Mommas And Manis

WE MADE IT TO DAY 100! 🎉💕

After 100 days of intentionally making space for ourselves, we’re closing out our 100 Days of Self-Care with one of our favorite reminders: “To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift.” — Steve Prefontaine.

For Days 94–100, we’re ending this journey with FUN, friendship, celebration, and a little treating ourselves! We’re planning a moms-only game night, taking fun selfies and celebrating ourselves, starting a monthly “Treat Yourself”tradition, making homemade mocktails, and planning a mini staycation with our mom friends.

We’re also creating a tradition of celebrating our “Mom Wins” every month—because the little victories deserve some love too. And for Day 100? Nothing complicated. Just sit together, laugh, and enjoy the moment.

As we wrap up these 100 days, the goal isn’t to stop practicing self-care. Take the ideas that worked for you, make them part of your routine, and remember that taking care of yourself deserves a permanent place on the calendar. 💕🥂

We’re getting close to the finish line of our 100 Days of Self-Care, and Days 87–93 are a reminder that taking care of yourself can mean resting, reflecting, AND having some fun!

Inspired by the quote, “The competition is against the little voice inside you that wants to quit,” we’re challenging ourselves to keep going while also giving ourselves permission to slow down. This week, we’re trying a “rest without guilt” challenge, sending self-care reminders to our mom friends, making a list of reasons we’re proud of ourselves, and creating accountability around taking care of our mental health.

Then it’s time for some FUN! 💕 We’re hosting karaoke night, throwing a themed pajama party, and even attempting a few TikTok dance challenges together. Because sometimes self-care is doing the deeper emotional work, and sometimes it’s laughing with your girls while completely messing up a dance routine. 😂

Only seven days left in our 100-day journey!

We’re making our way toward the finish line of our 100 Days of Self-Care, and Days 80–86 are all about taking care of ourselves emotionally and creating spaces where moms can feel supported.

Inspired by John Bingham’s reminder that sometimes the real miracle is simply having the courage to start, we begin by getting outside and visiting a farmers market together. Then we shift our focus to emotional and mental wellness by starting a safe-space moms support group, sharing our weekly highs and lows, and practicing saying positive affirmations out loud.

We’re also writing encouraging notes to one another, creating a no-judgment venting circle, and making it a point to celebrate our small wins every week. Because self-care isn’t always a spa day or a vacation. Sometimes it’s having a safe place to say, “This week was hard,” having someone listen without judgment, and remembering to celebrate how far you’ve come. 💕🌿

We’re continuing our 100 Days of Self-Care journey with Days 73–79, and this week we’re taking self-care outside! 🌿 Sometimes a little sunshine, fresh air, and time away from our normal routines is exactly what we need to reset.

For this week’s Momma Time, we’re visiting a botanical garden, going berry picking, and taking our journals outside for some peaceful reflection. We’re also planning a beach self-care day, getting our hands dirty by gardening with neighbors, and finding new ways to appreciate the beauty around us.

We wrap things up with a sunset photo challenge and taking nature photos to share with friends. These activities aren’t about adding more to your schedule—they’re about slowing down enough to notice and enjoy what’s already around you. Grab a friend, get outside, and make a little room for yourself this week. ☀️🌸

We’re continuing our 100 Days of Self-Care journey with Days 66–72, and this week we’re focusing on growth, inspiration, and getting outdoors. Self-care isn’t only about slowing down—sometimes it’s about challenging yourself, learning something new, and surrounding yourself with people and experiences that help you grow.

For Momma Time, we’re attending a women’s conference, starting a self-growth challenge, watching and discussing documentaries, and creating a “Mom Goals” vision session. We’re also encouraging moms to step outside of their comfort zones by learning a new hobby with friends.

Then we’re taking our self-care outdoors! 🌿 We wrap up the week with a picnic in the park and watching the sunrise together. Whether you’re setting new goals or simply sitting outside and enjoying the morning, Days 66–72 are about making intentional space for growth, connection, inspiration, and joy.

We’re continuing our 100 Days of Self-Care journey with Days 59–65, and this week is about taking care of ourselves through movement, learning, encouragement, and community. Inspired by the quote, “You are so much sunshine in every square inch,” we’re finding ways to bring a little more light into our lives—and the lives of the moms around us.

For this week’s Momma Time, we’re getting outside for a hike with mom friends, starting a stretching challenge before bed, and creating a moms’ book club. We’re also making space for personal growth by reading a devotional together, listening to and discussing audiobooks, taking an online class, and sharing motivational quotes with each other every day.

Self-care doesn’t always have to mean getting away from everyone. Sometimes it means finding the right people to move with you, learn with you, encourage you, and grow with you. ☀️💕

We’re continuing our 100 Days of Self-Care journey with Days 52–58, and this week we’re focusing on movement and fitness. Inspired by Sarah Dessen’s reminder of summers when the days felt long and anything was possible, we’re finding fun and realistic ways to get our bodies moving without making exercise feel like another chore on the to-do list.

This week, we’re trying online dance workouts, joining a beginner fitness challenge, taking a Pilates class with friends, going roller skating, and creating a “Move Your Body” accountability thread. We’re also challenging ourselves to train for a 5K together and making movement family-friendly with a stroller walk meetup. The goal isn’t perfection—it’s finding movement you enjoy, encouraging one another, and remembering that taking care of your body is an important part of taking care of you.

Our 100 Days of Self-Care journey continues with Days 45–51, where we’re embracing creativity, connection, and movement as simple ways to recharge. Inspired by the quote, “Summer is singing with joy, and the beaches are inviting you with dancing waves,” this week’s activities encourage you to slow down, try something new, and enjoy the season with intention.

This week, we’re learning calligraphy together, hosting a DIY candle-making night, making friendship bracelets with fellow moms, writing letters to our future selves, joining a virtual craft class, decorating journals, and wrapping up the week by starting a walking group. Whether you’re expressing yourself through creativity or getting outside for a refreshing walk, these moments are reminders that self-care is about creating space for joy, growth, and meaningful connection.

Summer is the perfect time to reconnect, create, and celebrate life together. Inspired by the quote, “Rejoice as summer should… chase away sorrows by living,” this week’s 100 Days of Self-Care encourages you to fill your calendar with meaningful moments that refresh your spirit and strengthen your community.For Days 38–44, we’re focusing on quality time and creativity. We kick things off by starting a monthly dinner club, hosting a virtual lemonade night, and watching an inspiring TED Talk together. Then we tap into our creative side by starting a scrapbook club, attending a paint-and-sip class, creating vision boards, and ending the week with a relaxing adult coloring night. Whether you’re gathering with friends in person or connecting virtually, these simple experiences are a reminder that self-care can be joyful, creative, and shared with others.

This week, we’re pouring into our friendships and reminding ourselves that connection is one of the best forms of self-care. Inspired by the quote, “Caffeine—it maintains my sunny personality.”, we’re embracing meaningful conversations over a warm cup of coffee and creating intentional moments with the people who fill our cups.

For Days 31–37 of our 100 Days of Self-Care journey, we’re scheduling weekly coffee dates, hosting Mom Talk Mondays, starting a brunch club, sending voice notes to check in on one another, meeting up at bookstore cafés, enjoying dessert and vent sessions, and planning themed girls’ nights. Because sometimes the best therapy is quality time with friends who listen, encourage, and remind you that you’re never alone.
