EP454 // Time Blocking for Busy Moms: How to Pursue Big Dreams (Like Writing a Book) Without Burnout With Guest Susan Marie Almquist
Episode 478
Tuesday, 7 April, 2026
If you’ve ever felt torn between wanting to live a meaningful, purpose-filled life and the very real demands of work, family, and responsibility, today’s episode is for you. So many women I talk to aren’t lacking motivation or vision—they’re just stretched thin, trying to figure out how to pursue the things God has placed on their hearts without burning out or feeling like they’re constantly behind. Today, I’m joined by a truly inspiring guest, Susan Marie Almquist, and I’m so excited to share this conversation with you. Susan Marie is a former attorney turned entrepreneur, a mom, and the author of the beautiful book Make Life Matter More. After years in law and leadership, she now serves as the Chief Growth Officer at MyCORE, a company built around people-first values—and she brings that same heart into her writing and everyday life. In this episode, we talk honestly about what it looks like to pursue meaningful dreams—like writing a book—in the cracks of real life. We dive into time blocking, intentional living, and how to make space for what matters most without adding more pressure to your plate. Susan Marie shares her journey through motherhood, leadership, seasons of transition, and how small, faithful choices can lead to a life that feels aligned, grounded, and full. This is a thoughtful, encouraging conversation about slowing down, paying attention, and choosing purpose over autopilot—especially in busy seasons. So grab your coffee or tea, settle in, and let’s dive in.
