This week we are chatting with Valerie Friedlander of Unlimited Mom. Valerie is a mom of two young boys, and certified life coach specializing in helping entrepreneurial Moms break though their self-defeating patterns and take confident action towards their goals.
Listen as Valerie shares how:
- She differentiates phases vs. being “stuck”
- Labeling things as “bad” is a self-fulfilling prophecy.
- Arguments are important.
- Where she finds community as both an entrepreneur and mom.
- Motherhood impacted her relationship with her husband.
- Intimacy was drastically affected when she became a mom and steps she’s taking to restoring it.
- She chooses how to show up for herself, kids, and relationship.
