    Ep. 02 Progress, Not Perfection: Health, Movement, and Self-Care in Busy Motherhood

    LINKS: Jazzercise Tyrone Jazzercise Tyrone Facebook Page Dr. Joanna Chipman welcomes Anita Riggin, Jazzercise Tyrone center owner, fitness instructor, and mom of three, to discuss caring for yourself in busy seasons and modeling health for children. Anita emphasizes scheduling self-care, setting small goals, and giving yourself grace with a “progress, not perfection” mindset, including after setbacks and vacations. She shares losing 75 pounds over many years after an endocrinologist recommended holistic changes for a thyroid condition and fertility challenges, stressing lifestyle change over dieting. They discuss practical movement tips—finding an activity you enjoy, not fearing looking silly, and walking for steps—and how to teach kids balanced, non-shaming nutrition after a family comment led her son to restrict eating.
