In these recent months, working moms have increased their workloads at home causing them to work double overtime. And, with those additional tasks, burnout and overwhelm are present, causing us to lack patience with our loved ones, not feel well, and a host of other emotions. But, it is possible to overcome.
In today's episode, Gillian Behnke shares her personal story of overcoming the overwhelm of juggling motherhood and career, and she breaks down the method that allowed her to do so - The Fill Your Bucket Method. This method teaches moms how to create a solid health foundation, set personal priorities and establish boundaries. She believes that moms need to fill their own buckets first so they are able to pour into others. Here are a few highlights of what she shares with us today:
we must drink water (hydrate ourselves)
we must move our bodies (in whatever way we can)
we must identify our values
we must establish a foundation that allows us to manage
When we begin to fill ourselves up, it's easier to pour into others.
As a busy mom of two, Gillian cares deeply about helping other moms feel better both mentally and physically. She believes that motherhood does not equal with exhaustion, and that it is possible to thrive mentally, emotionally, physically and professionally. Gillian is the founder of Mom Camp, a media and events company that empowers moms to live their best lives. She is also the host of the Mom Camp: Around the Campfire podcast.
