73. Creating "Your Ideal Mom Life" with Nikki Oden

Lyss Morton — Fri, 26 May 2023 05:30:00 -0400

Nikki Oden is a lawyer and mom mentor who helps working moms battle burnout by teaching them how to own their days and crush their goals—without the mom guilt. After walking away from a lucrative career as a commercial litigator for a prestigious, international law firm to become a stay-at-home mom, Nikki learned firsthand how easily a woman can completely lose herself in motherhood. Realizing that she needed something that was hers outside of being “Mommy” and “wife,” Nikki started a home- based business . . . and quickly experienced what it means to live in survival mode.

Eventually, through a lot of trial and improvement, she figured out how to harmonize what she wants as an ambitious woman with who she wants to be as a mother and is passionate about teaching other working moms how to do the same. Her mission is to help those moms love their mom lives (and themselves) a little more.

Nikki is the founder of Your Ideal Mom Life, host of the Love Your Mom Life podcast, and author of But Definitely Wear Mascara. Her work has been featured in The Boston Globe, TODAY Parents, CafeMom, KidSpot, Clean Plates and Authority Magazine.

In this episode, my conversation with Nikki Oden, we talk about

How her business "Your Ideal Mom Life" was born
Time Mismanagement
Systems that helped Nikki get off "the hot mess express"
How filling your own cup overfills into other areas and relationships of your life

What Happens When You Outgrow Your Friend Groups?

Lyss Morton — Mon, 26 Dec 2022 05:30:00 -0400

Life is short, but it sure gets complicated. The seasons of life seem to flash by, and things can drastically change without warning. Whether you plan it or not, you can move from place to place, have life-changing experiences, realize something big about yourself, and hit milestones like marriage and kids. Each of these things brings new people into your life, but it can also push old ones out. Outgrowing your friend group is a difficult thing to realize, but once you do, it forces you to make a decision: embrace change or get stuck in the past.

Larry and I have had tons of huge changes to our lives in just the past few years, so we completely understand what it means to suddenly be on a different page than the people we know. We got married and had kids faster than our friends, and that posed some major challenges. Of course, we still keep in touch, but we have to be realistic, too. We have priorities and limitations that others don’t, and it was time to find other people who could relate.

THERE ARE FRIENDS FOR EVERY SEASON

You’ve likely already realized that you turn to specific people for different things. If you prioritize exercise or self-care, you likely have that one friend who you always text first for a gym visit or spa day. You most likely also have that friend that’s more like family, who comes to watch your kids or offers a helping hand. You could also have friends you only see at school or at work. So why is it so hard to believe that you could have different friends for different times in your life, too?

Graduating high school and college likely meant you moved on and never spoke to those classmates or roommates again. So when you get married and have kids, you’ll need to accept that unmarried, non-parent friends might not understand where you’re at in your life and why you make the decisions you do. You might not be able to talk to them anymore about your struggles and emotions, and they might not understand how they can help you. It’s nobody’s fault, it’s just a fact of life.

Of course, it’s totally okay to keep people in your life that might not understand you and your situation, but still bring joy to your day and respect you!

FINDING NEW CIRCLES

The important thing to remember is that finding true happiness is finding a community of people who are similar in situation to you and who are achieving what you’d like to achieve. Growing and finding happiness is about setting your sights high and surrounding yourself with people who will encourage and support you in your goals. If this means you have to “pay for friends,” do it. By that, I mean take part in mastermind groups, buy courses, attend dinners, go to events — anything that will put you in environments that relate to your interests and vision for your life so you can meet new people with similar interests.

ACCEPTING ENDS AND NEW BEGINNINGS

Intentionally putting yourself into new circles is not to say that previous friends weren’t or aren’t worthy of you now. All relationships serve a purpose in your life: maybe you learned something from them or they helped you through a difficult time. Even if that person was only in your life for a short time, their value at the time and going forward could be monumental, and that’s important to cherish just the same.

If you’re sad about leaving friends behind, you don’t have to. I’m a strong believer in reaching out to people with whom you had great relationships in the past just to say “Hi!” and catch up. Thoughtfulness like this can re-spark a relationship, and you might find that they’ve also changed and staying in touch could be more beneficial now than it was before.

At the same time, if a relationship comes to an end, it’s important to accept that gracefully. Appreciate the memories and lessons learned, and think about how you can pay that forward.

DO ALL THAT YOU DO FOR THE GOOD OF YOU!

If you were looking for permission to say goodbye today to someone who is negatively impacting your life, here’s your permission. It’s okay to outgrow people who aren’t moving in the same direction or at the same speed as you. It’s okay to break away when someone not only doesn’t understand you anymore but disrespects how you’ve changed and your new priorities. Only you know what’s best for yourself and your life, especially if it also impacts your spouse and your family’s future.

If it’s time to find new circles, we’d love to talk. Larry and I are always looking to meet new people who are family-oriented and want to break free of limiting mindsets by building entrepreneurial empires. Go on a double date with us!

11:52 - My strength is speaking and I get tangled in that email list. So knowing the difference, knowing this, knowing what your emit gifts are and upleveling those gifts and alignment with your business vision.

How to Deal With Working Mom Guilt

Lyss Morton — Mon, 12 Dec 2022 05:30:00 -0400

The typical modern woman works, and I see so many moms strain under the weight of taking on both their career and homemaking – myself included. When we’re at home with our kids, we’re thinking of work; when we’re at work, we’re missing our kids. This struggle to be fully present with our families while still working towards our goals and dreams results in one major downer: working mom guilt.

So what gives? What can we do to give our kids our full attention without compromising what it means to be ourselves, truly, as individuals with a vision for success?

FIND YOUR CENTER

If you’ve got a career or business, you’ve got a fire inside of you that drove you to this moment. At some point, there was a flame that motivated you to get out of bed and start building your dream. Maybe you were even just driven by the desire to make money, and that’s totally valid.

