Why Self-Reflection Feels So Hard (and How to Do It Anyway)

Hey babe — this episode is a must-listen as we start out the year. We’re talking about why so many of us avoid reflecting on our past year… and how we can finally do it without spiraling into shame, guilt, or self-judgment.


We break down why reflection feels so loaded (especially for women), and how to flip the script so we can actually get excited about the things that didn’t go the way we planned. Instead of using our past as evidence that something is “wrong” with us, we show you how to treat it like clean data — information that helps us move forward faster.


This conversation is raw, funny, and incredibly practical. We talk about using your photo album and calendar as simple reflection tools, and we share our biggest lessons from the year, around movement, friendship, intuition, rest, boundaries, and slowing down.


You’ll hear us talk about:

  • Why reflection brings up so much shame (and how we stop making it mean something about us)
  • How we learn to get excited about failures instead of beating ourselves up
  • Why collecting data is the fastest way to create real change
  • Simple ways we reflect using our calendar and photo roll
  • Why movement, strength training, and rest completely change our mindset
  • Why scheduling fun and connection isn’t optional — it’s a need
  • How insourcing (trusting ourselves first) changed everything
  • Why slowing down and breaking up with hustle actually works
  • How intentional time with our kids doesn’t “just happen”, it has to be planned


If you’ve been avoiding looking back because you’re scared of what you’ll find, this episode is your permission slip to do it differently. We think you’ll be surprised by how much there is to celebrate...and how powerful it feels to learn instead of judge.


Next up, we’ll be diving into how we’re planning 2026 — but reflection is the foundation. Don’t skip this part.


Let us know if you’re reflecting on 2025 and what lessons stood out for you. Happy New Year, babe. 💫

Why Plastic Surgery or Ozempic is Not Enough with Dr. Sarah Crystal

Hey babes! Today’s episode is a replay of one of our most-loved conversations, and honestly—it deserves another listen. I’m bringing back my powerful chat with Sarah Crystal because this episode is pure gold when it comes to permanent weight loss, real mindset work, and doing the root-level healing that actually sticks.


Sarah is a clinical psychologist, a Yummy Mummy client, and someone who lost 30 pounds—and kept it off. In this episode, she shares what it really looks like to lose weight for the last time, including why tools like plastic surgery or GLP-1s can be helpful but are never the full solution on their own. This conversation is about building a life, identity, and daily practices that make weight regain unnecessary.


We talk about losing weight on vacation (yes, really), ending the deprivation mindset, creating discipline that feels freeing, and why pre-planning your food and life is an act of self-respect—not restriction. Sarah also opens up about her experience with plastic surgery after having twins, why it didn’t “fix everything,” and how doing the internal work completely changed how she feels in her body.


You’ll hear about:

  • How Sarah lost 30 pounds and kept it off long-term
  • Why mindset and emotional regulation are non-negotiable for permanent weight loss
  • Losing weight on vacation without deprivation
  • The difference between surface-level fixes and true root work
  • Why plastic surgery and GLP-1s don’t solve the “why” behind weight gain
  • How daily journaling, intentional planning, and self-trust change everything
  • What it actually takes to feel done with food drama and body shame


If this episode lights something up in you, it’s not an accident. And if you’ve been circling this work for a while, let this replay be your sign.

How to Be a Free Mom (and Reflect on 2025 Without Shame)

Hey babes. This episode is a cozy, powerful solo chat about what it actually means to be a free mom—and how to start creating that freedom now, not someday.

If you’ve been feeling stretched thin, stuck, overwhelmed, resentful, or like your life looks “fine” on the outside but feels tight and exhausting on the inside… this one is for you. We’re redefining freedom in a way that has nothing to do with bigger houses, better vacations, or external achievements—and everything to do with alignment, self-trust, and owning your time, energy, and emotions.


In this episode, we slow way down and talk about how to reflect on 2025 without shame, how to stop repeating the same patterns in 2026, and how to choose ONE area of your life to truly free yourself.


