Chapter 3 of Atomic Habits by James Clear

Atomic Habits Series (The ODD episodes): Ep. 61,  Ep. 63, Ep. 65, Ep. 67, Ep. 69, Ep. 71, Ep. 75, Ep. 77, Ep. 81, Ep. 83, Ep. 85, Ep. 87, Ep. 89

We are in chapter 4 of Atomic Habits, my favorite book. James Clear talks about 4 steps to building better habits, and we are starting with step #1 which is Cue.

The big question is...how do you get rid of the bad habits in your life so you can start living with good habits instead? Today is the day I want you to get rid of bad habits. It's time to find substitutes. Substitute the bad habits with good ones.

We are diving deep into why you are typically resorting to our old, bad habits when you become a mom. There is a way to stop this from happening.

At the end of the episode, we are doing a self-audit on our daily lives to find out what the bad habits are that are being repeated. The audit will help you narrow down what's working and what's not working. 

Are you ready to get a clear breakdown of your life? Let's go!

Continue listening to The Atomic Habits Series here on the podcast by listening to the odd # episodes: go all the way back to episode #61

This is the one thing that is so often missed but is so important for speeding up a new mom's postpartum recovery. If you are eager to lose weight after giving birth and not sure how to get started in a safe and healthy way, I recommend using this product that is not a pill and not involving a lot of effort on your part. Listen in to find out what I did to lose the baby weight after having 4 babies and had people asking me repeatedly, "How did you get such a flat stomach as a mom of 4?" This is part of the solution.

Chapter 2 of Atomic Habits by James Clear

Atomic Habits Series (The ODD episodes): Ep. 61,  Ep. 63, Ep. 65, Ep. 67, Ep. 69, Ep. 71, Ep. 75, Ep. 77, Ep. 81, Ep. 83, Ep. 85, Ep. 87, Ep. 89

We are combining two series into one for this super jam-packed episode. We have been talking all about the book Atomic Habits, by James Clear over the past several episodes and now we are in the middle of the Weight Loss Week series.

One of the main goals postpartum moms have is to lose weight. It's not as easy as it sounds because of all the varying factors that are going on in your new life: your baby's feeding schedule varies, your baby's sleep schedule is inconsistent, your work-life balance is non-existent, and your relationships are changing ever since your baby entered this world. How do you find the time and energy to create healthy habits around fitness and weight loss with all these variables in play? 

This episode unpacks that and explains the 4 crucial yet simple steps to build better habits. Without these 4  steps, habits are non-existent. Listen in to learn more!

Are you getting sleep, mama? I'm going to guess you aren't because, well, what new mom does get sleep? Not that many. And for that reason, I want to provide some advice on how you can use my tips to get more sleep and use sleep to your advantage ultimately for weight loss.

I did it with all 4 of my babies and I know you can too. Sleep training for your baby and getting plenty of mama-sleep is a crucial part of weight loss, so please don't neglect this very important area of your health.

What a dilemma! I hear this time and time again..."How do I maintain my milk supply while trying to lose weight postpartum?" It is not as clear cut as we new mamas hope it to be, but there is good news!

The good news is you CAN lose weight, get rid of the mommy pooch and have strong abs while maintaining milk supply. I was able to breastfeed my babies for 12 months, maintain my milk supply, and lose the excess baby weight by 4 months postpartum. I know you can too.

Listen in to this episode to learn my 9 best tips for succeeding at keeping your milk supply high and lose weight.

Do you love writing goals? I do — a lot!

But when I read the book Atomic Habits by James Clear, I was shocked to hear his take on goals and whether or not they are worthless.

Listen in on how we are supposed to set ourselves up for success when it comes to creating new habits and hear how I take the lessons from Chapter 1 and apply it to the new mom who wants to develop healthy fitness habits in her life. Is that you? Then you'll love this episode.
