In this episode of Cowgirls Over Coffee, we're having an honest conversation about a topic every high-achieving woman needs to tackle: discipline. We all know that feeling of knowing exactly what you need to do but struggling to get it done or being so disciplined that it's actually working against you. Today, we're stripping back the layers and getting curious about what discipline truly means, why it's not about being perfect, and how you can build it as a skill rather than treating it like a fixed part of your identity.

Together with Meg Scales, we break down the myths around discipline, willpower, and focus. We explore why hyper-discipline can be just as damaging as lacking discipline altogether and why curiosity is your secret weapon in developing the self-awareness necessary to make meaningful progress. If you've ever found yourself feeling burnt out, stuck in a cycle of inconsistency, or struggling to figure out why you're not reaching your goals, this conversation is exactly what you need.

Key Takeaways:

The reality of discipline: It’s a skill you can build, not something you’re either born with or without
Why being “overly disciplined” can sabotage your success and how to strike a healthy balance
How to identify and plug the energy leaks in your life that are holding you back
The role of curiosity and self-compassion in creating discipline that supports your goals
Practical strategies to develop adaptable discipline so you can finally move forward with intention and clarity

Whether you’re someone who prides yourself on being disciplined or you’re struggling to find any consistency at all, this conversation is packed with actionable insights, practical strategies, and raw reflections that will help you take charge of your next steps. It’s time to stop letting discipline be a barrier (or an excuse!) and start using it as a tool to create the life you want.

Balance Isn’t a Myth, It’s a Skill: Strategies for Thriving in Challenging Seasons 46:25

منذ عام واحد46:25

46:25

Finding balance in life’s toughest seasons is about more than simply managing a to-do list, it’s about strengthening the skills and mindsets that allow you to thrive, even when everything feels chaotic. In this episode, Jill Carr and Meg Scales join the conversation to unpack what it means to navigate high demands with grace, curiosity, and a touch of stubbornness. Join us for a conversation about how to balance multiple high-demand roles, redefining your relationship with expectations, and embracing life’s ebb and flow while trusting yourself. Highlights from this candid discussion include: Why February feels harder and how to avoid burnout during short, intense months. The power of curiosity in place of self-criticism for overcoming overwhelm. Strategies for shifting from “winging it” to deliberate planning to create control amid chaos. How prioritizing flexibility, reflection, and self-awareness leads to sustainable success. Daily practices that help you manage competing demands without sacrificing yourself. Key Quotes: “When we feel out of balance, it’s a signal - it’s a systems check, not a failure.” “Balance is less about the system and more about who we’re becoming in the process.” “Curiosity and stubbornness, where they meet, that’s where the magic happens.” “The actions you take aren’t the skill. The skill is in the ability to understand what actions are needed next .” “You don’t figure out balance once; you strengthen the skill of figuring it out every day.” Actionable Insights: Track Your Time : Understand how long tasks actually take to reduce overwhelm and plan more effectively. Ask Yourself: What Can I Do for My Tomorrow Self? : Small actions today can set you up for success tomorrow. Challenge Yourself to Quit Winging It : Plan deliberately, even in small areas like meal prep or scheduling, to create space and ease. Engage and Share: What resonated with you?

Why romanticizing your life with monthly aesthetics can boost productivity and joy. Strategies to navigate February’s unique challenges, like losing two whole days!

This episode offers a direct approach to monthly planning that works. Providing you with a clear, actionable system to plan your month, stay intentional, and actually feel good about how you’re spending your time. Whether you’re juggling business, family, or just trying to keep your head above water, these strategies will help you slow down, focus on what matters, and feel like you’re in control.

This week’s episode digs right into the messy middle of January, a time when the spark of New Year’s goals can feel overshadowed by life’s chaos and demands. This conversation with Thea & Meg tackles the reality of starting a new year amidst change, unpredictability, and the lingering feeling of being “behind.” Explore the mindset shifts and strategies that high-achieving women can use to embrace change, lean into the discomfort of growth, and redefine their expectations for success. From finding clarity in the chaos to integrating family, work, and personal priorities, this episode offers actionable insights for balancing ambition with presence. Tune in for candid reflections, powerful reframes, and practical advice to help set the tone for 2025 with intention and purpose. What We Consider in this Episode: Leaning Into the Seasonal Cadence: How January and February offer a natural invitation for reflection, planning, and resetting priorities. Reframing the Feeling of Being “Behind”: Turning the discomfort of falling short of expectations into a catalyst for growth and clarity. Integrating Life and Goals: Strategies for weaving work, family, and personal goals into a cohesive and balanced vision. Releasing Unhealthy Expectations: Recognizing and letting go of self-imposed pressures that drain joy and hinder progress. The Power of Rituals and Reflection: Creating meaningful habits and traditions, like Meg’s winter solstice ritual, to anchor growth and connection. Finding Ease in the Hard Seasons: Embracing the full range of human experiences (both challenges and triumphs) and finding strength in the process. Key Takeaways: January is not a race, it’s an invitation to slow down, reflect, and set intentional goals. Feeling “behind” can be a sign of ambition, reframe it as an opportunity for clarity and alignment. Integration, not compartmentalization, is key to balancing family, work, and personal priorities. Let go of unhealthy expectations and focus on what truly matters in your unique season of life. Rituals and intentional pauses, like seasonal reflection, create space for growth and connection.

How to set and execute three initiatives —multi-step goals that drive long-term impact. Why five resolutions can strengthen habits and actions to support your biggest goals. The role of ten practices —daily or weekly routines that sustain energy, clarity, and performance. How to embrace patience, consistency, and the compound effect to stay motivated during the "invisible" stages of progress. A clear breakdown of how to align your goals with seasons: planning and priming in winter, progress in spring and fall, and restoration in summer and the holidays.

51. How to Prioritize Yourself while Balancing a High-Demand Lifestyle 29:39

منذ عام واحد29:39

29:39

Today's conversation is actually a throwback that we felt needed a quick replay before fully shifting into the holiday season. I'm sitting down with Meg Scales to dive into the tough yet essential topic of self-prioritization in high-demand lifestyles. Whether you're balancing ranch life, a growing business, a family, or (most likely!) all of the above - you know that "putting yourself first" isn't as easy as it sounds. In this episode, Meg and I break down what prioritizing yourself really looks like in the midst of chaos, stress, and competing demands. Together, we get honest about the cost of self-care and how to shift from burnout to balance. You'll hear practical strategies for managing time, avoiding overwhelm, and why the "empty cup" analogy doesn't even scratch the surface. We also dig into the hard questions: What are you willing to give up? What's holding you back from prioritizing yourself? And how do you manage the constant pressure to "do it all" without losing yourself in the process? This episode is packed with raw honesty, tough love, and insights that will have you rethinking how you manage your day-to-day. If you've ever felt like you're drowning in responsibilities, this conversation is for you. Key Takeaways: Why self-prioritization isn’t just about “me time” but about reducing stress and aligning with your values How to break down the overwhelm and get real about what’s truly taking up your mental and emotional bandwidth The power of simple conversations and mindset shifts to reclaim your time and capacity Why figuring it out and working it out are two different things—and how to move from awareness to action If this episode resonates with you, make sure to subscribe, rate, and leave a review.
