The Weekday Woman Blog
If you’ve ever balanced Zoom calls with laundry duty, grocery shopped while answering emails, or run errands between track meets and dance recitals, this is for you. Perhaps during school drop-offs, you googled "can stress burn calories?" — Congratulations, you’ve found your people. (For 20 years, my life felt like a run-on sentence that never ended…) But I digress.
This is your weekday sanctuary. A space for smart shortcuts, mindset upgrades, and permission slips to ditch perfection. We believe in doing what matters, finding peace and laughing when things fall apart (because they will), and embracing the magic in the mayhem.
Here’s what we don’t do:
❌ Glorify burnout
❌ Worship busyness
❌ Pretend we’re not reheating the same cup of coffee for the third time
Here’s what we do instead:
✅ Make weekdays work FOR you, not the other way around
✅ Find joy in the juggle
✅ Cheer for progress over perfection — and celebrate wins both big and bite-sized (yes, getting dressed counts)
So pour that coffee again (judgment-free zone here), slide into your power flats or fuzzy socks, and let’s navigate this wild, wonderful “weekday world” together.
Because here at The Weekday Woman, we don’t just face the week—we flip it, finesse it, and help you finish it.
