I’m currently spending a lot of time supporting my 5.5 month old in learning how to sleep in his crib, and what I've noticed is sleep seems to be something that moms lack, and oftentimes first time or seasoned entrepreneurs lack as well. This thought is exactly what I want to talk about in today's episode – the overlaps between parenting and empathpreneurship. So many of my skill sets and the lessons I've learned over the past decade as an entrepreneur, have helped me being the older first time mama that I am. However, I recognize that there's so much to learn and work through and it can be incredibly overwhelming, but it’s not something you ever have to do alone. So, listen in to hear the most common overlaps and struggles along with some practical tips to help you manage both effectively, and hopefully get a little bit more sleep in the process!

Topics:

• How learning to be adaptable and lean into self-trust has saved Catherine the past few months and allowed to lead with her heart and listen to her intuition
• Focusing on managing yourself and your energy levels rather than trying to master “time management” and how Catherine has learned this from motherhood and especially podcasting
• Developing and innovating your own rulebook as a parent instead of trying to follow someone else’s to find more joy and creativity in parenthood
• Becoming a team player as an entrepreneur and a parent while learning to be vulnerable, ask for support, and improve openhearted communication
