The Work-Life Balance Myth (And What Moms Actually Need)

Send us Fan MailWe've been told that if we could just find better work-life balance, we'd finally feel less overwhelmed, less guilty, and more present. But what if balance isn't the goal at all?In this episode, Jess is joined by Work-Life Harmony Coach & Strategist Amy Pierre-Russo for an honest conversation about why so many working moms feel like they're constantly falling short—and how the traditional idea of work-life balance often creates more pressure than peace.Together, they explore where mom guilt really comes from, why trying to control everything can leave us feeling even more overwhelmed, and how shifting from compartmentalizing our lives to integrating them can create more honesty, support, and ease.If you've ever felt like you're succeeding at work while failing at home—or finally present with your family but falling behind professionally—this conversation will remind you that the problem isn't you. It may just be the model you've been trying to follow.Connect with Amy:🌿 Hustle to Harmony: https://www.coachingwamy.com/Amy's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachingw_amy/Before you goIf this episode met you somewhere real, follow The Nurture Network so the next one finds you too.Reviews are how other mothers find this work.
