Welcome to my first solo episode of 2025! After 140 episodes of talking with incredible women about their days, I’m turning the mic on myself to share what my life looks like right now as a working mom of two in the Boston area.
In this quick check-in episode, I’m opening up about how my days have shifted over the past year, what’s working, and what I’m still figuring out. From waking up at 6:45 (or 6:00 on workout days) to bedtime snuggles at 7:30, I’m walking you through the honest reality of balancing full-time work in healthcare project management, hosting this podcast, traveling 1-2 times a month, and trying to find humor in the heavy moments.
What I Cover:
Why I describe my days as full, organized, and funny
My Tuesday/Thursday workout routine (and why I have to do it first thing or it won’t happen)
The morning struggle with two non-morning-person kids
How my husband has stepped up with breakfast and mornings (a big change from past episodes!)
My workday: 9am-5:15pm with too many meetings and not enough lunch breaks
High-low-buffalo at dinner (something I learned from podcast guests!)
The Nintendo Switch debate and how we’re handling it as a family toy
Traveling 1-2 times a month for work (and the surprising truth about not hating it)
Our laundry outsourcing situation and the transition with our home assistant
Why I’m not a date night person but love in-home date nights
Screen time boundaries, kids’ chores, and teaching my 4-year-old to load the dishwasher
Using The Bright Method to completely transform my calendar
How I’m using AI for the podcast and work (Superhuman, Descript, Notion, Claude)
The bedtime routine that fills my cup: charging up my kids and hearing “love you mommy night night”
Dropping the ball on work travel but trying not to miss anything for my kids
