À propos de ce contenu audio

 Welcome. If you're a woman who has a sense there's more out there for you in your life, I've got you. You're in the right place. I'm Whitney Baker, host of Electric Ideas. Somewhere along the line with work and kids, life carried on, but I lost track of my truth. I felt like something was missing. Like my energy was splintered and I was trapped reacting to a flurry of outside demands. I'm on a reflective journey and that's what this podcast is about. We talk about ideas, practices, and habits that help women get back to their heart center and live more fulfilling lives. Each week, I interview a woman who is lighting her own path. Before our conversation ends, we'll share a reflective question for you to ponder, chat with your gal pals about, or even journal about if you're so inclined. I started this podcast because I know when women step into their fullest selves, the whole world benefits. Sometimes all we need is a jolt, a laugh, a fresh idea…an aha moment that connects us back to ourselves and our buried truths. This my friends, is what I call an Electric Idea.

      174. Mindfulness Practices Overwhelmed Moms Can Use in Minutes
      Jan 22 2026
      Have you ever looked up from your day and realized you've been moving on autopilot, rushing from one demand to the next without fully landing anywhere? In this mini jolt episode of Electric Ideas, Whitney offers a grounded, thoughtful conversation for mothers who want to feel more present and more connected in the middle of real life. Whitney explores why modern motherhood can feel so fragmented, from constant digital interruption to the unrelenting mental and emotional load many women carry. She reflects on how chronic overstimulation pulls us into urgency and reactivity, even when our deepest intention is to show up with care, steadiness, and joy. She then shares simple mindfulness tools that can be used in minutes and woven into everyday moments. These include brief check-ins with the body and breath, gentle awareness practices, and walking with intention, all designed to support presence without adding another task to your day. This episode is an invitation to relate to motherhood with more awareness and self-trust, to slow down without falling behind, and to bring more choice into how you move through your days. If you are craving a steadier inner pace and a more connected way of living, this mini jolt meets you right where you are. Here's what you can look forward to in this episode: Why many moms crave presence but feel constantly pulled, distracted, and fragmented How mindfulness can help moms reconnect without adding another thing to the to-do list The distinction between meditation and mindfulness and why both matter Why mindfulness isn't about fixing yourself, but about noticing without judgment Two accessible mindfulness practices moms can use immediately: Reflection question to ponder:  Where in my days can I build in intentional pauses?

    • 173. Why Motherhood Feels So Triggering and What Your Inner Child Has to Do With It with Lavinia Brown

      173. Why Motherhood Feels So Triggering and What Your Inner Child Has to Do With It with Lavinia Brown
      Jan 15 2026
      Register today for The FREE Busy Working Mom's Blueprint Summit** - January 19th-26th** Some of the hardest moments in motherhood aren't about our children at all. They're about parts of us that never felt fully safe, seen, or supported, and get awakened by the intensity of caregiving. In this episode of Electric Ideas, Whitney sits down with inner child healing expert Lavinia Brown to explore why motherhood can stir up so much guilt, overwhelm, and reactivity, and why those responses often have roots far deeper than the present moment. What looks like irritation over a spilled drink or a standoff about screen time may actually reflect an old emotional pattern surfacing in a nervous system that's already stretched thin. Together, Whitney and Lavinia examine how unhealed parts of ourselves can quietly shape our parenting, why adding more strategies without tending to our inner world often keeps us stuck in the same cycles, and what it means to meet ourselves with compassion instead of defaulting to self-criticism. They unpack how many of the behaviors that drain mothers today were once effective survival strategies in childhood, and how becoming a parent can reactivate them if we're not aware. Lavinia explains why you don't need a single, obvious trauma for inner child work to matter, how triggers often signal unmet needs or unprocessed experiences, and why moments of rupture with our children don't define us. What matters most is repair: honest, regulated repair that teaches children big feelings don't break relationships and that connection can be restored. The conversation also names the double standard many mothers carry around anger and emotional expression, explores why pushback from children isn't inherently a problem to fix, and offers grounded guidance for caring for yourself after a moment you wish had gone differently. It's a conversation about breaking cycles, nervous system awareness, and reclaiming motherhood as a space for growth rather than constant self-judgment. Press play if you're ready to stop blaming yourself for the hard moments and start understanding what they're really pointing to. In this episode, we explore: How inner child work shapes the way we show up as mothers Why you don't need a capital T trauma for this work to be meaningful Seeing our reactions as information rather than personal failure What to do after you react in a way you regret How to have a repair conversation that builds trust instead of shame The double standard around anger for moms versus dads Why pushback and defiance from kids can actually be healthy Reflection question to ponder: How old is the part of me that's feeling this way?

      Jan 8 2026
      Register today for The FREE Busy Working Mom's Blueprint Summit - January 19th-26th Returning to work after having kids is a huge transition, one that can be much harder than one may think. In this episode, Whitney connects with Rebecca Olson, a coach for working moms, to talk about the emotional toll so many women experience when returning to work after motherhood. What once felt meaningful can suddenly feel misaligned, and that identity shift can leave even the most driven women questioning themselves. Rebecca shares her own experience navigating this season and what she's learned from supporting countless working moms through the same transition. Together, they unpack what Rebecca calls the "motherhood identity crisis" and the failure stories so many women silently carry. The belief that you are falling short at work and at home, that balance is impossible, or that you are somehow doing it wrong. Rebecca explains why these thoughts are so common, how cultural expectations reinforce them, and how to start loosening their grip. This conversation helps normalize the struggle while also offering a way forward that is rooted in clarity, self-trust, and redefining success on your own terms. Rebecca also shares practical tools to help moms reclaim their time and energy, including how to set real boundaries around work and home, and her simple daily kickstart mindset practice. If you are navigating the return to work and craving more confidence, clarity, and ease, this episode will help you feel less alone and more grounded. Tune in and listen now. Here's what you can look forward to in this episode: Navigating being a new mom and going back to work The common "failure story" women tell themselves and how our brains focus on perceived shortcomings How to recognize and reframe the belief that work and family are in conflict Strategies for feeling empowered at work without immediately changing jobs How Rebecca's definition of success has shifted Advice on drawing clear boundaries around work hours and real-life examples A daily morning mindset practice to cultivate empowering beliefs and set the tone for the day Reflection question to ponder: How do I know I'm already good enough?