Here’s what we cover:

  • What being a “free mom” actually means (and what it doesn’t)
  • Why freedom is available to you right now—not after you lose weight or fix your life
  • The belief you must adopt before real change can happen
  • Why guilt is part of the process (and why that’s normal)
  • How to audit 2025 without beating yourself up
  • Where you feel the most trapped: body, time, money, marriage, parenting, or career
  • How to choose ONE area to focus on in 2026 (and why that’s the fastest path to change)
  • Why your biggest problems should show up on your calendar and in your investments
  • How to stop abandoning yourself and start honoring your needs
  • The reflection questions that prevent you from repeating the same year again


✨ FREE for podcast listeners ✨

How to Free Yourself From the Marriage You Accidentally Signed Up For: the 6-second kiss, the Power of One, and creating a new marriage contract can set you free

Hey loves! If your marriage feels heavy, transactional, or nothing like what you imagined when you said “I do,” this conversation is going to feel like a deep exhale.


We’re talking about how so many of us accidentally sign up for a version of marriage we never consciously agreed to — one built on assumptions, roles, resentment, and unspoken expectations. And the good news? You don’t have to burn it all down to feel free again. You can renegotiate the contract.


We walk through three powerful tools that can completely change the emotional climate of your relationship: the 6-second kiss, the Power of One, and creating a brand-new marriage contract that actually fits who you are now, not who you were when you first got together.


This isn’t about fixing your partner. It’s about reclaiming your agency, your desire, and your sense of choice — inside your relationship and inside yourself.


In this episode, we cover:

- Why so many marriages drift into resentment without anyone “doing anything wrong”

- How the 6-second kiss rewires connection, safety, and intimacy (and why it works even when things feel awkward)

- The Power of One: how changing your energy shifts the entire dynamic

- What it really means to stop waiting for your partner to change

- How to consciously rewrite your marriage contract — expectations, roles, intimacy, and emotional labor

- Why freedom inside marriage comes from choice, not control

- How this work directly impacts your nervous system, emotional eating patterns, and overall well-being


If you’ve been feeling disconnected, stuck, or quietly wondering if this is “just how it is now,” let this be your permission slip to do marriage differently — without ultimatums, threats, or self-abandonment.


And if this conversation lights something up in you and you’re ready to take this work deeper — with your relationship, your body, and your life — come hang out with me inside my programs. All the details are at lauraconley.com. You don’t have to keep living in a contract you never meant to sign.

How to Drop the Holiday Dread: Coco and Lala on Expectations, Shoulds & Making the Season Actually Fun

Hey babes! This one is JUICY. Nicole and I are bringing you a full holiday intervention—Coco & Lala style. If you’re already feeling the pressure of “doing the holidays right,” this episode is your warm hug, your reality check, and your permission slip to STOP performing and start actually enjoying yourself. 💁‍♀️✨

We dive into the three big holiday questions every woman needs to ask:

1. What dreadful thing are you dropping this season?

Because newsflash: no big disaster happened because I stopped sending holiday cards. You get to drop the stuff that drains you. You get to say no. You get to stop performing for invisible judges who don’t even care. ✔️

2. What holiday dream are you adding?

Maybe it’s two full weeks off. Maybe it’s catering your annual party. Maybe it’s reading on the couch for hours with the tree lit. Let the question simmer—your dream will find you.

3. What manual (those sneaky expectations of other people!) are you burning?

Your partner, your mother-in-law, your kids—they’re going to show up how they’ve always shown up. Radical acceptance isn’t giving up… it’s giving yourself freedom.

Along the way, you’ll hear me negotiating with my hubby Brian about hiring someone to put up the Christmas tree (tradition wins… for now), Nicole’s surprisingly chill holiday philosophy, and how to avoid setting yourself up for years of self-inflicted expectations (Elf on the Shelf girlies… I’m talking to you).

This episode is your guide to a calmer, cozier, saner season—one where you drop the dread, keep the joy, and build real community around what matters most.