If you’re now tired, burned out, and going through the motions, you’ve most likely lost sight of that first spark. Whatever passion you had seems to have faded away, and now you’re working just to work. Losing this passion is exactly what can make working mom guilt so heavy.

You need to find your “why” and center yourself. Otherwise, what’s the point of all these lost hours with your kids?

TURN YOUR MISSION INTO A MANTRA

Once you pinpoint your “why,” turn it into your mantra. This passion you have is a part of who you are, and you deserve every ounce of it. Having kids doesn’t make you less yourself, so there’s no reason to give up your vision and all that hard work before motherhood.

Remind yourself throughout the day why you’re doing what you do. Write it in lipstick on the mirror if you have to. Write yourself notes to find during your routine. Love your mission as if it’s part of you, because it is!

BE INTENTIONAL AND PRESENT WITH YOUR KIDS

Making your mission your mantra and loving yourself properly will not be enough to stave off working mom guilt. You’ll still be feeling like you aren’t giving your kids enough. To be perfectly honest – and I know you know this deep down – you’ll never feel like you can give your kids enough, even if you’re with them around the clock. That’s just being a mom!

You might not be able to give your kids everything, but you can make the most of the time you have. Even just a few moments of deeply intentional quality time with them can make a whole world of difference. Put down the phone, turn off distractions, make eye contact, connect with them.

MAKE MEMORIES DURING QUALITY TIME

Working moms, I totally understand – once you’ve punched out for the day, you haven’t got a lot of energy left for anything but sleep. And then there’s still all the things you couldn’t get done while you were working like laundry, groceries, and making dinner. At the same time, you know that by not being fully present when you get home, those few hours you do have with your kids just aren’t what they should be.

I urge you to turn quality time into memories. Change up the routine and make every day special. Invite them to participate in things you can’t put off like chores and errands so that even mundane activities turn into precious quality time.

Try a new recipe and let them help mix or pour. Make a game out of sorting and folding laundry. And if all the chores are done, go on adventures – no matter how small – to discover new places, things to do, and just bond.

CONQUER LIMITING MINDSETS

At the end of the day, working mom guilt is truly fueled by limiting mindsets. Larry and I talk all the time about how we hold beliefs that keep us from living out our full potential and reaching our goals.

If you hold untrue beliefs about money, such as a Scarcity Mindset, you might be overworking yourself because you’re caught in a cycle of earning and spending. Because of this cycle, you feel like you’re wasting tons of hours working without really getting anywhere, and you’re losing those precious hours with your kids.

When you can identify these mindsets and crush them, you can open up a whole new world of found time and kick that working mom guilt for good.

LET’S TACKLE WORKING MOM GUILT TOGETHER!

If anything I’ve said today has rung true for you and you’re interested in learning more, such as about buying more time and embracing your passions to become fully yourself, please come on this journey with us!

Check out my Making Mommy Moves Show, where I tackle all of this to help fellow working moms reach their full potential and change their lives for good.

You can also learn more about me by reading my blog: My Vision for Moms Everywhere.

Keeping Your Marriage Alive After Kids: 101

Lyss Morton — Mon, 05 Dec 2022 05:30:00 -0400

There isn’t a single easy part about raising babies and juggling your whole life at the same time. Life gets chaotic and messy really quickly when you’re in charge of more lives than just your own. When the dust settles, I know I’ve found myself wondering where I can still fit in my relationship with my husband – so I’m sure you feel the same. Keeping your marriage alive after kids is a huge battle, and many couples don’t take up the sword.

We’ve talked about working mom guilt; that concept revolves around not spending enough time with your kids. But what about married-after-kids guilt? What can we do to keep our marriage alive (or revive it, if it’s gone astray) even when the kids and the errands take up all of our time, energy, and emotional capacity?

SET ASIDE TIME DAILY FOR GENUINE CONVERSATION

We talk a lot on my podcasts – the Making Mommy Moves Show and The Power Couple Show – about keeping your relationship open for honest and real conversations. Staying transparent in every part of your life, whether that’s your goals, dreams, finances, burdens, and more is so important to a healthy relationship with aligned goals and success.

There are so many facets to this concept. You should prioritize staying on the same page for many reasons, like for the sake of achieving your financial goals or being a team when parenting. But you should also stay on the same page emotionally and mentally. Connecting with your partner is so important to your mental wellbeing – they should be your support system and your ally in all things.

Finally, and this is something Larry and I have experienced intimately, making time for genuine conversation has made us find even more things we have in common or enjoy doing together than we ever knew before. Your relationship can be fun and exciting, and you can always be learning more about your partner even when you thought you knew everything already.

COMMIT TO WEEKLY DATE NIGHTS

For some couples, that time for genuine conversation might only be a few minutes over coffee before the kids get up, or for the hour after they go to bed that you both stay up to watch TV. It’s important you’re getting that time in daily, but it’s still not enough. It’s great to stay on the same page and enjoy each other’s minds, but you’ve also got to keep the dating life alive as well!

It can be easy to forget what it was like to date each other before you got married. Revive that old spot you guys frequented, even if it was childish. Explore new places and new activities to learn even more about each other. Push past your comfort zone, and make sure these dates don’t turn into boring, repetitive events just because they’re a weekly or bi-weekly commitment.

BECOME OK WITH ADULTS-ONLY VACATIONS

Parents – new parents, especially – might find it extremely difficult to pry themselves away from their kids. It’s scary to even take your eye off them for a second, and you miss them when they aren’t around. At the same time, it’s important to not forget how much we really, really need adult time. One can only sanely withstand about 300 rounds of Cocomelon before you’ve gone over the cliff.

You might even feel extremely guilty about taking time for yourself when you feel obligated to entertain and nurture your kids. Because of this, adults-only vacations can feel selfish or even impossible. But you need to get okay with it, even if it’s just a long weekend or a day trip! If a few hours one day is all you can bare to be whisked away with your spouse, just do it! You might worry about the babies, but I promise they’ll be okay and excited as anything to see you when you get back.

