This week, on Hanging with the Haizmans,  we talk about an exciting new challenge I have taken on this year - the 1,000 Hours Outside Challenge. That’s roughly 3 hours outside a day!

This challenge is going to really push me to make getting out of the house a priority. With my 2-year-old daughter, and baby number 2 due in the spring, I am determined to give it my best shot for my own mental health and for the overall wellbeing of my family.

Listen along as we discuss the hurdles we have already faced with the weather (right now in Illinois we are in the negatives!), and with the introduction of a new routine for our toddler (getting full winter gear on a 2-year-old every single day is not for the weak 🤪).

I would absolutely love for you and your family to do the challenge with me! For more information check out 1000hours.com

Have you heard of the five love languages?

If not, the basic concept is when it comes to relationships, we all have our preferred ways of giving and receiving love.

It's safe to say one of Alexander's love languages is quality time. This is something I am guilty of neglecting between working and being a mom. So, with the intention of carving out more time together, (and my love of a good challenge), I gifted him the 52 Dates challenge for 2024!

That means we will prioritize one date night every single week for the whole year! Listen along as we discuss why this means so much to us, keeping the dates unique, and how we envision sticking with it when baby #2 joins us in May!

Today, Alexander and I sit down for the first time to really discuss our opinions and ask each other some compelling questions. Discovering together what aligns best with our goals and values.

Having the motivation to take care of yourself after becoming a parent can feel like a constant uphill battle.

Between being sleep-deprived and a major shift in priorities, it's difficult to remember to set aside time for yourself. After all, you can't pour from an empty cup.

Listen along this week as Alexander and I discuss how we each view and implement self-care now that we are parents.