You’ll hear:

  • Why holiday resentment is often just unspoken expectations
  • How to “drop one dread” and prove nothing bad happens
  • Why controlling adults literally never works (ever)
  • How to be surprised—in a GOOD way—by your partner
  • Why community and accountability make everything feel lighter
  • How to prevent holiday chaos you’ll regret committing to for 10+ years
  • Why guilt is sometimes a sign you’re taking care of yourself
  • How to embrace the truth: the shoe will drop someday… so enjoy your good season NOW

Coco + Lala Show: Break the Good Girl Playbook: Authenticity, Imperfection, and Getting a Little Unhinged

Want some pure chaos in the best way? You're in the right place. Nicole and I are back with another Coco & Lala Show takeover, and we're inviting you to get a little…unhinged. 😂


Underneath all the silliness is a really important conversation: so many of us are still living by the invisible “Good Girl playbook” — the rules about how we’re supposed to look, act, mother, eat, and show up. We’re following all the rules, checking all the boxes (degree, job, husband, kids, house)…and then wondering why we still feel numb, restless, and like something is missing. 


Hit play to hear:

- Why laughing until you cry needs to be a real goal on your calendar  

- How the “Good Girl playbook” gets passed down and keeps you small (and bored)  

- Why perfection is boring, inauthentic, and totally not the vibe anymore  

- How authenticity and a little harmless chaos can actually support your weight loss journey  

- A simple challenge: choose one unhinged thing to do this week and *do it on purpose*  

- Laura’s own unhinged act (hello, first tattoo at the Yummy Mummy retreat 👀)  

- How envy can actually be a compass pointing you toward your truest desires   


If you’ve been over-scrolling, overeating, over-drinking, or over-Netflixing because your life feels a little…beige, this conversation is your reminder that you’re allowed to color outside the lines. You do not have to earn your fun, your weirdness, or your joy.   


And babe, if this hits and you’re like, “Okay, I’m ready to stop following the rules around food and my body too,” now is *the* time to jump into The Yummy Mummy Experience.  


We are in the depths of the Pink Friday Yummy Mummy Sale — the best deal Laura has EVER offered on the Yummy Mummy Experience. 🎉 Go to https://lauraconley.com/pink to:

- Get on the early access VIP list  

- Lock in the biggest savings we’ve ever done  

- Save your spot in the next Yummy Mummy cohort starting in January   


Come get unhinged in the most delicious way: by losing weight for the last time, ditching the good girl rules, and actually letting yourself have a life you’re obsessed with.

Is Yummy Mummy Worth $5K for ‘Just’ 10 Pounds? Erica’s 22-Pound Glow-Up (Without GLP-1s)

Hey, mama! Today’s episode is the one to listen to if you’ve ever wondered, “Is the Yummy Mummy Experience actually worth $5,000—especially if I only want to lose 5–10 pounds?” Because that’s exactly where Erica started… and then she lost 22 pounds, rewired her relationship with food, boosted her confidence, and transformed her entire life in the process.


Erica opens up about what it felt like to slowly gain weight year after year, why it chipped away at her confidence, and how she realized she didn’t need more willpower—she needed tools. She even considered GLP-1 medications, but wanted to try a natural, sustainable route first.


Inside this candid, encouraging conversation, you’ll hear how she went from “There’s no way I could give up flour” to confidently navigating pizza nights, kids’ birthday parties, European bakeries, and family trips—while still losing weight. And yes… you’ll also hear about the moment her husband said it was the first real conversation they’d had in a long time. The ripple effects are real.


You’ll learn:

  • Why “just” 1–2 lbs a year can snowball into not feeling like yourself
  • What finally pushed Erica to invest in herself
  • How she approached sugar and flour flexibly (not rigidly!)
  • The surprising ease of intermittent fasting once she experimented slowly
  • What it feels like to want the cupcake less instead of “white-knuckling no”
  • How she navigated Europe, croissants, and hotel breakfasts—still losing weight
  • The ripple effect on her marriage, her dad, and her family
  • Why she now feels calm, confident, and excited about goals outside of weight


If you’ve been debating whether this investment is “worth it,” or if the Yummy Mummy Experience can actually help you lose weight for the last time—Erica’s story is going to blow your mind!!