KEEP THE BEDROOM FIRE GOING

I don’t think I need to write much here, but it must be said. Once you’ve fully recovered physically, mentally, and emotionally from the shock of having a baby, it’s important to remember that your relationship is still there and in need of some desperate attention. I’m not telling you to force it, but genuinely put some effort into reviving that spiciness in the bedroom. At the very least, start warming up that physical affection with loving touches like massages, kisses, dancing, anything!

REMEMBER THAT HAVING A HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP HELPS YOUR KIDS

If you’re having a hard time keeping your marriage alive, or there are some doubts, fears, and limiting mindsets that are holding you back, just remember this: your kids depend on your marriage having a strong foundation. Their growth and success on every level will thrive based on how much you and your partner are happy, healthy, and stable in your own relationship outside of being parents. Kids are SPONGES, more than we know it. They’ll soak up every negative action, thought, conversation, and vibe and it’ll permeate their attitudes and lifestyles for a very long time. It’s your responsibility as a parent to ensure you and your partner are keeping your cups full so that they can overflow for your kids!

YOU’RE A POWER COUPLE – ACT LIKE IT!

Keeping a marriage alive after kids is not only possible, but super important and really easy once you get the hang of it!

Overcoming Setbacks

Lyss Morton — Fri, 02 Dec 2022 05:30:00 -0400

In this episode of the Making Mommy Move Show, Alyssa and Larry talk about personal growth and professional development. They discuss the importance of learning from your mistakes and not dwell on them. Instead, they advise their listeners to focus on making improvements and growing as a person. This is excellent advice for anyone who is looking to make progress in their personal or professional life. By taking this approach, you can avoid getting bogged down by setbacks and instead keep moving forward towards your goals. Whether you're looking to improve your personal relationships or advance in your career, remember that making progress requires making mistakes - and learning from them.

Today`s Goal: Be open to learning from your mistakes. Otherwise, you'll never reach your full potential. So next time you make a mistake, don't beat yourself up about it. Just take it as a chance to learn and grow.

Episode Takeaways

•Entrepreneurship is a journey with ups and downs

• It's important to be vulnerable and show the whole picture, not just the highlights

• Taking consistent action in the right ways is what will help you succeed

• Failing forward is part of entrepreneurship - learn from your failures to do better next time

betting on your employer for the future.... bet on yourself instead

your employer may not have their shit together
your employer may not be as financially sound as you think
your employer may be trying to side step the IRS
i was just working with someone that shared her story about her first job where her employer did this & the IRS came knocking & he literally crawled out of his flower shop army style
your employer may not have goals as large as you do.

BET ON YOURSELF.....

Goal Challenge: Limiting Mindsets/ Goal Setting

Lyss Morton — Mon, 28 Nov 2022 05:30:00 -0400

Mindset is everything. Your mindset towards your goal will shape whether or not you reach it. A negative mindset will sabotage your efforts before you've even begun, while a positive mindset will give you the motivation and drive to keep pushing forward, even when things get tough. That's why it's so important to set your goals with a positive mindset.

When you approach your goal with confidence and excitement, you're much more likely to achieve it. So take a deep breath, focus on your positive attitude, and get ready to make some real progress! Tune in to this episode and hear more actionable tips from Lyss.

Today`s Goal: Overcome negative self-talk and limiting mindsets in order to achieve your goals.

Episode Takeaways:

• Limiting mindsets are like the devil on your shoulder, telling you that you can't do something or that you're never going to make progress. These negative thoughts prevent you from taking action towards your goals.

• One way to reshift these mindsets is by acting as if you are already the person who has accomplished their goal - this means putting yourself in their headspace and doing things that they would do.

• Another way to reframe these limiting mindsets is by thinking about the opposite of whatever negative thought you're having - for example, instead of thinking "I'll never have money", tell yourself "I will have money". Believe it with everything in your soul and see your life change!

Goal Challenge: The Importance of Mommy Self-Care

Lyss Morton — Fri, 25 Nov 2022 05:30:00 -0400

I've been getting back in the habit of going to the gym... And in the spirit of building a business, working on your goals, and raising a family it's important to think about how your cup is looking, too.

If your cup is full you're able to dedicate an abundance of energy to the people around you to best help them with their problems. When your cup is empty you start to feel resentful, drained, frustrated, and maybe a bit angry.

So I want to challenge you to do something to fill your cup today and everyday. I've been interviewing some really amazing women and we've had the pleasure of talking about the importance of self care in creating routines... Especially in the morning so you fill your cup up first thing in the morning- and not necessarily the coffee cup- so that you can then do good for your business, kids, spouse, and overall life and goals around you.

My morning routine is looking like:

cozy with kids on the couch before school
bring girls to school
15 min journal time
Podcast while I tidy up a bit
9:30 Gym Class
then i start my meetings, content creation, event planning, ordering, and whatever my task list looks like for the day

So, I'm not able to work on my list for the day until I have filled up my cup with mandatory self care including journaling & self reflection to get my mind in the right space, a podcast episode to get the inspiration flowing, and a workout to get my body moving.

I want to challenge you today to think about the morning routine you can create for yourself... What does it look like for you to fill your cup up in the morning? Do you think you'll be more productive and intentional with your time when you feel satiated, too?

Goal Challenge: The Law of Attraction

Lyss Morton — Mon, 21 Nov 2022 05:30:00 -0400

In this episode, Lyss talks about the law of attraction and how it can help manifest your desires. She explains that feeling positive is essential to attracting what you want into your life. When you focus on what you want, and you radiate positive energy, you attract more of the same into your experience. This simple process can be used to manifest anything you desire, whether it's a new job, a new relationship, or anything else. The key is to stay focused on what you want and to feel good about it. The universe will take care of the rest. Thanks for tuning in!

Today`s: Goal: Stay positive and keep your vibration high. When you do, all kinds of good things will start coming your way.

Episode Highlight

01:56 - The law of attraction is basically, when you are feeling positive feelings, you are telling the universe what exactly you want. If you feeling regret, if you feeling remorse you will going to attract more of this feelings.

