    Episode 204: 100 Days of Self-Care: Days 23–30

    We’re back with Days 23–30 of our 100 Days of Self-Care journey, and this week is all about slowing down, staying present, and building healthy habits with others. Inspired by the quote, "Live in the sunshine. Swim in the sea. Drink in the wild air." — Ralph Waldo Emerson, we’re focusing on caring for our minds, bodies, and spirits through intentional daily practices. This week’s challenge includes practicing gratitude journaling with an accountability partner, taking mindful walks with another mom, creating a morning affirmations group chat, attending a relaxing sound bath session, starting a hydration challenge, stretching together over Zoom, practicing breathwork with friends, and sharing uplifting podcasts each week. These simple habits are reminders that self-care isn’t just about what you do—it’s about creating a lifestyle that helps you thrive. Join us as we continue choosing ourselves, one day at a time.

    Our 100 Days of Self-Care journey continues with Days 16–22, and this week is all about confidence, community, and caring for ourselves from the inside out.

We also dive into creative activities like a self-care edition of "Get Ready With Me," a weekly glow-up challenge, and a makeup-free confidence day that encourages us to embrace our natural beauty. To top it all off, we create personalized self-care baskets filled with things that bring us joy and peace. Whether you're connecting with friends virtually or in person, these self-care ideas are designed to help you slow down, recharge, and remember that taking care of yourself is always worth the effort.

    Episode 202: 100 Days Of Self Care (Days 8-15)

    Our 100 Days of Self-Care journey continues with Days 8–15, and this week is all about connection, pampering, and pouring back into ourselves alongside other women. From hosting a spa night with face masks and robes to sharing herbal tea recommendations, we explore simple ways to make self-care feel both intentional and fun. We also talk about planning manicure and pedicure meetups, trying Color Street nails during a virtual hangout, swapping favorite skincare products, creating DIY sugar scrubs, experimenting with new hairstyles, and even booking group massages. Whether you're connecting in person or virtually, these activities remind us that self-care doesn't always have to be a solo experience. Sometimes the best way to refill your cup is by spending time with people who help you feel refreshed, supported, and seen.

    Episode 200: Rest Is Not A Reward

    As we continue our 31 Days of Me journey for the month of March, this episode focuses on an important reminder: rest is not a reward—it’s a necessity. Too often we treat rest like something we have to earn after being productive, but that mindset can leave us constantly exhausted and running on empty. In this conversation, we break down three key ideas: letting go of the pressure to always be productive, challenging the mindset of “I’ll rest when everything is done,” and learning to see rest as a basic need rather than a luxury. If you’ve been feeling stretched too thin, this episode is a gentle reminder that taking time to pause is part of taking care of yourself.

    Episode 199: Self Care In Dallas

    We’re continuing our 31 Days of Me journey for the month of March, and this time we’re sharing about a recent trip my husband and I took to Dallas. In this episode, we open up about taking time away, what the experience meant for us, and why moments like this are so important. We also unpack the myth that taking care of yourself has to come after you’ve taken care of everyone else. Instead, we talk about the power of rest, the importance of support systems, and how allowing others to pour into you can make you a better partner, parent, and person. This conversation is a reminder that self-care isn’t a luxury, it’s part of living well.

    Episode 198: 31 Days Of Me

    March is all about 31 Days of Me, a commitment to intentionally pouring back into myself every single day this month. In this episode, we talk about why creating space for yourself isn’t selfish, it’s necessary, especially in the middle of motherhood and everyday responsibilities. We also share a very real mom moment, navigating a situation where one of my children didn’t want to take a shower, and how moments like that can unexpectedly hurt your heart. It opened up a deeper conversation about patience, emotional triggers, and the tender side of parenting that we don’t always talk about. This episode is about self-care, grace, and learning to hold space for both yourself and your children at the same time.

    Episode 197: Spring Of Deception

    In this episode, we kick things off by reacting to Jeni’s Ice Cream’s IG post that says, “Every season is ice cream season (all 11 of them)” and honestly, we might agree with the weather changes lately. From there, we slide into a weekly recap, sharing what life has looked like lately, what we’ve been up to, and how we’re preparing for the girls’ upcoming spring break trip.

    Episode 196: How To Love Yourself After Valentine's Day

    Valentine’s Day may have passed, but loving yourself shouldn’t be limited to one day. In this episode, we talk about creative and meaningful ways to love on you, from writing yourself a heartfelt letter to intentionally filling your own cup through shopping, a makeover, or a solo date challenge. We explore what it looks like to celebrate yourself without waiting on anyone else to do it. Because self-love isn’t selfish, it’s necessary.