🎀 PINK FRIDAY EXTENDED for Podcast Listeners ONLY!

The January 2026 cohort is still open at the lowest price Laura has ever offered.

LIVE COACHING TESTIMONIAL: “It Finally Felt Easy” — How Laura Rose Lost 25 lbs Without Counting Calories (and Found Her Freedom)

Hey babes! Today's episode is a full-body YES because you get to hear a LIVE coaching testimonial from one of my brightest clients—Laura Rose. If you've ever thought, "Why is this so hard? I'm doing everything and nothing is changing," this conversation is going to feel like hope, relief, and a deep breath.


Laura opens up about her lifelong weight struggle, the years of tracking every calorie, lifting, walking, "doing everything right," and still watching the scale climb. She shares the moment she hit rock bottom—crying in bed to her husband, feeling like a dark cloud was hanging over her whole beautiful life—and the guilt of wanting to feel better in her body while raising daughters in a body-positive world.


And then? She joined the Yummy Mummy Experience...and it finally felt EASY.

She lost 25 pounds in under six months (while eating fries, potatoes, and rice!), slipped into size-small dresses, and stepped into a version of herself that felt energized, confident, calm, and deeply her. Now, even pregnant with baby #3, she's navigating food, cravings, and weight with trust and steadiness because the tools are in her.


Here are the top shifts you'll love in this episode:

  • How cutting flour + sugar (not carbs!) turned off cravings and created instant calm
  • Why losing weight without tracking anything felt like total freedom
  • The mental tools she uses daily for motherhood, marriage, and life (not just food!)
  • How journaling helps her stay intentional instead of living on autopilot
  • What happened when pregnancy nausea knocked her off protocol—and why she didn't spiral
  • The simple question that helped her finally say yes to coaching

LIVE Coaching: Mom Guilt, Money & The “Chad Filter” — Saying Yes to Yourself

Hey mama! This episode is a must-listen if you’ve ever felt like you’re drowning in motherhood, convincing yourself “this is just how it is,” or talking yourself out of getting support because it feels indulgent, selfish, or “not necessary.” Today, Laura sits down with Raven—a mom of five, homeschooling pro, football-coach wife, online business manager, and full-on chaos navigator—to unpack one of the biggest traps moms get stuck in: believing they’re not allowed to want more.


This conversation is raw, hilarious, emotional, and honestly… healing. Raven brings the exact thoughts so many moms are silently living with: I don’t have a choice. I can’t spend money on myself. My chaos is just who I am. Other women can thrive, but not me. And Laura—through coaching, compassion, and a whole lot of truth bombs—helps her see what’s actually going on underneath that guilt.


You’re going to hear the exact mindset patterns keeping moms stuck in survival mode—and how to finally step into a version of life that feels peaceful, fun, intentional, and yes… free.


Inside this episode:

  • The mental gymnastics moms do when spending money on themselves
  • Why investments in our emotional wellbeing feel “indulgent” (spoiler: conditioning)
  • The “Chad Filter” and how men make decisions without the guilt spiral
  • Why chaos can feel familiar—and why our brains cling to it
  • The difference between discomfort that keeps you stuck vs discomfort that leads to growth
  • How motherhood martyrdom gets passed from generation to generation
  • What it actually means to model joy, freedom, and fun for your kids
  • How your energy affects your business, your family, and your ability to thrive
  • The real fear behind joining Free the Moms (and why it’s totally normal)

If you’ve ever scrolled a sales page 12 times, gone back and forth for days, or felt that gut pull toward something that could help you—only to talk yourself out of it—this episode will feel like taking a breath you didn’t know you were holding.

How to Stop the Binge–Restrict Cycle for Good

Hey, mama! If you've ever felt trapped in the binge–restrict cycle—being “good” all week only to find yourself raiding the pantry by Friday night—this episode is going to set you free. I’m joined by my friend and fellow coach, Amber Abila, who shares her powerful story of overcoming binge eating and how dieting actually creates the very problem we’re trying to fix.

