Lose Weight For The Last Time

Hey mama---if you've ever said "I'm just not a journaler," this one's for you. 💌 I sat down with Ashley, The Journaling Coach, to talk all things journaling---how it can reconnect you to yourself, release stress, and literally change your life. Whether you haven't touched a journal since middle school or already love a good brain dump, you're going to see journaling in a whole new way after this episode.

Ashley shares how a late-night journaling session after heartbreak turned into her life's work---helping others process, heal, and come home to themselves through writing. Together, we dive into why journaling matters so much for moms, how to start even if it feels awkward, and how this simple daily act can help you drop guilt, reclaim joy, and remember who you are beyond motherhood.

Here's what we talk about:  

• Why journaling is one of the fastest ways to get out of your head and into your heart  
• How writing helps you uncover subconscious stories and rewire your brain  
• The truth about why so many moms avoid journaling---and how to rebuild trust with yourself  
• Ashley's favorite go-to prompts (including the life-changing one: "What do I need more of?")  
• How journaling and fun go hand-in-hand (yes, healing can actually be FUN!)  
• The difference between brain dumping and prompted writing---and when to use each  
• Why giving yourself permission to write imperfectly is a radical act of self-care

And you'll hear me talk about my new favorite challenge: "Felt Guilty, Did It Anyway." Because when we model self-care and wholeness, we show our kids that love doesn't mean disappearing---it means being fully alive.

You know how I always say that restriction doesn't work for weight loss? Well, it turns out it doesn't work for money either. Germaine and I jam on all the sneaky money traps we fall into as women and moms --- and how we can finally free ourselves from them.

I sat down with my friend Germaine Foley, a total money queen who teaches women how to build wealth without restriction, deprivation, or overwhelm. You're going to be obsessed.

Germaine used to have over $200K in debt, and now she's completely turned it around. She shares how she built wealth without giving up lattes, vacations, or joy (yes, please!). Her approach --- the Do Both Method --- is all about building wealth and enjoying life at the same time.

Here's what we dive into:\

• The invisible bars that keep us stuck in money cages
• Why "just make more money" isn't actually the solution
• How crash diets and strict budgets are basically the same trap
• The mindset shift to do both --- live now and build for later
• How to align your spending with what actually matters to you
• My favorite takeaway: money needs attention, but not obsession (like a good partner!)
• Germaine's 3-account system that makes managing money simple and fun
• How to stop ignoring your finances --- and start feeling empowered by them
• Why spending on yourself isn't selfish --- it's smart, powerful, and necessary

I seriously got so fired up during this convo because the parallels between money and weight loss are wild. Both are about intention, not punishment. Attention, not restriction. Freedom, not perfection.

If you're ready to change your relationship with money (and honestly, your whole life), go check out Germaine's free private podcast

Or if you're like, "I need this woman in my life," book a consult with her.

This one's for every woman who's ever felt like slowing down isn't safe. Laura sits down with the incredible Krista Williams---cofounder of Almost 30, host of Morning Microdose, and author of Almost 30: A Definitive Guide to a Life You Love---to talk about what it really means to live in your divine feminine.

They dive into the tension so many of us feel between hustle and flow, between doing and receiving, and how to finally find balance between the masculine and feminine within us. Krista shares her journey from burnout and body shame to grounded self-trust, feminine embodiment, and a deeper relationship with God. Together, they explore how surrendering control can actually create more success, pleasure, and peace.

This is an episode about trusting your body, letting go of the rulebooks, and finding safety in softness---even when it feels rebellious. You'll walk away with a whole new understanding of feminine energy, worthiness, and what freedom can look like when you stop trying to earn it.

You'll hear:

• What the divine feminine really means (and why it's not weakness)
• How to find safety in rest, softness, and slowness
• Why balancing masculine and feminine energy leads to more creativity and ease
• The truth about healing your body image and ending the "thin = lovable" lie

Okay mamas, this one is FUN—you get my hubby Brian on the pod! 🙌 We’re diving into a hilarious (and kind of eye-opening) story from the first week of school that showed me just how differently moms and dads experience guilt. 

I was over here spiraling with full-on *mom guilt* for missing my son’s first day of kindergarten… meanwhile, Brian casually admits he didn’t feel guilty at all for missing our daughter’s big day. Like, what?! 😂 

So in this episode we’re breaking it all down—why moms carry the emotional load, why dads seem totally unbothered, and what we can actually *learn* from them about letting go of guilt. 

You’ll hear us laugh, tease, and keep it totally real about:

• Why dads often skip the guilt trip altogether  
• How our cultural “codes” shape what we think parenting *should* look like  
• Why trusting our partners (and our kids!) can free us up big time  
• How letting our kids feel their feelings is actually a gift  
• What happens when we stop trying to be everywhere, every time  

This convo is equal parts juicy, lighthearted, and freeing. If you’ve ever felt weighed down by mom guilt, I promise this will leave you laughing and breathing easier. And if you’re ready to really practice ditching the guilt (plus people-pleasing and perfectionism), come join me inside Free the Moms—we’re doing the work daily, live or on demand, and it’s already pure magic. ✨  

If you’ve ever felt resentment, overwhelm, or crushing mom guilt, this episode is your reminder that freedom is possible. And if you want to go deeper in uncaging yourself from guilt, people-pleasing, and perfectionism, come join us inside Free the Moms. We’re meeting daily (yes, live or on demand!) to ground, reset, and actually practice putting ourselves first. Because your peace is priceless—and your kids deserve a mom with a full cup.

This episode is going to light you up! I’m joined by three incredible clients—Tory, Blair, and Kelly—who are sharing their real-life experiences with the Morning Magic ritual inside the Freedom Moms Membership. This practice may only take 8 minutes, but the ripple effects? Absolutely life-changing.

