Fear prevents so many of us from living the life of our dreams.  

In this episode I sit down with my friend Melanie Hunter as we explore the beauty and the best of relationships, motherhood, taking risks and the power of enhancing our relationships (including our relationship with ourselves).  

Melanie is a Certified Holistic Nutrition Consultant, Founder of alii Supplement, Breathwork instructor, and mother to three boys. She is a seeker who strives to live life to its fullest. She believes that true health comes when the body, mind, and spirit are in alignment. Her mission is to educate & empower others to take control of their health and to do everything with love. 

We talk about all the things, from being “just a mom” and why we think of it that way, to the importance of spending time with yourself and getting to know yourself and the effect that that can have on enhancing all of our relationships; to the realities and challenges of actually being brave enough to follow our dreams and follow our heart and what that can actually look like, as well as what we can come up against in the process, and how she pushes through those challenges.

So grab your favorite drink, pull up a chair or put on your walking shoes and listen to this episode filled with love, growth, bravery, and wellness from the inside out!

Are your habits working FOR you or AGAINST you? 

Your habits compound over time, and it’s up to you to make sure they’re working in your favor. 

I know it can seem overwhelming to create a new habit and/or change a bad habit. But you can take small steps and make small, incremental tweaks, and over time those will compound into huge, lasting change.

We recently read the book Atomic Habits by James Clear in the Best Friends Book Nook (my online book club for women). 

Normally I share my key takeaways in the book club. But this book is so transformative, I wanted to share the best points with everyone so you can take these and implement them into your life right away.

So if you’re in a season where it’s tough to find the time to read a book, I’ve got you! Grab a tasty beverage, a notebook, and let’s talk about how you can make small changes that have a huge impact on your life.

▶︎ Habits Score Card

▶︎ Apply these ideas to parenting

How many women out there feel depleted, exhausted, and overwhelmed by the end of the day, only to then realize that you soon have to go to bed and repeat it all again the next day.

This happens to so many of us because, as women, we naturally put the needs of everyone else before our own, and don’t carve out time or space to take care of ourselves. 

The problem is that you actually DO have time to take better care of yourself, but you’re likely filling these moments with things that do NOTHING for your soul. Things like scrolling social media, checking emails, or catching up on the many things you “should” be doing. 

The key is developing a personalized plan for YOU so that you can fill these pockets of time with things that bring you joy and energy. 

Now you might be thinking “Melissa, I don’t have time for self-care.”

I hear you…but true self-care does NOT have to take much time! 

If you can carve out 5 minutes every single day (and I know you can!), you can use what I call the Connection Code to fill your cup and stop ending your days on empty. 

In this episode I’m going to break down the Connection Code, and help you make 5 minutes feel like you spent hours taking care of yourself.

If you’re having trouble with sleep…whether it’s hard to fall asleep, you wake up a lot, or just don’t feel rested the next day, it’s so common these days for people to struggle with sleep. 

Why is that, and what can we do about it?

In this episode I get to interview Mollie Eastman, creator of Sleep Is A Skill and the host of the Sleep Is A Skill Podcast, and we’re going to dive into all things sleep. 

So if that’s you and you struggle with sleep, or you’re looking to optimize and maximize your sleep, this episode is for you!

We are going to discuss things that get in the way of good sleep, as well as tips and tools that you can apply amidst your “real life” where you can't do everything perfectly or control every scenario.

Even if you think good sleep just isn’t possible for you, Mollie says differently! As someone who always struggled with sleep and thought that’s how it will always be, she understands first-hand how challenging this can be. 

But after years of research and a lot of trial and error, Mollie has drastically improved her own sleep, as well as the sleep of so many others.

There are many things the average person can do to influence their sleep results, and good sleep IS possible for you!

So if you’re ready to learn about the science of sleep and how good sleep is actually a skill that you can develop, let’s dive in!