03:03 - One of the important things is to be really specific on what you want because if you are not specific it`s going to give you what you are asking for.

04:17 - I`m also writing in the present tense, everything that I`m thankful for.

The Struggle Is Real: Finding Work Life Balance as a Parent

Lyss Morton — Fri, 18 Nov 2022 05:30:00 -0400

We've been struggling with the idea of a work life balance. And we wanted to chat with you about the ways we've been trying to maximize our productivity in our businesses while also enjoying more time with our kids:

Being a parent is one of the most rewarding, yet challenging, roles you can take on in life. Not only are you responsible for raising happy and successful children, but you also have to manage a household, juggle work commitments, and maintain a social life. It can be difficult to find a balance between all of these responsibilities, but it's important to make sure that you're taking care of yourself as well as your family. One way to do this is to write everything down. Having a visual reminder of what needs to be done can help you stay organized and productive. Additionally, try to schedule some time for yourself every day, even if it's just for a few minutes. Taking some time out for yourself will help you recharge and be a better parent and entrepreneur.

Today`s Goal: Keep a running list of everything that needs to be done. This can help to prevent overwhelmed feelings, as you will always have a clear overview of what needs to be accomplished. Additionally, this can also help you to prioritize your tasks and ensure that the most important items are always completed. Taking a few minutes each day to update your list can help you to stay on track and maintain a healthy work life balance.

Episode Highlight:

02:19 - Making sure that we start our days off on the right foot, and really dedicating like the first two, three hours in the day, to getting ourselves in the right headspace.

05:51 - You need to decide that my mental and physical well being is first priority in the morning. And that sets the stage for the rest of your day. And then you pick a handful of things that you want to prioritize for the day that you want to get done.

08:49 - Seeing it happening, looking at your results, looking at what you've accomplished and how far you've come. It makes it that much more motivating to keep going to.

15:10 - I think the big takeaway from this episode to manage your work life balance is to write everything down first off because if you don't know what you have to do, it's just gonna like it's gonna keep growing, and you're gonna forget about things but it's also going to be in the back of your head.

Goal Challenge Set and Achieve

Lyss Morton — Mon, 14 Nov 2022 05:30:00 -0400

As a mompreneur, it's essential to set goals for yourself- both in your business and in your personal life. By setting goals, you can push yourself to achieve new heights and experience a greater sense of fulfillment. However, it's important to remember that goals should also be challenging. After all, the feeling of overcoming a difficult goal is one of the most satisfying experiences we can have as humans. So don't be afraid to push yourself- set goals that are ambitious and outside of your comfort zone. With hard work and determination, you'll be surprised at what you can achieve.

Today`s Goal: First, take some time to think about what you want to achieve. Whether it’s launching a new product, increasing your sales or losing 20 pounds, be specific about what you want to accomplish.

Next, write down your goals. Studies have shown that people who write down their goals are more likely to achieve them than those who don’t.

Finally, create a plan of action. What steps do you need to take to reach your goals? Make sure your plan is realistic and achievable – then get started!

Remember, accomplishing goals isn’t always easy but it’s definitely worth it. Not only will you feel proud of yourself, but achieving your goals will also give you the confidence to take on new challenges in the future. So what are you waiting for? Get started today!

The Power of Positive Parenting: How to Encourage Good Behaviour in Children

Lyss Morton — Fri, 11 Nov 2022 05:30:00 -0400

Larry and I have been struggling with the terrible twos these days. We've been smacked in the face with our own behavior and are quickly realizing we need to nip our actions in the butt because it is affecting our oldest daughter greatly.

One thing we forget is that she is only two years old. She acts so mature for her age - speech, learning, her speaking full sentences, it just amazes us that sometimes she emotionally acts the way that she does. Lately, we've been noticing she's been craving more of our attention... so you know what that means she's doing? Tantrums... Hitting... Bullying... Coming out of her room and nap-time and bedtime... Anything to get a big reaction out of us.

So, something we've learned and that we're starting to implement is that we need to change OUR behavior. She's learning from us!

Boy, that's a smack in the face, right?

We need to change our behavior to encourage better learned behavior on her part... So this may look like ignoring a tantrum or hitting someone, and instead praising the good behaviors she does all of the time... It might look like making bed time more enjoyable and a quality-time focused event where we make it enjoyable for her and give her more autonomy so there is less of a power struggle by asking her questions that make her feel like she's in control. Or giving her the power to say "night night book, instead of just taking it away."

Demonstrating more emotionally intelligent behavior, speaking to her nicely, and treating her with respect is going to yield a far greater outcome than yelling, spanking, or taking away her toys... You know what that will teach her? To yell, hit when she doesn't get what she wants, or to take a toy away from another child.

So, this realization came in one of OUR late night talks because it's been a real problem. And we want to be solution focused, not place blame on one another, and be the best parents we can be for our girls.

So, if you are having some difficulties with your kids I want to give you some key practices to work through with your partner... Because you two need to be united in your parenting so that you are consistently providing the same example behavior and encouraging the same good behaviors.

I want you to write down three behaviors you've noticed in your kids that are troublesome.
Now, I want you to write down three behaviors you are doing that may be teaching them each of those troublesome behaviors.
Now, talk with your partner about these behaviors you're demonstrating and how it correlates with the behavior your child is showcasing.
How are you going to be better today?

Lyss Morton — Thu, 03 Nov 2022 05:30:00 -0400

Mom entrepreneurs have a lot on their plates. They are often balancing work, life, and business all at the same time. It requires the power of mindset to stay focused on tasks throughout the day, and ultimately moving the needle toward accomplishing the bigger goals.

Alyssa is joined by Ayesha, who is a mom entrepreneur herself. Ayesha shares her thoughts and tips about mompreneurs and how to balance work and life and business.

Today's Goal: It’s important to be strategic about your time and energy levels by plotting out your day or week in advance. Don’t try to do everything at once, and most importantly, don’t be afraid to ask for help! Whether it’s hiring a babysitter or asking your partner to pitch in more around the house.