Together, we unpack why calorie counting and over-restriction lead to overeating, how to rewire your brain to end bingeing for good, and what healthy restriction really looks like (because yes, there’s such a thing!). You’ll walk away with a new understanding of what’s happening in your brain and how to step into real food freedom—without the guilt, shame, or “start-again-Monday” mindset.


We cover:

  • The difference between binge eating and overeating (and why both start with restriction)
  • Why dieting and calorie counting backfire—and what to do instead
  • How to recognize “mental restriction” even when you’re eating enough
  • What healthy, loving boundaries with food look like
  • How to sit with urges and break the binge habit for good
  • Why intuitive eating alone might not be the full answer
  • What real recovery and food freedom can look like long-term

Why You Should Journal If You Are a Busy, Overwhelmed Mom

Hey mama---if you've ever said "I'm just not a journaler," this one's for you. 💌 I sat down with Ashley, The Journaling Coach, to talk all things journaling---how it can reconnect you to yourself, release stress, and literally change your life. Whether you haven't touched a journal since middle school or already love a good brain dump, you're going to see journaling in a whole new way after this episode.


Ashley shares how a late-night journaling session after heartbreak turned into her life's work---helping others process, heal, and come home to themselves through writing. Together, we dive into why journaling matters so much for moms, how to start even if it feels awkward, and how this simple daily act can help you drop guilt, reclaim joy, and remember who you are beyond motherhood.


Here's what we talk about:  

  • Why journaling is one of the fastest ways to get out of your head and into your heart  
  • How writing helps you uncover subconscious stories and rewire your brain  
  • The truth about why so many moms avoid journaling---and how to rebuild trust with yourself  
  • Ashley's favorite go-to prompts (including the life-changing one: "What do I need more of?")  
  • How journaling and fun go hand-in-hand (yes, healing can actually be FUN!)  
  • The difference between brain dumping and prompted writing---and when to use each  
  • Why giving yourself permission to write imperfectly is a radical act of self-care


And you'll hear me talk about my new favorite challenge: "Felt Guilty, Did It Anyway." Because when we model self-care and wholeness, we show our kids that love doesn't mean disappearing---it means being fully alive.

Build Wealth Without a Budget: The Do Both Method for Moms

You know how I always say that restriction doesn't work for weight loss? Well, it turns out it doesn't work for money either. Germaine and I jam on all the sneaky money traps we fall into as women and moms --- and how we can finally free ourselves from them.


I sat down with my friend Germaine Foley, a total money queen who teaches women how to build wealth without restriction, deprivation, or overwhelm. You're going to be obsessed.


Germaine used to have over $200K in debt, and now she's completely turned it around. She shares how she built wealth without giving up lattes, vacations, or joy (yes, please!). Her approach --- the Do Both Method --- is all about building wealth and enjoying life at the same time.


Here's what we dive into:\

  • The invisible bars that keep us stuck in money cages
  • Why "just make more money" isn't actually the solution
  • How crash diets and strict budgets are basically the same trap
  • The mindset shift to do both --- live now and build for later
  • How to align your spending with what actually matters to you
  • My favorite takeaway: money needs attention, but not obsession (like a good partner!)
  • Germaine's 3-account system that makes managing money simple and fun
  • How to stop ignoring your finances --- and start feeling empowered by them
  • Why spending on yourself isn't selfish --- it's smart, powerful, and necessary


I seriously got so fired up during this convo because the parallels between money and weight loss are wild. Both are about intention, not punishment. Attention, not restriction. Freedom, not perfection.

If you're ready to change your relationship with money (and honestly, your whole life), go check out Germaine's free private podcast


Or if you're like, "I need this woman in my life," book a consult with her.


And mama --- don't forget to join the brand new Free the Moms Membership! It's all about freeing you from every kind of cage --- diet drama, people pleasing, mom guilt, money stress --- all of it: http://lauraconley.com/freethemoms


Let's free the moms, free the money, and free your life. You deserve it. 💖

This one's for every woman who's ever felt like slowing down isn't safe. Laura sits down with the incredible Krista Williams---cofounder of Almost 30, host of Morning Microdose, and author of Almost 30: A Definitive Guide to a Life You Love---to talk about what it really means to live in your divine feminine.


