When was the last time you felt genuinely excited about your future? In this special birthday week episode, we're breaking away from the heavier emotions we've been exploring to focus on something many busy moms have forgotten how to feel: anticipation and excitement for what's ahead.
If you've been going through the motions for so long that you can barely remember what lights you up, this episode is your permission slip to dream again. I understand that feeling of disconnection all too well—that moment when someone asks what you're looking forward to and your mind goes blank because you've been focused on everyone else's needs for so long.
✨ In this episode, you'll discover:
- How to reconnect with genuine excitement (even if it feels distant right now)
- A powerful journal prompt to channel messages from your future self
- Small, meaningful actions that align with the woman you're becoming
- How to identify and reclaim parts of yourself that got lost in the chaos of balancing it all
I guide you through four thoughtful prompts designed to help you spark joy and possibility, complete with examples for those who might feel so disconnected they're not sure where to begin.
Journal Prompts Included:
- When was the last time you felt a genuine sense of excitement about your future, and what sparked that feeling within you?
- If your future self (who has found inner peace and fulfillment) could send you a message about what she's most grateful for, what would she say?
- What small action could you take tomorrow that would align with the woman you're becoming rather than the patterns you've been trying to leave behind?
- If your birthday wish this year was to reclaim one aspect of yourself that's lost in the chaos of motherhood and career, what would you wish for?

This episode is perfect for the woman who's been so focused on managing everyone else's lives that she's forgotten to dream about her own. Give yourself these 5 minutes to remember who you are beyond your roles and responsibilities.