Episode Highlight

07:41 - The first thing for anyone is knowing who you're talking to and again that's marketing generally. So who are you talking to? Why? And how you're going to help them? So understanding your ideal customers, your ideal clients in absolute detail.

12:55 - Understand what my values are, understand what I stand for, the kind of life I want to live, the kind of business I want to run, the kind of value I want to give to people.

18:26 - I think asking for help and not being afraid that you are failing.

20:21 - Self care is so important to maintain ourself, because it is usually forgotten, so don`t forget to take care of yourself.

32:35 - What if it all fails, what if my business doesn't work, what if I don't have clients, what if I don't have money, don't think like that, reverse that on your head.

Don’t Let Self Sabotage Hold You Back

Lyss Morton — Mon, 17 Oct 2022 05:30:00 -0400

Self-sabotage is when we do things that hold us back from reaching our goals. It can be something as small as procrastinating on a project or as big as quitting a job. Most of the time, self-sabotage is fueled by fear. We may be afraid of failure, or of success. We may be afraid of change, or of staying the same. Whatever the case may be, self-sabotage is toxic. It keeps us from moving forward, and it can have a major impact on our mental and emotional health. If you find yourself self-sabotaging, it's important to take action. Talk to a therapist or counselor, and try to identify the root cause of your fear. Once you understand what's driving your self-sabotage, you can start to work on making positive changes in your life.

Today`s Goal and Note:

Self-sabotage comes in many forms.
What do you think when you hear self-sabotage?
How to get back into the swing of things when you lose momentum.
Take note of the things you are trying to sabotage and the ways that you are sabotaging it.
What’s something we can do to make our lives better?

Why do you have to wait until you’re older?

Lyss Morton — Mon, 03 Oct 2022 05:30:00 -0400

Alyssa and Larry emphasize the importance of not waiting until you're older to do something for yourself, like starting a business. They also emphasize that if you're a professional worker, you have the right to charge whatever you want to charge. This is an important point because often times we can be hesitant to start our own businesses or to negotiate our salaries because we feel like we're not worth it. However, Alyssa and Larry remind us that we are in control of our own lives and we should never sell ourselves short. Starting your own business is a great way to take control of your life and your career, and it's never too early to start planning for your future. So don't wait any longer, get out there and make your dreams a reality!

Today`s Goal: Take the plunge and start your own business now, while you still have the energy and drive to make it a success. By doing so, you can enjoy the fruitssooner rather than later.

Episode Highlight

You have the right to charge whatever you want to charge
Why you shouldn’t under-charge.
Don’t wait until you’re out of your job to start your business.
Don`t bet on the future in a 9-to-5.
Don’t let the fear of failure stop you.

Juggling Work, Parenting, and Running a Business

Lyss Morton — Mon, 26 Sep 2022 05:30:00 -0400

It's no secret that parenting and work can be a tough balance. But when you factor in running a business as well, it can sometimes feel like you're being pulled in a million different directions. And unfortunately, there are always people who are quick to judgement, whether it's because they think you're not spending enough time with your kids or you're not giving your all to your business. But the truth is, every situation is different. And as long as you're doing what's best for you and your family, that's all that matters. So don't let anyone else tell you how to live your life. You know what's best for you and your loved ones. And as long as you keep that in mind, you'll be just fine.

Today`s Goal: When it comes to judgement, trust your gut and go with your instinct. You know what you're doing and you know why you're doing it. And chances are, you're going to do great.

Episode Takeaways:

05:07 - With all of that in mind, we still have the time like the quality time with them. At home, when we have dinner when we have bath time when we read books before bed, when we go to the park when we go for ice cream dates, like we make sure that we have quality time.

07:00 - We've got tools in place. We've got systems in place, we've got people to help us like, exactly, ultimately, like running businesses comes down to trying to systemize everything.

08:34 - People that act differently towards you when you start going on your own path it's not the judgment, but it's just the way that the temperature of the room changes.

13:50 - Everybody's like, you have so much competence. It's like, I really don't, but I'm just pretending like I do. I'm acting as if because if I act as if it's gonna happen and it's gonna become a pattern, and I'm gonna feel that way more often and it's just going to be many things.

Lyss Morton — Tue, 20 Sep 2022 05:30:00 -0400

It's important to remember that your employees are a valuable asset. They are the ones who help to keep your business running, and they deserve to be treated with respect. That means providing fair compensation and benefits, creating a positive work environment, and valuing their contributions. When you treat your employees well, you not only show them that they are valued, but you also set the tone for how your business will be run. Employees who feel appreciated and valued are more likely to be productive and to stay with your company for the long term.

07:02 - When you have an asset and do everything in your power to keep them because they know when they're not treated with respect, they know when they're valued, like their ideas aren't valued, they know when they're not respected, they know that they can do better, and somebody else is willing to acknowledge that they deserve better.

12:19 - We want you to realize how worthy you are and to know your worth and for business owners to know what your employees are worth and to make sure that you're treating them the way that they should be treated.

FEAR OF FAILURE

Lyss Morton — Fri, 16 Sep 2022 05:30:00 -0400

In business, as in life, there is always an element of risk. and while some people are naturally more risk-averse than others, everyone experiences a certain amount of anxiety when starting something new or taking on a new challenge. what separates the successful from the unsuccessful is not the absence of fear but the ability to overcome it.

many people let their fear of failure prevents them from even trying. but as the saying goes, "the only way to fail is to not try at all." so if you're ever feeling paralyzed by fear, remember that it's better to take a chance and fail than to never try at all. because in business and in life, success is always possible - but it's never guaranteed.

Today`s Goal: When you're feeling like this when you're feeling defeated and afraid to fail and everything, just know that you're not the only one because everyone that's ever started at anything has gone through it. So just keep chugging along.

Episode Highlight:

01:26 - Especially when you're trying to build something and you're not sure about it. And it's something that hasn't been done, or no one that has done it before. No one really lean on about it. It breeds a lot of doubt.