They dive into the tension so many of us feel between hustle and flow, between doing and receiving, and how to finally find balance between the masculine and feminine within us. Krista shares her journey from burnout and body shame to grounded self-trust, feminine embodiment, and a deeper relationship with God. Together, they explore how surrendering control can actually create more success, pleasure, and peace.


This is an episode about trusting your body, letting go of the rulebooks, and finding safety in softness---even when it feels rebellious. You'll walk away with a whole new understanding of feminine energy, worthiness, and what freedom can look like when you stop trying to earn it.


You'll hear:

  • What the divine feminine really means (and why it's not weakness)
  • How to find safety in rest, softness, and slowness
  • Why balancing masculine and feminine energy leads to more creativity and ease
  • The truth about healing your body image and ending the "thin = lovable" lie
  • How spirituality and self-trust can become your ultimate business strategy
  • The power of asking: "Do my patterns match my prayers?"

Mom Guilt vs. Dad Guilt: Why We Feel It (and How to Break Free)

Okay mamas, this one is FUN—you get my hubby Brian on the pod! 🙌 We’re diving into a hilarious (and kind of eye-opening) story from the first week of school that showed me just how differently moms and dads experience guilt. 


I was over here spiraling with full-on *mom guilt* for missing my son’s first day of kindergarten… meanwhile, Brian casually admits he didn’t feel guilty at all for missing our daughter’s big day. Like, what?! 😂 


So in this episode we’re breaking it all down—why moms carry the emotional load, why dads seem totally unbothered, and what we can actually *learn* from them about letting go of guilt. 


You’ll hear us laugh, tease, and keep it totally real about:

  • Why dads often skip the guilt trip altogether  
  • How our cultural “codes” shape what we think parenting *should* look like  
  • Why trusting our partners (and our kids!) can free us up big time  
  • How letting our kids feel their feelings is actually a gift  
  • What happens when we stop trying to be everywhere, every time  


This convo is equal parts juicy, lighthearted, and freeing. If you’ve ever felt weighed down by mom guilt, I promise this will leave you laughing and breathing easier. And if you’re ready to really practice ditching the guilt (plus people-pleasing and perfectionism), come join me inside Free the Moms—we’re doing the work daily, live or on demand, and it’s already pure magic. ✨  


If you’ve ever felt resentment, overwhelm, or crushing mom guilt, this episode is your reminder that freedom is possible. And if you want to go deeper in uncaging yourself from guilt, people-pleasing, and perfectionism, come join us inside Free the Moms. We’re meeting daily (yes, live or on demand!) to ground, reset, and actually practice putting ourselves first. Because your peace is priceless—and your kids deserve a mom with a full cup.

This episode is going to light you up! I’m joined by three incredible clients—Tori, Blair, and Kelly—who are sharing their real-life experiences with the Morning Magic ritual inside the Freedom Moms Membership. This practice may only take 8 minutes, but the ripple effects? Absolutely life-changing.


You’ll hear how these women went from feeling overwhelmed, perfectionistic, and constantly “on the waves” of life to feeling grounded, intentional, and focused. They share how just a few minutes of journaling, breathwork, and setting intentions each morning has transformed not only their own lives but also their relationships, their families, and even their work.


Listen in to learn:

  • How to create mornings that actually fuel your day (even with a busy job or little ones at home!)
  • Why letting go of perfectionism creates MORE peace, energy, and freedom
  • The surprising wins these moms experienced—from launching businesses to enjoying dinner out with their husbands again
  • Why you really do have the answers within you (and how to access them daily)
  • The exact prompts that helped them shift from frantic to focused, spiraling to present, and outward to inward


If you’ve ever thought, “My mornings are too chaotic for this,” this episode is proof that you can make it work. All it takes is a few minutes—and the results are pure magic.

Goodbye Overwhelm, Hello Freedom: my fave hack as a mom (a Coco and Lala Episode)

God has a plan—and in this wild, soul-stirring convo, Nicole and I are breaking it down with our signature ADHD energy, humor, and heart. From $60k IRS bills that turned into unexpected blessings, to realizing that rejection is just redirection, this episode is a reminder that we don’t have to carry it all or control it all.


