Project: Mom Podcast

Emily Gorrie

Project: Mom shares the stories at the heart of the complex intersection of motherhood and entrepreneurship. Emily Gorrie, now a stay at home mom, half expected her life to return to ‘normal’ after her daughter was born. She interviews women in all different stages of business creation and motherhood as well as shares solo episodes that touch on the questions and curiosities at the center of our newfound priorities. How do we as new moms regain our power, our identities as we navigate a society that has certain expectations of us? While we may not have the answer, stick around and you may just find you are not alone in the search.

Welcome to today's episode of the Project Mom podcast. I want to do a special episode today highlighting a book that I just read. It's called Real Self-Care: A Transformative Program for Redefining Wellness (Crystals, Cleanses, and Bubble Baths Not Included). The book was written by Dr. Pooja Lakshmin and in this book, she shares her own personal journey and those of her clients as she outlines for us this very real need for self-care, especially as women who are faced with systemic challenges that are made to keep us small and at the service of others. Throughout the book, she focuses on the fact that real self-care has to originate within, and is ultimately an ongoing internal decision-making process that we need to use every single day in order for our needs to be met. This book has given me hope, and I think it will do the same for you, too!

In today's solo episode, I want to talk about emotions – I want to get curious about them, about the meaning we've given them, and how we show up in our day to day because of them. Emotions influence how we perceive and respond to the world around us, ideally helping us adapt to different situations and make choices that align with our values and goals. So what if emotions weren't negative or positive? What if we removed the meaning we've given these feelings, these emotions, and choose to see them for what they are? Messengers. Let’s talk about it!

Welcome to today's episode of the Project Mom Podcast. Today's solo episode may feel a little bit different than the ones I've previously released, and that's because I want to explore the topic of new dads today. Are we actually supporting them, or are they getting lost in the shuffle? There’s no doubt that this generation of dads is really impressive, they're breaking barriers and going against stereotypes. We're seeing more and more stay-at-home dads and more dads who are choosing to balance family life and work life than we've seen in the past. But with that being said, how can we be grateful, empathize with the work our partners are doing, and still show up for ourselves? Let’s talk about it today on the show.

Life is so much better when you live from the heart.

Today’s guest, Randi Halaway, has helped me do just this and I’m so excited for you to meet her. Randi is a heart-centered soul and business coach who helps women transform chaos into abundance, and she cracks her heart WIDE open in this episode.

As moms, we can be so hard on ourselves – from being afraid to take sacred time for ourselves to showing up for our kids in the way we want to. Sometimes it might feel like we have to be perfect for them, or that we must shield them from hurt.

What if we took that pressure off ourselves and showed up in a way that’s just authentically ourselves?

Randi is the woman who guided me through this rollercoaster journey, from quitting my corporate sales job, launching a business, and having a baby, which was followed by the most difficult year of my life mentally. She provided me with the tools to resettle back into my body to find clarity and peace.

In this conversation, we’ll explore how we can reconnect to our intuition and our heart space.
Resources & Links

Randi has been coaching and supporting women since 2016, helping them create and implement key strategies and organization within their businesses and their lives. She offers one-on-one coaching, courses and a membership called the Heart-Centered Collective. Visit her website and check out her free journal prompts and meditation guide. If you have any questions about her offerings, please feel free to reach out to her (on Facebook, Instagram or TikTok) or to me.