04:52 - There`s as much as you could be making if you put your effort into yourself.

08:03 - Doesn't matter if it's been a couple of years like us, or if it's your first week, and you're doubting yourself from the get go, or it's been 10 years, and you're wondering if what you're doing still working, that fear of failure is always there.

11:03 - We want to leave you, keep moving forward. We hope that our example is kind of like a handhold so that you can come with us on this journey. We want you to be there with us and on the ride.

DOING THINGS TO IMPRESS

Lyss Morton — Tue, 13 Sep 2022 05:30:00 -0400

It's important to live your life for yourself and not worry about what other people think. If you're always trying to please other people, you're not going to be happy. Just do what makes you happy and don't worry about impressing anyone. Be confident in yourself and your abilities. People will respect you more if you're genuine and authentic.

As a business owner, it's especially important to follow your own vision and not get swayed by what other people think. You need to be confident in your decision-making ability and trust that you know what's best for your business. It's okay to solicit advice from others, but at the end of the day, you need to make the decisions that are best for you and your business. So don't worry about what other people think- just do what makes you happy and be confident in yourself!

Today`s Goal: Be shameless. Don't be afraid to post something because you're afraid of somebody else is going to think of you, don't be afraid to start that business, to start exercising, start whatever journey you want to go on because it fuels you it excites you and it motivates you and inspires you.

Episode Highlight:

02:21 - If something in your gut is telling you that you should say no or that you're going to regret it, or that you're going to resent saying yes, say no,

03:46 - At the end of the day, people are going to have their own opinions about you, regardless of what you're doing. So just do what you want to do.

05:08 - Don't worry about what other people are thinking about you. Like I said, they're gonna have their opinions, regardless of what you're doing.

06:52 - Keep doing what you're doing nobody else needs to validate it. Nobody else needs to have any sort of opinion about it because the only opinion that matters is your own.

Having a difficult conversation is never easy, but there are ways to make it less daunting and more productive. First, it's important to be clear about what the conversation is about. What are the goals? What needs to be accomplished? Once you have a clear understanding of the purpose of the conversation, you can start to prepare.

Conflict is a natural part of any relationship, but it doesn't have to be a negative experience. In fact, conflict can be an opportunity to strengthen your bond with another person. The key is to approach the situation in a constructive way. One of the most important things you can do is to listen to the other person's perspective. Try to understand where they are coming from, and don't be emotionally attached to the outcome. It's also important to keep the conversation professional and focused on the issue at hand. avoid getting personal or attacking the other person's character. If you can do this, you'll be well on your way to resolving the conflict in a positive way.

Today`s Goal: It is important to be clear about what you want to say before the conversation. You should also make sure to listen to the other person and try to understand their perspective. It can be helpful to stay calm and avoid getting defensive. If the conversation starts to become heated, you can agree to take a break and come back to it later.

Episode Highlight:

01:21 - It's important to have these discussions and to really make sure that there's no nothing up in the air that everything's understood, and that these conversations are had in a professional way, and a tactful way not defensively.

03:34 - It's better to have the conversation than to not have it at all, especially in life or business.

04:47 - Keep it personal, keep it professional, try not to get too emotionally attached to it, even though I know that can be hard sometimes.

05:40 - Always come from a solution standpoint, and not a problem standpoint, like you want to really come to a resolution.

07:08 - You need to listen, like actually turn on the listening ears and listen to what they're saying, Don't immediately jump at the ball to have a response to what they're saying.

UNPACKING A TONY ROBBINS WORKSHOP

Lyss Morton — Tue, 06 Sep 2022 05:30:00 -0400

In this episode, Alyssa and Larry unpack a Tony Robbins workshop and share their thought about mindset and how our mindset affects the way we see life. They mention that one of the most important things Tony Robbins teaches is that we need to identify our limiting beliefs in order to change our mindset.

Alyssa and Larry mention some of the common limiting beliefs that people have, such as "I'm not good enough" or "I can't do it". After discussing some of the ways in which these beliefs can hold us back, they share some tips on how to begin changing our mindset. Overall, this is an insightful episode that will leave you with a lot to think about.

Today's goals: We encourage listeners to challenge their own limiting beliefs and to adopt a growth mindset. By doing so, We believe that anyone can achieve their full potential.

Episode Highlight:

01:53 - We just make our own barriers, and we build up walls to protect us, but it winds up holding us back. The walls that protect you also imprison you.

02:51 - Break down those walls that you build up, in that it's all in your head. Everything that you believe is all in your head, and can be changed to something that is better.

04:40 - When I talk, I have a really soft voice normally. So people probably just don't hear me. But I take it as my voice is invalid. And then I'm annoying when I talk. And of course, what that cost me is that it cost me friendships and connections and being able to share my story and my experiences that could potentially help somebody because of that limiting mindset.

10:25 - The limiting belief that you don't know how to do something shouldn't exist. And it's very easy to flip that belief.

11:33 - The more you do something, the more natural it becomes, the more you do it, the better you get. Practice makes better.

Today's goals: Even if you are on a tight budget, there are ways to fund your business growth. You may need to hustle a little harder, but it is possible to find the money you need.

CAN I BE A FULL-TIME EMPLOYEE AND ENTREPRENEUR?

Lyss Morton — Tue, 30 Aug 2022 05:30:00 -0400

Many would say it's impossible, a mere dream, a pie-in-the-sky mentality... but I'm here to encourage you, Mama. You can work full-time and build your business and raise your kids and love your husband AND take care of yourself.

Never limit yourself! If you have a vision for your life that doesn't include the 9-5, that ditches societal norms, that allows you to achieve everything you've ever wanted and more, then manifest it. My husband and I have both worked full-time and built businesses simultaneously - my husband is still working full-time, so we get it. But we also know that we're doing it, so you can, too. Here's how.

