Mom Boss Mode: Navigating PR and Parenthood Like a Pro

By: Tracy Asencio

As a new mom in a demanding Marketing industry, I’ve learned a thing or two about managing the hustle of work while simultaneously cherishing the big and small moments that come with motherhood. While it’s never easy, it’s totally worth it! Anything is possible if you believe, right? For me, the key is to always have a game plan.

Here are some tricks that keep me at the top of my game at work and in motherhood:

Stay organized:

My days are a mix of work blocks and mini breaks for cuddles. Apps, planners, and written To-Do lists are my sidekicks, keeping deadlines and my little one’s schedule in sync.

Prioritize like a pro:

I’ve become a ninja at sorting tasks. I focus on what’s urgent, and I’m
learning to delegate and shamelessly decline the rest.

Be all in:

Whether it’s drafting emails or playing peekaboo, I give my all. Minimizing distractions at work and at home helps me savor each moment.

Flexibility is my mantra:

Parenthood is full of surprises, so I roll with it. Being adaptable and forgiving with myself keeps me sane.

Setting boundaries:

Carving out “Me Time” is non-negotiable. Whether it’s sneaking moments throughout the day to take a walk, sit in silence, or dedicating certain blocks of time for my self- care, it allows me to come back and attack the workday and motherhood in a better, happier way.

There’s no perfect formula for this journey and I don’t always get it right, but with a bit of organization, some savvy prioritization, and being intentional about my self-care, I’m finding my rhythm, and you will too. We’ve got this! #mamaonthego
