In this episode, Shannon welcomes Christine Landis, founder of Peacock Parent, to discuss the transformative journey of prioritizing self-care and outsourcing "low-joy tasks" to enhance family life and personal well-being. Christine shares how a friend's advice led her to enlist help from a newborn care specialist and night nurse, paving the way for her concept of the Peacock Parent. She emphasizes the importance of outsourcing mundane tasks, like bath time, to focus on what truly brings joy. By running her home like a business, Christine highlights the value of investing in yourself. Together, they discuss creative solutions for families with limited resources and challenge societal norms that frown upon mothers taking time for themselves. Christine's message is clear: buying back your time is a vital investment in joy and presence, ultimately benefiting the whole family. Shannon shares her recent return to full-time work and how outsourcing lawn care has improved her family's dynamic. Tune in to explore practical tips and inspirational insights on reclaiming your time and energy.

About Christine:
When Christine Landis became a mom 5 years ago, she naturally leaned into the luxury of time in parenthood. As a former CEO, she was accustomed to striving for efficiency, delegating, and focusing on the bottom line. She decided to do the same in parenthood and make MORE JOY the ultimate “profit” and treat time as a currency. At Peacock Parent, she applies the “time is money” principle to parenthood so that busy executive parents can proudly buy more time to enjoy the good life they’ve worked so hard to build.

In this episode, Shannon dives deep into the transformative power of mindset shifts, especially for moms juggling multiple roles, with snippets from the 2024 Tune In and Tune Up Workshop.
