The Love & Lettuce Podcast

In this short, personal episode, Laura is sharing a gentle update from her heart. After realizing she was holding too many things at once, Laura has chosen to step into a slower season - pausing her business and showing up more fully at home with her family.

This isn't a goodbye, and it isn't coming from burnout. It's simply an honest reflection on choosing presence over productivity, honouring the season she's in, and allowing life to look different than it once did.

If you're navigating a season of change, rest, or redefining what "enough" looks like, Laura hopes this episode offers you permission to trust yourself and move at your own pace.

Mama, don't let your health take a backseat just to try to get it all done. Your own health and well-being is still a priority - in fact, even more so during this busy season. Listen in as Laura talks about what she does to keep healthy over the holidays.

In this episode, Laura breaks down the simple but powerful cycle behind every result in your life: your thoughts create your feelings, your feelings drive your actions, and your actions shape your results - no matter what your circumstances look like. When you learn to shift what's happening in your mind, you gain the ability to change anything in your life, including your health and weight. Tune in to understand this cycle, see it in your own day-to-day choices, and start using it intentionally to create the life (and body) you want.

Even though Laura usually recommends living an 80/20 life - meaning that 80% of the time, you eat super-nourishing foods, and 20% of the time, you can indulge - there are some people that are just better off without sugar, period. Laura has experimented both ways and definitely feels better when she goes completely without.

Not only is living without sugar healthier physically (obviously!), but it's so much healthier mentally too. When we don't give ourselves the choice every time (Should I eat the cookies? Should I not eat the cookies?), we are much more free to focus on the rest of life. Instead of deprivation, there is so much freedom.

Listen in as Laura helps you answer the question for yourself - Should I quit sugar?

If there's one thing that Laura knows about making life easier and having things flow more smoothly throughout the day, it's having routines and planning ahead. Listen in as she shares her typical weekday evening routine, which actually starts mid-afternoon when her girls get home from school. Having this routine allows her to get more done, her family to have more connection time, and everyone to be happier.

What if the key to lasting weight loss isn't another diet - but a mindset shift? In this episode, Laura breaks down her #1 weight loss mindset: it's okay if it's uncomfortable; we can do hard things. It's about learning to embrace a little discomfort now for a lot more comfort later. You'll discover why those moments of dealing with cravings or choosing differently, even when it feels hard, are actually the moments that move you closer to your goals. If you've ever wondered how to stay consistent when motivation fades, this episode will help you build the mindset that makes weight loss feel possible (and sustainable!).
