00: Introducing The Selfish Mom Academy

I’m super excited about getting this project off the ground. I’ve been sitting on it for months, so this going to be amazing. This is going to be my place to just be a real Mom and be really open about what it’s really like.

Just a bit about me. I have been working with women in fitness since 2003. I own my own gym, Sync Fitness, in Seattle WA. Prior to opening my gym, I worked in a Psychiatric Hospital.

In spite of being a fitness professional, I grew up overweight – a real macaroni and cheese kid. I’ve always struggled with self- image and we’ll definitely be talking about that on the podcast.

However, this is NOT a podcast about fitness. Sure, I will give you some tips on fitness and nutrition as they relate to everyday life. I’m not into cultivating rock hard bodies anymore – I’m into creating an amazing life!

Here’s what we’re going to be talking about on the show:

Why I’m not doing a fitness podcast
Why I don’t care about 6 pack abs anymore
My infertility journey
My journey from brick & mortar business owner to online business owner
The juggle of being home with a baby and 2.5 businesses
My vision of motherhood vs my reality of motherhood
The first thing I did when my water broke (aside from trying to hold the kid in for another week)
How my “failure to thrive” child took over my life
The big move of getting my child in childcare outside my home
How NewbornLand kicked my butt
How to pursue your own interests as a mom and still be an amazing mom
How to find yourself in the midst of Mom-dom
The systems and tools I have developed to try to pull it all off
Why your legacy is important, and how selfishness is a critical component
How I’m going to help you live the life you truly want

You CAN expect from the show:

Tools to be more efficient in your daily life
Tips of how to not sacrifice your dreams when you build the life you want
How to take care of yourself
