41. Taking Time For You with Erin Woodruff

Worthy Mother Podcast

Apr 18 2023 • 42 mins

On this episode, I sat down with Life Coach and fellow podcast host Erin Woodruff for a conversation all about the value in taking time for yourself as a mother. We get into how to prioritize time for you, and what to actually do with that time once you make it happen. If you've been feeling discouraged in motherhood, or just need a little pep talk on why prioritizing yourself matters for you AND your family, you definitely want to tune into this!

In this episode, Erin and I talk about:

  • Why we need to take time for ourselves
  • What to do with the time you make for you
  • How to get into touch with what you actually want for your life
  • Losing your identity in motherhood
  • Setting baseline minimums when it comes to self care time


Erin also shares three really powerful questions to help you tune into what you want:
What did I want to be when I grew up?

What did I like doing when I was a little girl?

What do you secretly want now? What do you really really really really really want?
