Do you want to maximize your productivity and achieve your goals without burning out, or adding more to your already full to-do list as a working mom?
So often as moms we think that being massively productive means that we have to fully book every single minute in our calendars, and live in the #momhustle status 24/7. Well Cara is here to tell you that it doesn’t have to be that way!
In this podcast episode, Kelli chats with Cara Harvey, an amazing mom, former teacher and mom empowerment and productivity coach whose mission is to provide women with the tools, resources, and community to reach their goals, empower themselves, find their happiness, and live a life by design. She does this via her blog, podcast, virtual community groups, and e-courses that help women learn to balance their lives, finances, schedules, health, and themselves!
Kelli talks to Cara all about developing systems and routines as busy moms, so we can take control of our lives, maximize the results we get from our goals and live the life that we’re inspired to live following our purpose.
Cara also shares her journey from wanting to become a teacher to becoming a hands-on mom and an entrepreneur. Cara reminds us how we have to be intentional with what we do and that our mindset must align with our principles and values in life and business.
They also talked about:
05:01 Becoming an entrepreneur
07:06 Dying inside while looking successful
08:43 Helping women around the globe reach their dreams
10:52 Being broke and still thriving
12:07 Imposter Syndrome and bouncing back from it

22:06 Being realistic and intentional

Cara believes that every mom should be empowered to chase after their dreams and goals despite the different circumstances we face in life. She reminds us how to show grace and kindness to ourselves, especially when time gets rough.


Cara is a wife, mom to a 14-year-old stepson, 5-year-old daughter, 3-year-old son, and a woman of God. She works as a mom empowerment coach and her mission is to provide women with the tools, resources, and community to reach their goals, empower themselves, find their happiness, and live a life by design.
