52. How to Stay Motivated When Your Plate Is Overflowing

If your to-do list feels never-ending and motivation is hard to find, this episode is for you. Today, we’re diving into real-life, grace-filled strategies to help you stay motivated when you’re overwhelmed, tired, or just over it. You’ll learn how to shift your mindset, simplify your routines, and work with your energy instead of against it.

We talk about:

• The psychology behind motivation and how your upbringing, personality, and values shape it
  
  
• How to identify your why and use it as a compass for your daily choices
  
  
• The power of managing your energy, not just your time
  
  
• Anchoring small tasks to daily rhythms to make life feel lighter
  
  
• Creating an environment (or “ecosystem”) that helps you thrive
  
  
• What to do when you just don’t want to do the thing—cleaning, cooking, appointments, etc.
  
  
• How mindset and language shifts can unlock motivation in hard moments
  

Whether you’re driven by outcomes, rewards, or rhythms, you’ll walk away with fresh perspective, practical tips, and permission to do it differently this season. Remember: less is more, and you don’t have to do it all. Let’s figure out what actually works for you.