You’ll hear how these women went from feeling overwhelmed, perfectionistic, and constantly “on the waves” of life to feeling grounded, intentional, and focused. They share how just a few minutes of journaling, breathwork, and setting intentions each morning has transformed not only their own lives but also their relationships, their families, and even their work.

Listen in to learn:

• How to create mornings that actually fuel your day (even with a busy job or little ones at home!)
• Why letting go of perfectionism creates MORE peace, energy, and freedom
• The surprising wins these moms experienced—from launching businesses to enjoying dinner out with their husbands again
• Why you really do have the answers within you (and how to access them daily)
• The exact prompts that helped them shift from frantic to focused, spiraling to present, and outward to inward

If you’ve ever thought, “My mornings are too chaotic for this,” this episode is proof that you can make it work. All it takes is a few minutes—and the results are pure magic.

God has a plan—and in this wild, soul-stirring convo, Nicole and I are breaking it down with our signature ADHD energy, humor, and heart. From $60k IRS bills that turned into unexpected blessings, to realizing that rejection is just redirection, this episode is a reminder that we don’t have to carry it all or control it all.

If you’ve ever obsessed over the “how,” felt like life was spinning out of control, or wondered if you’re just a little “delusional” for choosing to see the good—this one’s for you. Together, we unpack why it’s powerful to believe that God (or the universe, Spirit, Source—whatever resonates) is in every single detail. Because when we let go of control, we find freedom.

Tune in to hear:

• Why saying “this is for me” can change how we handle life’s curveballs
• Nicole’s perspective on atheism, dating, and finding Spirit everywhere
• My real-life $60,000 IRS scare and what it taught me about trust
• The cage of control and what freedom really looks like
• Why letting go of the “how” is the ultimate spiritual practice

Hey mama—this one is powerful. Meet Jennifer, one of my incredible clients who went from feeling completely depleted to living a life that feels free, vibrant, and so full of joy. She’s lost 65 pounds (yes, 65!)—but more importantly, she’s found true happiness and energy she didn’t even know was possible.

And the best part? It started with a tiny daily practice she didn’t even want to do at first: journaling.

If you’ve ever thought “ugh, journaling is not for me,” this episode might just change your mind. Jennifer takes us inside her journey—how she resisted at first, how she built a colorful stack of journals anyway, and how those few intentional minutes each morning rewired her thoughts, shifted her energy, and completely transformed her life.

You’ll hear about:

• The journaling hack that made it simple and fun (no long, dramatic diary entries required!)
• Why writing just a few words a day can reprogram your brain toward success
• How Jennifer went from sad, tired, and depleted to energized, confident, and free
• Why choosing your future self—over and over—is the secret to real transformation
• The unexpected byproducts of her weight loss (hint: it’s about way more than the scale)

If you’re ready to stop feeling depleted and start feeling free, this conversation will light you up.

The Yummy Mummy Podcast is evolving, babes. Welcome to Free the Moms—a new chapter, a new mission, and honestly, the most personal one I’ve ever shared.

This first episode is raw, real, and probably the most vulnerable I’ve ever been on the mic. I tell the story of why this podcast had to shift.

Here’s the truth: my mom did everything “right.” She was the "Pinterest mom" before Pinterest existed—holidays, snacks, PTO, all of it. But she never put herself on the list. And the toll of that? It’s heartbreaking. I share what happened, why I believe we have to stop disappearing from our own lives, and how this work is about healing not just for us—but for generations.

This episode is your cautionary tale and your permission slip. Permission to say yes to yourself. To finally put yourself on the list. To stop playing by the outdated motherhood rulebook. To wake up excited for your day, and go to bed feeling fulfilled.

Hit play to hear:

• Why I’m rebranding to Free the Moms (and what it means for YOU)
• The deeply personal story of my mom’s mental health battle
• The cautionary tale of what happens when moms never put themselves first
• How generational healing plays into this mission
• What “freedom” really means in everyday mom life
• The challenge I’m creating for you to finally end mom guilt

This is just the beginning. We’re doing this journey together—skipping, galloping, trampoline-jumping our way to freedom. I want to hear from you: DM me on Instagram @lauraconleycoaching, reply to my emails, tell me what’s resonating. This isn’t me talking at you—it’s us, side by side, freeing ourselves together.

And babe, don’t miss the free challenge coming soon: The End of Your Mom Guilt Era. Follow me on IG for all the details, because this is the moment we stop waiting and start living.

I love you. Welcome to Free the Moms. Let’s go. 💖

Hey mama! Ever promised yourself you’d finally stick to your plan—only to have vacation or family gatherings derail everything? 🙋‍♀️ In today’s episode, I’m giving you a front-row seat to a real live coaching session with Amy, a tapping practitioner navigating menopause weight gain, family trips, and allll the temptations (ice cream, baklava, cookies—you name it).

You’ll hear exactly how we uncover the sneaky thoughts and old patterns keeping her stuck—and create powerful strategies on the spot to help her follow through on her plan with confidence and calm.

What we talk about:

• Why willpower isn’t the answer—and what to use instead
• How to create a “vacation protocol” you actually feel good about
• The secret to managing temptation without white-knuckling it
• How to rewire decades of conditioning around food and family
• Why having a strong “why” makes following your plan so much easier

If you’ve ever felt like your brain has two voices—the one saying “just this once won’t matter” and the one saying “but I want my future self more”—this episode will be a game changer. You’ll learn how to manage both voices, stop self-sabotage, and honor your commitments to yourself (without shame or judgment).

P.S. If this episode resonates, I’d love it if you left a review! It helps so, so much. 💖 And if you’re ready to take this deeper, come join me inside the Yummy Mummy Experience, where coaching, community, and accountability come together to help you finally lose weight for the last time. 👉 lauraconley.com/lose
