135. Growth Mindset in Motherhood + Business: Showing Up As Your Best Self in Both

My best friend wrote a book about business and I couldn’t help but read it through the motherhood lens as well. So that’s what this episode is about: applying business principles to motherhood as a way for moms to find their balance between the two. We’ll talk about the principles of growth mindset in both our professional and personal lives. We’re besties, so this episode starts out super informal and has it’s off the cuff moments throughout, but we do dive into the nitty gritty and I can promise you’ll walk away with some useful insights on how to show up as your best self in both motherhood and business. Amanda has a section in her book where she talks about growth mindset. Finding joy in work and living the life you want to have. Finding what gives you life and joy. She lists the following elements of growth mindset that we’re going to talk about: 1. Reflection 2. Cultivating Your Purpose 3. Take on Challenges 4. Foster Grit 5. Write Your Goals 6. Check Your Attitude 7. Ask for Feedback 8. Stop Seeking Approval 9.
