Time is our most precious resource, and as moms, knowing how to make the most of it can make all the difference.

In this episode, Fran Hauser—bestselling author, keynote speaker, and book coach—shares how we can reclaim our time and focus on what truly matters. Fran opens up about her career shift from media executive to entrepreneur, a decision fueled by her desire for more flexibility and family time. She also highlights the power of building the right team to turn big dreams into reality.

Fran gives us a first look at her upcoming book, Twenty Minutes Is the New Hour, offering practical, actionable time management tips to help moms make the most of their limited time.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The importance of building the right support team: By finding the right people to support you, you free yourself to focus on what truly moves the needle in your career and family life.
• Making time for what truly matters: Quality matters more than quantity when it comes to being present for your family, career, and yourself. Short, focused bursts of time can have a greater impact than long, distracted hours.
• Let go of perfectionism and people-pleasing: Many moms feel the need to say “yes” to everything. Learning to say “no” without guilt is essential for maintaining focus and alignment with your personal and professional goals.
