INTRO: My name is Amy Lynch and in today's solo episode I'm going to be sharing why my advocacy work paused last year when life went a bit sideways.

Trigger warning: I will be discussing a car accident and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) – please skip over this one if you need to. If you or someone you know has experienced an injury like this, I will be covering strategies I’ve used, resources I’ve found and links for organizations which can help you, in the show notes.

THINGS I TALK ABOUT:

• Why the podcast took another mini-break over the past month and how it relates to what I've been learning about TBI
• The importance of asking for help, letting things go, adjusting my expectations and practicing self-compassion
• When a good "no" is better than a bad "yes"
• The non-profit organization and programming from Ontario Brain Injury Association (OBIA)
• All of the good ways I’ve discovered how my flexible and remote work with kids toolkit, processes, mindset and support network have helped me over the past year because I believe it can help you too
• Strategies numbered 1 through 7 to support you when life goes sideways and you have young kids to look after – most of these can be implemented straight away and are free!
• Previous solo episodes to inspire, encourage and provide practical actions for you during your adventures and experiences with mixing babies and business (EP 45 Baby In The Boardroom Parentpreneur, EP 54 Remote Work With Kids, EP 61 Hosting Events With Kids, EP 70 Pitching And Presenting With Kids, EP 80 Podcasting With Kids, EP 89 Becoming An Activist And Social Changemaker)

Season 6 is sponsored by the Mixing Babies And Business Changemaker Program – for people who want to do things differently, create an impact and advocate for primary caregivers and their families along the way: mixingbabiesandbusiness.com/changemaker
