💥 In This Episode, We Cover:
✅ Why burnout isn’t a badge of honor
✅ How daily movement, sleep, and protein are productivity tools
✅ Why your mindset—not your willpower—is the missing link
✅ How “dancing with guilt” can shift your entire perspective
✨ 3 Big Takeaways
Start where you are, not where you “should” be. Your current season of life matters.
Sustainability > perfection. A little progress done consistently beats all-or-nothing.
Healthy moms model healthy mindsets. What your kids need isn’t your six-pack—it’s your presence.
🛠️ Mini Homework:
Pick one small habit that you can start this week that supports your health—whether it’s adding a veggie to lunch, drinking more water, or going for a walk while your kids scooter beside you. Don’t aim for perfect—aim for possible.
Then ask: What’s the thought that’s been stopping me—and how can I reframe it?
Just like Esther said, mindset leads everything else.
