Productivity Made Easy with Lori Oberoeckling

A Purpose Driven Mom Podcast

Episode 226

What would happen if we cultivated our energy when planning our day? In this episode, guest Lori teaches us about a few secrets of a supermom that we can do to be productive moms — the easy way.

One of the keys that Lori goes over is cultivating our energy with intention. This means, planning on doing the most critical task at your highest energy peak in the day. Instead of what 99% of moms actually do — which is plan our day around what other people need.

When we are able to get so much more done in a shorter amount of time it gives us:

➡️ more flexibility

➡️ makes us feel better because we actually did the things that we want to do

➡️ it saves us literal time on the clock

Lori believes that we can have it all as busy moms. We can have a career that we love and a family that we love, and we can feel balanced and aligned and happy in that. She believes all this is possible … but that means that we are not always doing all the things all the time.

Ditching the “perfect mom” mental baggage and making our productivity as easy as possible on us … sounds good right?!
