As working moms, we juggle so much—careers, families, relationships, and personal goals. It’s easy to feel like real change is out of reach.

But here’s the thing: the problem isn’t that you’re not trying hard enough. It’s that most of us focus on what we do—our habits or routines—without addressing what’s driving them.

The truth is, lasting change doesn’t come from doing more. It comes from understanding the why behind your actions. Without addressing what’s happening beneath the surface, it’s like trying to fix a leaky faucet by mopping the floor.
