Stop Surviving (Part 4): From Self-Doubt to Steady Confidence — Ranjita’s Story

Today, I’m joined by the incredible Ranjita - a powerhouse working mom of three, tax professional, and former Ambitious and Balanced client. This one’s emotional, inspiring, and real. Ranjita shares how grief, burnout, and relentless self-doubt pushed her into survival mode, and how she found her way back to joy, clarity, and confidence. We talk about what it really means to shift the voice in your head, break generational patterns, and reclaim balance in a way that feels deeply personal. You’ll hear the raw truth about what changed when she stopped saying yes to everything and started saying yes to herself. I promise, you’ll leave this episode both teary-eyed and motivated.

Freedom from Stuckness: Do the Thing You’re Avoiding

In this week's episode of the podcast, I'm getting personal and talking about a mindset trap I know so many working moms fall into: feeling stuck—and doing nothing about it. I share my own experience of being caught in a “not enough” loop, waking up at 3am with anxiety, knowing exactly what to do to get out of it, but still... not doing it. This episode isn’t about learning something new—it’s about finally using what you already know. If you’ve been spinning your wheels, overwhelmed and telling yourself “this is just a season,” this episode will hit home—and help you break the cycle. 

How a Weekly Evaluation Can Transform Your Work-Life Balance

How a Weekly Evaluation Can Transform Your Work-Life Balance

Today, I’m talking about one of the most powerful tools working moms overlook - evaluation. Think of it as a weekly report card for your life. I share the simple 3-question process I use to regularly check in on how aligned I am with my goals and how I help clients do the same to stay grounded, confident, and in control. This practice is a game-changer - especially if you’re tired of letting weeks fly by on autopilot. We’re halfway through the year, let’s use this moment to reset, reflect, and re-align. Your future self will thank you.
