About our Guest:
Crystal Escobar is a mother, author, entrepreneur, blogger, and podcaster and a wannabe balanced mom. When Crystal first became a mom she wondered if she could be there for her kids and be there for herself. She started exploring her quest for balance in 2010 and now she helps other moms find purpose and balance. She now juggles her blog, podcast, business, and four kids, sharing her journey along the way.
Episode Summary:
This is Part 3 of our Results NOT Resolutions series. Today, I am joined by Crystal Escobar an author and entrepreneur who says, "we cannot live our life based on shoulds." Today's focus is on the space pillar which is all about setting up your life to support you. We talk about achieving balance and when to let things go. We talk about how it is okay to ask for help and how creating a list with 30-minute intervals can help get things done and about why it’s critical to let things go and not worry about the expectations of others.
CLIFF NOTES
Don't live your life based on “shoulds” and trying to manage the expectations of others.
Harmony can be an upgrade to balance. It's okay to have your own goals and aspirations and try to achieve balance in your life.
Sometimes you have to let expectations go and accept that having kids means that sometimes your house will be messy and unorganized.
Be organized and set up your workspace, so that you can focus on what you're doing and not be distracted by clutter around you.
Multitasking and trying to do more than one project at a time will actually cost you time in the long run.
To be productive, create a 30-minute list. List things you need to get done and use a timer to work on each item.
It’s okay to set time aside for yourself and your work and get help or outsource some of the household stuff.
