"What energy is common in the Capricorn season?" The beginning of the new year is often known for new beginnings, resolutions & journeys. It is also known for a cold weather season in many places.

In this episode, I am speaking from personal experience as a Capricorn, enjoying and embracing my morning rituals. I am saying goodbye to the past year when I turned 50. My perspective as a mother of three teenagers and the differences between the time off of school verses the structure when the holiday break is over.

Integrity to pursue your desires and not give up is very important if you don't want to continue to experience the same year as before. The muscle must get stronger. Are you noticing the joyful moments throughout each day?

Intention behind your focus, actions and choices determines the outcome. My "word of the year" last year was Wisdom. I am grateful for that, because it included unforeseen really difficult events the entire year that we will talk more about in future episodes.

This year it is Joy, with Trust as the intention behind it. For most moms, especially those running a business or serving others in addition to running their household and tending to their families, it may be easier to respond to whoever is calling on them at that moment. Can you relate?

This is where building a strong foundation with structure and the ability to choose to pause in difficult moments can be so helpful. To be able to have a calm disposition rather than react to everything and everyone before finishing what you actually are doing at the moment.

Can you choose to be grateful for all the blessings that God has given us, despite the hardships? I celebrated my January birthday in fall with some of my closest girlfriends. We had deep conversation being ourselves. Imagine how you can celebrate life's gifts in an authentic way that feels good to you in the season you're in.

In this Episode:

Discipline and structure as common energy in the Capricorn season

Integrity to avoid abandoning yourself

Building a strong foundation

Noticing the joyful moments daily

Wisdom to pause and make wise decisions

Intention behind your "word of the year"

"I will relax after everything and everyone else is taken care of." This narrative and expectation is tired. If we miss moments, they are gone. The misunderstood idea that mother's can't enjoy their individual journey in each of their multiple roles, especially those that are running a business or serving others in their business roles with unending tasks, often creates a cycle of overwhelm. Waiting to experience joy and fulfillment is not accepting we can choose to integrate. Time is an asset that we can't control. This moment is always now.

In this episode we will start the conversation that there is another choice. Mothers don't have to give until they are depleted. We aren't all created with the same desires. Our lives reflect our choices. The negative ripple effect of expectation that there is only one way to experience what we desire in our daily lives goes beyond the mother's well-being, affecting their children, relationships, work and much more.

If you have ever felt pressure to perform, while feeling unfulfilled, this episode is for you. Have you ever wondered if there is actually another option or noticed someone else being an example of what is possible, but you're not sure where to start?

I will share the beginning of my personal journey from a soul desire as a little girl to become a mother to struggles, questioning the industry standards as a hairstylist, infertility and choosing to reset with an overflowing cup.

In This Episode:

You can enjoy your individual desires and journey as a mother without depleting yourself

Negative ripple effect of the tired expectation of waiting to experience joy and fulfillment

Join me in this change from overwhelm to overflow by choosing to start with something small, even 5 minutes to reset.🫶

Host Sarah Swift, wife, mother of three teenagers, entrepreneur, and hairstylist for over three decades, wants to help overwhelmed and stressed moms end the feeling of always missing out. The feeling that they have to choose work or family, well-being or burnout, business roles or an authentic lifestyle of ease. Guiding with the personal experience of wisdom after decades of repeating these negative cycles and including a few traumatic life events, lead her to her own transformation with spiritual faith along the journey.

The decision to choose now as the time to experience joy and fulfillment by integrating, instead of waiting is very difficult, especially for many mothers serving in multiple roles as business owners and service providers. The cycle of depletion has a negative ripple affect on these mamas, their families, work experience and much more.

Sarah's ultimate soul's desire to become a mother was an unexpected challenge. She experienced health issues that included her chemical sensitivities in the traditional salon environment, infertility and the heartache of multiple miscarriages. Finally when she became a mother she missed so much time with her three children who are now teenagers, especially after starting a new business during the recession while her husband was laid off.

This podcast includes resilience and strong faith with the belief that how we experience time is very important. We can't change what already happened, but we can choose differently now in each moment. Her mindset shift includes a holistic lifestyle of the many choices and approaches to physical and mental challenges available. The courage to try new things, even when it's not the social or industry norm. We are all here with uniqueness meant for our own soul's purpose guided by an inner-knowing.

If you can relate to the fear of missing out with your children and putting your needs last, you don't have to feel alone anymore. Join the community of like-hearted mothers in the T.I.M.E. community focused on overall well-being and giving from an overflowing cup. The five foundational elements of the course, The Integrative Mother Experience is a focus of this podcast. There will be a combination of stories and guest interviews to guide, uplift, inspire and help create more community of support meant for mama's like you.
