Breaking Free from Busy: Empowering Moms to Prioritize Writing

In this episode of 'Mom Writes First,' host Jen Larimore, a mom of five and a lawyer turned life coach writing her first book, addresses the common obstacle of feeling too busy to pursue personal goals, specifically writing. Jen stresses the importance of moms making time for their passions, not just for self-care but to set a positive example for their children. She introduces cognitive behavioral theory to illustrate how the thought 'I'm too busy' is a self-imposed barrier that leads to feelings of overwhelm and prevents action. Through a series of exploratory questions, Jen guides listeners to challenge their limiting beliefs around busyness, urging them to redefine their priorities in alignment with their values and passions for writing. She encourages seeking coaching for deeper exploration and offers resources through her website and Instagram to support moms in reclaiming time for their creative endeavors.
