In weight loss, a protocol is like your diet plan. It says what you will and won’t eat, how often, and how much.

So when it comes to improving your mental wellness, you need your own mental wellness protocol that focuses on the 5 categories that make up your wellbeing: Mental, physical, emotional, spiritual, and social.

And in this episode, I’m helping you create a customized protocol that works for your own unique needs and life so you can feel happier, more energetic, and avoid burnout.

We set goals for many different areas of our lives, like weight loss or finances.

And those are great goals and can have some really beneficial gains to hitting them.

But the one kind of goal that has the BIGGEST impact on our lives overall-including in those other areas- is our mental wellness.

In this first episode of our three part series on setting mental wellness goals, I’m sharing exactly how you can measure where your own stress levels are currently, and set a tangible. quantitative goal to work towards.

In this episode, we are talking about three common ways people pleasing shows up for us moms, and how to recognize it in your own life.

In this episode we are answering more listener questions! From getting a good babysitter to not getting annoyed at your child, let’s dive in!

The #1 question I got asked last week was, “How do I take care of myself without feeling guilty?”

And in this episode, I’m not only answering it but I’m also giving you a glimpse into how we shift our mindsets from guilt to self love.

By asking solutions-focused questions, and working with your brain rather than against it, you can start to see self-care as a priority rather than something on the back burner.

As special needs parents, getting a regular date night can be CHALLENGING. But with a little planning and creativity, we can ensure our marriages get the time and attention they deserve.