Today's Goals: Set a timeline for your goals that challenges you to hustle and keep your "WHY" in mind, then repeat your vision and your reasons to yourself all day, every day until you make it.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

Building a business often has to happen while you're still working full time, and there's nothing wrong with that.
Timelines are great to get started, but they're also even better when they help you reach smaller goals faster and accelerate your growth as you go.
Finding your "WHY," the reason you're doing all this in the first place, is the key to changing your mindset and motivating yourself to go beyond anything you ever thought possible.

COMMUNITY OVER COMPETITION

Lyss Morton — Mon, 29 Aug 2022 05:30:00 -0400

Just about every entrepreneur has at least one experience where their heart sinks... someone is doing exactly what you're doing. You thought your ideas and execution were unique, top-notch, the best out there, and yet someone else is getting the business you deserve!

It's so difficult to have this realization, but let's flip that mindset upside down. There's room for everyone, and business owners can benefit a ton more from becoming a community and helping each other out rather than seeing each other as nasty competition. Let's talk about how being friends with like-minded people and entrepreneurs in your niche is actually the best decision to make for your business.

Today's goals: Start networking with your niche community and find ways to support each other rather than tear each other down.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

How the competition isn't always direct competition - there are different niches and subsets within each industry
Local businesses offering similar services can work together so each owner gets their perfect clients rather than just hoarding any client they can find
Getting over the heart-sinking mindset that people who copy your ideas are stealing your success
Surrounding yourself with like-minded, supportive people who light you up and choosing to walk away from toxic relationships that cut you down or limit you

USING SOCIAL MEDIA TO BUILD YOUR BUSINESS WITHOUT BURNOUT

Lyss Morton — Fri, 26 Aug 2022 05:30:00 -0400

Social media truly is the bane of the business owner's existence. It drains so much time and energy, and even time-saving practices aren't enough to make it tolerable sometimes.

At the same time, social media is extremely important to reach your audience, gain exposure, and communicate what's going on to your clients and customers. In order to keep myself going strong and build my business with social media without completely burning out, I've learned a few really important lessons I'd love to share with you here!

Today's goal: Implement work-life boundaries, crush limiting mindsets, and remember to give yourself grace as you learn and grow on social media and beyond.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

Remember not to compare your chapter 1 to someone else's chapters 5, 10, or 20 - you're not going to start off with 100k followers or show-stopping engagement levels, it takes time!
Find platforms and areas of opportunity that allow you to meet your audience where they are and engage, even if they aren't as popular as TikTok or Instagram
Block out content that brings on negativity and reinforces your limiting mindsets while learning to fill your feeds with inspiring and helpful content instead.
Establishing boundaries and being realistic - there's life outside of work, and the world won't end if you need to put on Do Not Disturb to stop getting bombarded with notifications

HOW TO GET MORE DONE IN A DAY

Lyss Morton — Tue, 23 Aug 2022 05:30:00 -0400

I know, not everyone is totally as crazy as me, but my mama friends must know what it's like to have a mind that's just ready to explode with things to do and no way to organize or prioritize.

My husband calls my mind a spiderweb that never stops getting spun! I always have new ideas and a hugely intense fire for doing them all right away, all at once. At the same time, life is hectic and I must prioritize, so I lean on my to-do lists. Let's talk tips and tricks for prioritizing, getting stuff done, and learning about which tasks are truly worth spending time on.

Today's Goals: Set up lists for what must be done today, what must be done soon, and what you want to do at some point. Then, set aside the list of want-to-do tasks for a while and revisit to see if you still want to give them a try, and give yourself small goals so that you never get too overwhelmed.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALKED ABOUT:

My personal war with ideation, time management, and prioritization
How I've learned to organize my thoughts with a system of lists
Saving time and frustration by walking away from ideas before I reevaluate their importance
Getting stuff done more efficiently by putting tasks into smaller containers rather than overwhelming myself with huge goals

MOMMY SELF CARE

Lyss Morton — Mon, 22 Aug 2022 05:30:00 -0400

If you're not a happy mama, your kids aren't going to be happy either.

If you're not doing what brings joy to your life and prioritizing self-care, then you'll begin resenting your life and those that are demanding your attention. It's a hard pill to swallow, but moms who don't take care of themselves often find it difficult to enjoy time with their kids. Time to turn things around: make yourself happy so you can make your kids happy!

Today's Goal: Invest time in reconnecting with activities, hobbies, and interests that you've given up due to prioritizing your household responsibilities.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

How common it is for moms to lose touch with themselves and what makes them happy
Prioritizing self-care isn't selfish, it's necessary!
Moms who carve out time to recharge and reconnect with themselves are more patient, present, and happy around their families

DO YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY WANT YOU TO BE SUCCESSFUL?

Lyss Morton — Fri, 19 Aug 2022 05:30:00 -0400

It matters who you allow into your life and your business.

In order to thrive and keep that fire going, you need to have a support group of people who will light up as much as you do when you're happy, inspired, and motivated -- not people who will doubt you, raise concerns, and fear-monger. Do you have people you can trust with your fire?

Today's Goals: Identify the people in your life who are truly supportive allies and the people who are there to knock you down at every step, even if they don't realize it. Then, protect your fire by keeping your allies close while keeping others at a distance.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

How I've learned the hard way to keep my passions, big ideas, and success to myself and my close allies
Identifying who is truly happy for you and who is always getting in your way and shooting down your dreams
How people who often put you down are doing so because they have their own insecurities, fears, and limiting mindsets
The importance of protecting your business and your personal life from toxic influences
You are amazing! No matter what anyone says. You have it in you to achieve everything you've ever wanted, and you deserve to be celebrated

BREAKING GENERATIONAL CURSES

Lyss Morton — Tue, 16 Aug 2022 05:30:00 -0400

Let's get our hands dirty and talk about breaking generational curses. Larry and I are set on breaking out of our lower-middle-class mindsets and financial status, and we want to help you do it, too.

