008: BESTIE CHAT: Why you need to wake up BEFORE the kids

32 minutes

FIRST BESTIE CHAT!!! I am SO excited for you to meet one of my best friends, Stephanie Lamson. This podcast will have the occasional "expert" or two, but I think it's much more fun to chat with mamas RIGHT in the trenches with you who just GET IT.

I couldn't think of a MORE PERFECT person to talk about today's subject with than Steph.

Some of you are literally going to roll your eyes the MOMENT you see today's topic. But I told you that I was going to help you better manage your time and I wasn't kidding.

Momma, you HAVE to get up before the kids.

I KNOW. You're tired. I KNOW. Believe me, I'm tired. I am the FARTHEST thing from a morning person and every morning my alarm clock goes off- I want to throw it through a window. But I adopted this mantra and I say it every single morning: "If you don't get up now, your entire day is off." I say it because it's true. Every single part of that is true.

I want to tell you guys the truth. I HAD to become a morning person. When we get up with our babies, we are already screwed and they OWN US lol. You feel flustered, behind, agitated, worried. You're a mess. The BEST thing you can do for yourself is WIN the day before those little boogers are even awake.

NOTE: If your baby isn't sleeping through the night or is still under 7 months old, this MAY not be for you just yet. You need REST. BUT I do still encourage you to add these habits I'm sharing with you today into your daily routine during a nap. Remember, if you are the last person on your priority list- something is wrong.

Enjoy todays chat!
