MWH 495 : Why I Don’t Leave My Husband Lists When I’m Away (And How It’s Helped Me Thrive in Business)

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on one of the most liberating decisions I’ve made as both a wife, mother, and business owner: I don’t leave my husband “to-do” lists when I’m away.

This simple shift has transformed our relationship, our parenting dynamic, and – surprisingly – my business success.

Here’s What You’ll Hear Inside:
✅ Why I stopped micromanaging at home and how it created a more empowered partnership.
✅ How releasing control in parenting helps us thrive as a couple, creating more connection, less resentment, and way more fun.
✅ What our kids learn when both parents lead in their own way (hint: it builds resilience and adaptability!).
✅ How this boundary protects my mental energy so I can show up fully in my business without guilt, distraction, or decision fatigue.
✅ A fresh perspective on what true partnership in life and business actually looks like for us and why you might want to stop leaving lists too.

If you’ve ever felt like the default parent or found yourself exhausted from managing it all, this episode will give you a refreshing mindset shift that could change your life (and your business).

🎧 Listen now and discover how less micromanaging at home can create more freedom, ease, and success in business.
