The Energy Leadership Index (ELI) for Overwhelmed Moms

The Energy Leadership Index (ELI) is a unique assessment that helps moms understand how their thoughts, emotions, and energy levels shape their daily experiences—especially in the chaos of motherhood. It’s not a personality test that labels you; it’s a mirror that reflects how you typically show up in life and how stress impacts your mindset.

Why It Matters for Moms

Motherhood can feel like a constant balancing act, leaving you exhausted, frustrated, or like you’ve lost yourself in the process. The ELI helps you:

  • Recognize your default energy patterns - are you running on stress and survival mode, or feeling calm and in control?
  • Identify what’s draining you and how to shift into a mindset that brings more ease and fulfillment.
  • Gain tools to respond rather than react, so you can handle tantrums, chaos, and never-ending to-do lists with more confidence and clarity.

How the ELI Works

The ELI measures seven levels of energy, from draining, stressful emotions to empowering, freeing perspectives:

  1. Overwhelmed & Defeated – “I can’t do this. I’m failing.”
  2. Frustrated & Resentful – “No one helps me. Why is everything on me?”
  3. Coping & Managing – “I’ll just get through the day.”
  4. Caring & Supporting – “I want to show up with love and patience.”
  5. Empowered & Optimistic – “Challenges help me grow.”
  6. Flow & Joy – “I trust myself and enjoy the moment.”
  7. Inner Peace & Freedom – “I can handle anything with ease.”

What This Means for You

Most moms bounce between different levels throughout the day, but stress often pulls them into the lower levels (frustration, exhaustion, self-doubt). The ELI shows you where you are and how you can shift into more peace, patience, and confidence.

What You’ll Walk Away With

  • Awareness of how your energy impacts your parenting, relationships, and self-care.
  • Strategies to stop reacting out of stress and start responding with intention.
  • A new way of seeing challenges—not as roadblocks, but as opportunities to reclaim your identity through motherhood.

In Simple Terms:

The ELI is like a GPS for your mindset - it shows you where you are, what’s draining you, and how to shift into a more empowered, peaceful version of yourself to embark on the path YOU want to travel.