If you’ve ever obsessed over the “how,” felt like life was spinning out of control, or wondered if you’re just a little “delusional” for choosing to see the good—this one’s for you. Together, we unpack why it’s powerful to believe that God (or the universe, Spirit, Source—whatever resonates) is in every single detail. Because when we let go of control, we find freedom.


Tune in to hear:

  • Why saying “this is for me” can change how we handle life’s curveballs
  • Nicole’s perspective on atheism, dating, and finding Spirit everywhere
  • My real-life $60,000 IRS scare and what it taught me about trust
  • The cage of control and what freedom really looks like
  • Why letting go of the “how” is the ultimate spiritual practice


And babe, don’t forget—get yourself on my VIP Early Access list at lauraconley.com/vip or text VIP to 720-419-1108. You’ll snag exclusive founder’s pricing, bonuses, and even a one-on-one call with me (worth $500+). Doors open soon and we kick off October 6th. Let’s do this together!

From Depleted to Free: The Tiny Daily Practice That Actually Works

Hey mama—this one is powerful. Meet Jennifer, one of my incredible clients who went from feeling completely depleted to living a life that feels free, vibrant, and so full of joy. She’s lost 65 pounds (yes, 65!)—but more importantly, she’s found true happiness and energy she didn’t even know was possible.


And the best part? It started with a tiny daily practice she didn’t even want to do at first: journaling.


If you’ve ever thought “ugh, journaling is not for me,” this episode might just change your mind. Jennifer takes us inside her journey—how she resisted at first, how she built a colorful stack of journals anyway, and how those few intentional minutes each morning rewired her thoughts, shifted her energy, and completely transformed her life.


You’ll hear about:

  • The journaling hack that made it simple and fun (no long, dramatic diary entries required!)
  • Why writing just a few words a day can reprogram your brain toward success
  • How Jennifer went from sad, tired, and depleted to energized, confident, and free
  • Why choosing your future self—over and over—is the secret to real transformation
  • The unexpected byproducts of her weight loss (hint: it’s about way more than the scale)


If you’re ready to stop feeling depleted and start feeling free, this conversation will light you up.

A Cautionary Tale For Moms (+ my family secret I couldn't share til now)

The Yummy Mummy Podcast is evolving, babes. Welcome to Free the Moms—a new chapter, a new mission, and honestly, the most personal one I’ve ever shared.

This first episode is raw, real, and probably the most vulnerable I’ve ever been on the mic. I tell the story of why this podcast had to shift.


Here’s the truth: my mom did everything “right.” She was the "Pinterest mom" before Pinterest existed—holidays, snacks, PTO, all of it. But she never put herself on the list. And the toll of that? It’s heartbreaking. I share what happened, why I believe we have to stop disappearing from our own lives, and how this work is about healing not just for us—but for generations.


This episode is your cautionary tale and your permission slip. Permission to say yes to yourself. To finally put yourself on the list. To stop playing by the outdated motherhood rulebook. To wake up excited for your day, and go to bed feeling fulfilled.


Hit play to hear:

  • Why I’m rebranding to Free the Moms (and what it means for YOU)
  • The deeply personal story of my mom’s mental health battle
  • The cautionary tale of what happens when moms never put themselves first
  • How generational healing plays into this mission
  • What “freedom” really means in everyday mom life
  • The challenge I’m creating for you to finally end mom guilt


This is just the beginning. We’re doing this journey together—skipping, galloping, trampoline-jumping our way to freedom. I want to hear from you: DM me on Instagram @lauraconleycoaching, reply to my emails, tell me what’s resonating. This isn’t me talking at you—it’s us, side by side, freeing ourselves together.


And babe, don’t miss the free challenge coming soon: The End of Your Mom Guilt Era. Follow me on IG for all the details, because this is the moment we stop waiting and start living.


I love you. Welcome to Free the Moms. Let’s go. 💖
