Welcome to Episode 98. Being Present As A Mom And A High Achieving Direct Sales Leader.  I am Tammy Meyer and I’m so grateful you’re here.  First things first, let’s talk about mom status. Maybe you have grown kids. You may have young kiddos like me. My boys at the time of this recording, are 6 years old and 17 months.  You may have tweens, teens, or young adults that really really still need you just in different ways than they did when they were younger.  Maybe you’ve made the choice to not have kiddos.  And it’s not lost on me for one second, not for one breath,  that you may not be a mom and you may desperately want to be a mom. I have been there. Or maybe you are a mom but so badly want to grow your family.  Will you stay here with me please and keep listening?  And if you’re overcome with emotion right now I get that. I have also been there. Oh, have I been there. I just want to say you’re in a safe space here. And I hope you’ll stay with me and keep listening. I’ll explain why in a few seconds. Either way, you can find the full transcript at crazybigdreams.biz/98. Whatever your situation may be, I guarantee you have team members who are moms with kids ranging in all ages. And you even have team members that aren’t moms, have decided not to be moms, or desperately want to be moms. And this episode today will help you as their leader. I hope it will help you personally, as well. This topic today came about from my last episode number 97. The 18-minute Power Hour For Savvy Direct Sales Leaders.  In episode 97 I talked about multi-tasking and life and work and kids and anxiety. If you haven’t listened yet you can find the episode at crazybigdreams.biz/97.  Today I want to take that conversation a bit further.  Many leaders work to help their emerging leaders do their business in the pockets of the day.  This can mean different things to different people. What one leader defines as a pocket of opportunity during her day and what another defines as a pocket of opportunity can look very different.  What I’ve found with all the savvy, successful, high-achieving women that I’ve worked with are two common threads.  One, anxiety is a thing. It’s totally a thing. It’s there. It’s common. It’s experienced by so so many. You may even navigate it yourself. I guarantee you have women and moms on your team who are navigating anxiety.  The second theme I’ve noticed is this. Working in the pockets of the day, especially for those with kids is creating scenarios of ineffective multitasking and it’s not helping those navigating anxiety.  Is this everyone? Certainly not.  Is it many? Yes.  As a savvy leader, you can be armed with great information and strategies to help your leaders this does apply to.  For the full episode and my strategies on being present as a mom and a high-achieving leader go to crazybigdreams.biz/98.
