253: The 9 Pillars of Self-Assured Motherhood

Author: Cloud10 September 19, 2022 Duration: 39:17
ANNOUNCEMENT: If you've been listening to my show for the past couple of months, you know that I am in the middle of launching the second round of my nine-month program which is called Self-Assured Motherhood. This program only opens once a year, and I don't want any moms who need it to miss out on hearing about it and have to wait another entire year before they can sign up. Enrollment closes this Friday, September 23rd. I'm hopeful that today's episode will give you the push you need to sign up if you've been on the fence.  Go to selfassuredmotherhood.com to learn more and to sign up before Friday Sept 23 at midnight. If you are listening to this episode on the day it comes, I do have one more live masterclass I am teaching tomorrow, Tuesday, at 1:00 pm MST where I will walk you through a detailed self-assessment to see how you are doing in each one of these areas.  Sign up for the free class at 3in30podcast.com/freeclass.  *** The nine-month program is built around nine pillars of Self-Assured Motherhood (we study one per month), and today you are going to get a taste of each of those pillars through the stories of some of the alumni of my program. I did little mini-interviews with these women and asked them to share one personal experience from their life that illustrates how they are embodying one of the core principles of self-assured motherhood.  "For full show notes, including the three takeaways, go to https://3in30podcast.com/253-pillars-of-self-assured-motherhood *** Episode sponsors: BetterHelp: Use the code 3in30 to get 10% off your first month of online therapy!

Motherhood often feels like a constant juggling act, leaving little time for lengthy advice or complicated strategies. That’s the exact gap that 3 in 30 Takeaways for Moms fills. Each episode is built on a simple, powerful premise: delivering three practical, doable takeaways within a half-hour. Host Rachel Nielson, who brings her perspective as a mother, teacher, and writer, understands that a busy parent’s brain is already full. She curates conversations and shares insights that cut straight to what’s useful, focusing on real-world application over theory. You’ll hear discussions rooted in the daily realities of family life, covering everything from educational activities for kids and navigating family dynamics to personal well-being amidst the beautiful chaos. This isn’t about adding more to your to-do list, but about finding smarter, more peaceful ways to manage what’s already there. The tone is consistently encouraging, aiming to replace overwhelm with a sense of capability and even magic. Tuning into this podcast feels like a coffee chat with a knowledgeable friend who leaves you with clear, actionable steps-not just more noise. It’s a resource for any mom looking to gather concrete ideas for parenting, personal growth, and creating a more harmonious home, all within the span of a daily commute or a folded laundry pile.
