Did you know that even just 10 minutes of daily movement can significantly boost your mood, energy, and long-term health?

 

In this episode, I talk about the real struggle of finding time to exercise in the midst of a busy life filled with work, family, and endless obligations. I share how important it is to shift your mindset, prioritize your health without guilt, and give yourself grace through the ups and downs. I also dive into practical tips like scheduling your workouts like meetings, habit stacking, and finding creative and fun ways to stay active—whether it's dancing, stretching while the coffee brews, or walking during your kid’s practice. The key takeaway? Consistency over perfection. Even micro-movements matter, and making exercise social and enjoyable will help you stick with it.
