303. The Health Hack ALL Mamas Need to Know: Why Blood Sugar Is the Secret Sauce for Every Mom
I’m sharing two powerful (and totally free!) hacks that my naturopath reminded me of — sunshine and mental vacations — plus the one unexpected factor that has completely rocked my world and helped me finally start feeling like myself again: blood sugar balance.
Yep. Blood sugar. I know, it doesn't sound sexy. But if you’re snapping at your kids, crashing mid-afternoon, living off coffee, or staring in the mirror wondering who the hell that tired woman is — it might be the missing link. I'm breaking it all down mama-style, explaining what blood sugar actually does in your body, why it's messing with your mood, cravings, energy, and sleep, and how to start balancing it with simple shifts — no diets, no shame, no “wellness” overwhelm.
I talk about what’s really going on when you feel blah even though you're "doing all the things," why cereal for dinner is totally fine (sometimes), and how starting your day with protein and fat might just change your entire week. This is about nourishing your body in a way that makes you feel strong, calm, focused, and energized — and yes, still eating pizza.
This episode is for the moms who are done feeling like crap, and ready to start feeling good again — without overhauling your life. It’s honest, empowering, and filled with tangible, realistic things you can do TODAY. Because you deserve to feel good in your body. Every damn day.
In this episode, I talk about:
The moment I told my naturopath “I feel blah” — and what she said
Why sunlight might be just as important as your green smoothie
What a “mental vacation” really looks like (spoiler: it's not a retreat)
How blood sugar impacts your mood, energy, cravings, sleep, and stress
The food and habit shifts that made me feel like ME again
Why this isn’t about dieting — it’s about understanding your biology
How to start making one intentional choice at a time
Managing your blood sugar = managing your life, mama.
If you’ve ever felt like your mood swings, energy crashes, or cravings are running the show—this episode is your reset.
