My guest today has been writing for years, first as a blogger via The Mom Creative and, more recently, as an author – including a Wall Street Journal bestseller.
I’m talking about Jessica N. Turner, author of the brand new book, out today, called Stretched Too Thin: How Working Moms Can Lose the Guilt, Work Smarter, And Thrive.

Jessica says working moms constantly battle the pull to do all the things well. From managing work and home responsibilities to being impacted by a lack of self-care and time for deep friendships, the struggle is real.
At the end of each day, many working moms are exhausted and stretched too thin. But this does not have to be the norm.
Listen in below (and share it with a mom you know) as she shares what she’s learned along the way.

In today’s episode, I ask Jessica to share:

* How to take inventory of where you are currently and what that means for dealing with the mental load of all you have going on
* The importance of self-care and why it’s something you have to take seriously
* Jessica’s tips for better connecting with your kids
* …and plenty more!
