapping into what inspires you, keeps you engaged, and lets you have fun will help you get through it.
