How to Overcome Mom Guilt and Start Making Decisions with Clear Confidence

from Millennial Mom Movement · host Amanda Rush Holmes

In this episode, we're chatting about a topic I’m super passionate about: the mental load of mom guilt!  We'll take a closer look at how to overcome it, so you can make decisions with confidence. 🙌 From the challenges after having my first son to navigating the guilt of balancing work and family in my business journey, I’m sharing the story I used to tell myself – one that needed reframing. We’ll also dive into the toolbox my coach gave me for kicking that mom guilt to the curb, by learning how to set clear boundaries that align with your values. I share how I found structure, a playbook, and liberation from guilt, allowing space for self-investment. If you're grappling with mom guilt, know that you're not alone. We've all been there! 🫶Listen to the episode and then join the conversation over on Instagram @amandrushholmes, where we can chat mom to mom! LET’S CONNECT:INSTAGRAM: @amandarushholmesTHREADS: @amandarushholmesTIKTOK: @amandarushholmesRESOURCES: LEARN FROM AMANDA: fulltimeva.comON THE BLOG: thefulltimeva.com/blogTHE MILLENNIAL MOM DIGITAL SHOP: thefulltimeva.com/shopWORK WITH THE VIRTUAL ASSISTANT STUDIO: thevirtualassistantstudio.com/workwithusFREEBIES:**UNLOCK YOUR VA SUPERPOWERS AND FIND YOU IDEAL VA ROLE**Take our VA Superpower Quiz**GRAB YOUR FREE BONUS FOR WATCHING**How to Go from Cubicle to Coach-Your Roadmap to being a virtual assistant in 90 days or less!**BECOME A PROFITABLE VIRTUAL ASSISTANT**Get your hands on my 5 must-have tools for your business, delivered straight to your inbox! LEAVE A REVIEW:Did you enjoy today's episode?
