233. Mindset Reset: Working Moms, You Won’t Look Back and Wish You Answered More Emails

Hi Mamas,

Today’s episode is a gentle but powerful reset—especially if you’ve ever told yourself, “I’ll just check one more thing…” before logging off.

Whether you're about to start your PTO, prepping for a big trip like our Ireland adventure, or just trying to enjoy a quiet weekend with your family … this mindset shift is exactly what your working mama heart needs:

💭 “You will never look back and wish you spent more time answering emails.”

In today’s Monday Mindset episode, I’m sharing:

✔️ Why being constantly available doesn’t make you irreplaceable ✔️ The real cost of always staying “on”… exhaustion, resentment, and missing the magic ✔️ How to anchor yourself in the memories that actually matter ✔️ Why it’s okay to unplug fully… and how I’m doing that for my own once-in-a-lifetime trip ✔️ A 3-step mindset challenge to help you log off and protect your peace

Whether you're heading across the world or just across town, your time off matters. You deserve to be present… not buried in your inbox under the beach umbrella.

💛 This Week’s Mindset Challenge:

✅ Practice logging off with intention. Block time on your calendar—even if it’s just two hours—to be fully disconnected from work.

✅ Choose presence over productivity. Put the laptop away. Skip the “quick reply.” Be all in for bedtime stories, messy board games, or whatever joy the day brings.

✅ Anchor yourself in a better memory. When the itch to check in hits, pause and ask: What moment might I miss if I answer this email instead?
