Hey Mama,  Do you want to learn how to find time to exercise as a busy mom? Studies show moving your body is not only essential for your physical health, but also for your mental health. As moms, it can be difficult to find the time to exercise with all of the responsibilities we have.  Maybe you know exercise is good for you, but you are not sure where to start. Maybe you desire to be active like you used to, but your body is different, and you can't do what you used to.  No matter your age and stage, Mama, you can move your body and you should move your body because movement improves your mental health. Your mental health matters, for you and your family. Join me today as I share with you three practical tips to make time for exercise as a busy mom.   For His Glory, Christen   I would love to hear from you!  >>Leave a Review >>Connect with me:   Sign Up for Manage In The Moment Coaching Call: https://bit.ly/ManageStressInTheMoment   Email me : naturalwellnessforbusymoms@gmail.com  Sign Up to Become an Insider: https://bit.ly/naturalwellnessinsider  Join Our FREE Facebook Community:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1789472588229094  >>Find Related Products Here: https://bit.ly/m/Natural-Wellness-for-Busy-Moms  >> These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

Send a textYou know the drill. Monday you're all in the workouts are scheduled, the meals are prepped, the alarm is set for 5 AM. By Thursday you've missed two sessions, eaten cereal for dinner, and you're already mentally drafting your "starting over Monday" speech.Sound familiar? You're not failing. You're stuck in a cycle that was never designed for your actual life.In this episode, we're breaking down why "good enough" fitness isn't a consolation prize it's actually the most strategic, sustainable, and sane approach to health for busy moms who are already doing a million other things at a very high level.If you're a high-achieving woman over 35 who has tried every program, followed every plan, and still feels like you're behind  this one's for you.In this episode we cover:Why the all-or-nothing fitness mindset is keeping you stuck, and why it hits harder for high-achieversWhat "good enough" fitness actually looks like in practice (hint: it's more than you think)How to stop letting a missed workout derail your entire weekWhy consistency always beats perfection when it comes to long-term resultsHow to build a sustainable fitness routine that works around your real life  not the life you wish you had (or you used to have before kiddos)What your kids are actually learning by watching your relationship with exercise and foodThe mindset shift that changes everything: measuring yourself against your own life, not someone else's highlight reelWho this episode is for: This episode is for the busy working mom who is killing it in every other area of her life and somehow still feels like she's failing at fitness.

When you wake up in the morning, what gets you out of bed? What actually starts your day?  A few days ago, as I was getting going, I found myself thinking about those questions. And if I'm honest, most mornings as moms, our feet hit the floor and our minds immediately fill with to-do lists, responsibilities, and everything we need to manage that day.  For so many moms, it's not just tasks—it's the weight of it all. Feelings of overwhelm, loneliness, anxiety, or even quiet discouragement can creep in before the day has really begun. And instead of looking forward to the day, we find ourselves just trying to get through it.  But what if it didn't have to feel that way?  What if we could wake up with a different perspective—even if the to-do list stayed the same?  What if we could reconnect with the things God created us to do and actually enjoy moments in our day, instead of counting down until bedtime? That's what we're going to talk about today—why perspective matters so much, how it shapes our days, and how small shifts can help us move from survival mode to living with more purpose, peace, and joy in this season.  So grab your coffee or tea, take a deep breath, and let's get started. Reminder: Quick Announcement  We have some fun things coming up this spring.   VIP Spring Group Coaching session: https://michellebyrd.myflodesk.com/waitlist Powerful Purpose Moms on 2/18/26 @ 10am PST https://michellebyrd.myflodesk.com/powerfulpurposemoms Powerful Purpose Moms is a workshop for busy moms who feel called to more but want that “more” to fit this season of life.

In this Q+A episode of The Fitness League Podcast, we're tackling real-life fitness questions from busy moms and lifters trying to make progress without perfect conditions. We dive into practical macro tracking strategies for moms who don't have time to weigh every gram, how to find motivation postpartum when routines feel impossible, and simple meal ideas that make healthy eating sustainable (yes, yogurt bowls make the list). We also break down workout splits, why flexibility in your training matters more than perfection, and how small tweaks—like foot positioning on leg curls—can improve muscle activation and results. This episode is about adapting your fitness approach to your current season of life. Whether you're navigating postpartum recovery, juggling kids and career, or just trying to stay consistent without burning out, we'll help you simplify the process and focus on what actually moves the needle.

Today in History: In the days of the Persian Empire, Zechariah the Prophet saw a vision of four colored horses standing among myrtle trees (see Zechariah 1:7). It's also the memorial of the “Even Tzohar,” Rabbi Yechiel Tzvi Lichtenstein (of blessed memory). He was a Messianic Jewish pioneer who died in 1912 CE (5672). He was born in 1831 in Moldavia and became a disciple of Yeshua while studying in Yeshiva. He wrote a very important Hebrew commentary on the Apostolic Scriptures (New Testament).This week's portion is called Mishpatim (judgements)TORAH PORTION: Exodus 22:28[27]–23:5GOSPEL PORTION: Mark 13:24–31What verse spoke to you most today and why?Did you learn something you need to do in your life?Daily Bread for Kids is a daily Bible reading podcast where we read through the Torah and the Gospels in one year!