It can be uncomfortable to talk about money and social structure in relation to your friends, family, and your own private household. Because there's so much hush-hush about it, less affluent people are stuck in the lower classes, never hearing about ways they can break free from vicious money cycles and start finding happiness and freedom beyond the paycheck-to-paycheck lifestyle. All that's about to change: we're going to break down doors, pull away the curtains, and help you see the light.

Today's Goals: Identify the limiting mindsets you've inherited from your parents, friends, and community that are keeping you locked into your paycheck-to-paycheck life. Then, identify great sources and mentors who can educate you about breaking free and building wealth.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

How your family and community can seriously shape your mindset and affect generations to come
Realizing what limiting mindsets we've inherited from our parents, including negative views of financial honesty in marriage and going to college unnecessarily
Learning how to flip those lower-middle-class mindsets upside down to begin educating ourselves about investing and smart uses for debt
Emphasizing that where you come from never has to be where you should stay or what your kids should experience

HOW BAD DO YOU WANT IT?

Lyss Morton — Mon, 15 Aug 2022 05:30:00 -0400

I hope you're ready with open ears and an open mind because here it goes: How bad do you want it?

Are you willing to stay up a few extra hours at night after the kids have gone to bed? Are you willing to sacrifice that extra hour of TV, those mindless minutes of scrolling through IG, or that extra snack you really don't need? Inspired action will move the needle for you in every part of your life and goals, but you have to keep asking yourself: "How bad do I really want it? What am I working towards?"

Today's Goals: Realign yourself with your initial fire, the passion that got you on your journey in the first place. Then, reignite the fire, identify your limiting mindsets, and crush every doubt and excuse that has been holding you back from reaching your goals.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

What it means to be driven by inspired action
Identifying and crushing limiting mindsets and excuses
Reigniting your fire by asking yourself just how badly you really want to succeed

Some nights, limiting beliefs and normal life stressors can hit us really hard. They can get us to doubt everything we've done and everything we plan to do, but we need to choose growth.

This episode, we bring back Larry Morton to talk about how his past few days have been really tough when dealing with his own limiting mindsets and the stressors of being the current sole provider of our household. After a great discussion, we're able to move beyond his fears and doubts so that he can believe and achieve.

Having open discussions with your partner is key to moving past your limiting mindsets and fears

YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO IT ALL

Lyss Morton — Mon, 08 Aug 2022 05:30:00 -0400

You'll never know freedom like you'll know it after you choose to outsource tasks. This goes for mamas and mompreneurs!

Anything you can imagine is able to be outsourced, and I urge you to identify those tasks that are holding you back and find someone who can take over. Hate cleaning? You can hire a cleaning service. Hours wasted managing social media? Find a social media manager. Yes - these things cost money, but you'll make more money in the long run.

Today's Goals: Identify tasks that you hate or that waste time, then find the right people who can take over these tasks so you can start making even more money doing what you love.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

Assessing the main reasons you tell yourself you can't delegate tasks to others
Valuing your minute rate higher than what you pay for delegated tasks to reach your money goals
Hiring the right people so you can comfortably let go of control
Turning talents and skills into passionate side hustles that can help pay for outsourcing

MOVE TOGETHER OR MOVE APART WITH LARRY MORTON

Lyss Morton — Tue, 02 Aug 2022 05:30:00 -0400

Husbands, boyfriends, and significant others, we have a PSA from Larry: Get on board, because she's moving with or without you.

This time, we bring Larry back on to give us an inside look at what was going through his mind as the Lyss empire began to take shape. What was he thinking and feeling when Alyssa decided she wanted to stay home with the kids to start up a business rather than go back to her full-time office work? How has he felt his own beliefs, emotions, and mindset evolve as he started to get on board with the idea? What can you take away from this evolution in their relationship?

Today's Goals: If you're making mommy moves, identify how your mindset shift could be affecting your partner, and think about ways you can get them to understand and get on board with your goals. If you're the partner, identify limiting beliefs that could be holding you back from fully supporting your partner's goals and what you can do to get involved.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

How the typical full-time, dual-income family often operates with limiting mindsets
The effects of changing mindsets in one partner when the other partner isn't on board
The benefits a couple or family unit can see once both partners move together instead of apart

Lyss Morton — Mon, 01 Aug 2022 05:30:00 -0400

Have you ever noticed just how much time you spend on your phone distracted instead of taking advantage of time with your kids or getting work done?

I'm the Queen of To-Do Lists, but I still struggle with staying on top of my day, being productive, and still enjoying my free time with my kids to the fullest extent. The biggest culprit? TIME-SUCKERS! If you don't think you'd be satisfied at the end of a long unproductive day, then it's time to pull out the magnifying glass and analyze just what you're doing (or not doing) that's wasting your life away.

Today's Goals: Identify your major time-suckers and start eliminating them from your habits and routine so you can get back to loving your life to the fullest.

IN THIS EPISODE, I TALK ABOUT:

Figuring out what your priorities are so you can get your life back on track to reach your goals
Being honest with yourself about the way you spend your time
Identifying tasks, habits, and vices that are major time-suckers and getting in your way

Lyss Morton — Fri, 29 Jul 2022 05:30:00 -0400

Are you a single mom, or do you act like one because your S.O. is away often? Or are you happily married but grew up in a home with a single mom, or do you have friends who are single moms? This podcast episode is for you.

This time, I wasn't able to get my mom on for the interview we had planned - that will come later - but I delve into my own experience growing up with a single mom and what I've learned from it. Ultimately, I want to give you 3 takeaways for how you can support single moms you know because they really do need it.

Today's Goals: Identify the hard-working moms in your life who need a helping hand, even if they'd never reach out and ask for it. Then, dedicate at least one time a month to offering them support, no strings attached.

IN THIS EPISODE, I TALK ABOUT:

What it was like to grow up with a single mom, divorce, and moving constantly to stay afloat
How to support moms by offering them time for self-care
Assisting your single mom friends in daily chores and tasks that get forgotten or backed up
Offering a listening, nonjudgemental ear when your single mom friends need it most