Hi Mamas, Download my free guide: ✨ ChatGPT Prompts Made Simple for Moms ✨ If you've ever felt overwhelmed, stretched thin, or emotionally exhausted… but couldn't point to one specific reason… this episode is for you. In this Monday Mindset episode, we're unpacking a powerful truth inspired by a Benjamin Franklin quote: “Beware of little expenses. A small leak will sink a great ship.” While this quote is often applied to money, it speaks just as loudly to time, energy, and mental load… especially for working moms. Because most overwhelm doesn't come from one big mistake. It comes from dozens of tiny drains we barely notice. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why small, habitual “leaks” create big stress over time • How convenience, obligation, and default decisions quietly drain you • Why awareness… not guilt… is the key to sustainable change • How to stop judging yourself and start noticing patterns • A simple mindset shift that creates immediate breathing room This episode is not about doing more or fixing everything at once. It's about paying attention… without shame… and reclaiming your sense of control.

Nancy never thought of herself as a runner. She was the kid who hated playing outside, grew up believing only “people chased by bears” ran, and spent most of her adult life focused on raising six kids. Running didn't enter her life until her late 30s, when life got heavy and she started running down the country roads near her home just to clear her head. What began as a mental reset slowly turned into half marathons, lessons learned the hard way about fueling and hydration, and a growing belief that maybe the full marathon wasn't as impossible as she once thought.In this episode, Nancy walks through her path from seven half marathons to the start line of her first full marathon at Richmond, training as a busy mom, navigating doubt, leaning on community, and learning to let go of pace goals in favor of gratitude. It's a story about starting later, doing the work anyway, and proving to yourself that you're capable of more than you ever imagined.Follow along with Nancy at @pauleyontherun on Instagram! Follow along with the show: 

Today in history: Tu BiShvat (New Year of the Trees): In the Torah, God says that the fruit from newly planted trees in Israel is forbidden for three years (see Leviticus 19:23–25). Instead of counting the age of each tree, all are counted from the 15th of Shvat (Tu BiShvat) , the New Year of the Trees. Today, Tu BiShvat is celebrated by planting trees in Israel, and with a festive meal, somewhat similar to Passover. It celebrates the Land of Israel and its fruit.This week's portion is called Yitro (Jethro)TORAH PORTION: Exodus 18:13–23GOSPEL PORTION: Mark 10:13–31What verse spoke to you most today and why?Did you learn something about God?Daily Bread for Kids is a daily Bible reading podcast where we read through the Torah and the Gospels in one year!

Today in History: The memorial of Reverend William Hechler (of blessed memory), a Christian Zionist pioneer who died in 1931 CE (5691). Hechler was an Anglican minister who helped Theodor Herzl, the famous Jewish leader of modern Zionism.

Send us a textIf you're a mom over 35 and the scale won't budge no matter how hard you try, this episode is for you.You're doing all the "right" things—tracking food, working out, cutting carbs—but your body isn't responding like it used to. Sound familiar?In this episode, we're breaking down exactly why the old "eat less, move more" approach stops working after 35, and what you need to do instead to actually build muscle and lose body fat sustainably.In This Episode, You'll Learn:✅ Why your metabolism changes after 35 (and it's not what you think)✅ The science behind muscle loss and why building muscle is non-negotiable for fat loss✅ How to eat MORE and still lose fat (yes, really)✅ Why comparing yourself to your younger body is keeping you stuck✅ The exact training style that works best for women over 35 (hint: it's not more cardio)✅ How to let go of all-or-nothing thinking and embrace "good enough"We're diving into evidence-based research from Dr. Gabrielle Lyon, Dr. Stacy Sims, and Dr. Tyna Moore to give you a science-backed roadmap that actually works with your body—not against it.This isn't about restriction. It's not about punishing yourself. It's about building strength, supporting your metabolism, and creating sustainable change from the inside out.What You'll Discover:The real reason the scale isn't moving: It's not about willpower—it's about muscle loss, hormonal changes, and chronic under-eating that's working against you.Why muscle is your secret weapon: Building lean muscle is the key to boosting metabolism, improving insulin sensitivity, and losing body fat after 35.How to train like an athlete (not like you're punishing yourself): Heavy resistance training, sprint intervals, and adequate recovery are what actually work for women over 35.The protein hack: Most moms aren't eating nearly enough protein. We break down exactly how much you need and why it matters.Permission to let go: Stop chasing your old body and start building forward.
