Self-Care for Busy Moms I Healthy Food & Lifestyle, Time Management, Stress Reduction Methods, Exercise Routine Are you struggling to stay consistent to a healthy diet? Do you feel frustrated with the setbacks from poor food choices that affect your body and mood? Is it a challenge to maintain motivation to exercise regularly given your busy schedule? I am so excited you’re here! This podcast will help you find ways to have habits for physical health and fitness, and for mental and spiritual wellbeing so you can have long-term strength and greater peace! Hey, I’m Susan. A friend of Jesus, a wife, and boy mom. For many years, I struggled with finding time, motivation or the discipline to exercise regularly or have any self-care. My life was increasingly busy with my kids and their schedules and I lacked consistency and habits that put importance on self-care. My striving to keep everything going smoothly in my family pushed me to ignore many things…balance, friendships, mental drain, overwhelm, mild depression. I finally realized that in order to have physical health as well as mental well-being and peace, I needed to slow down and tend to myself in order to be there for my family. I focused on physical therapy and strategies to relax and de-stress through self-care. This started a decades-long process of learning to find what works and does not work for me. I created a strategy that works with ME. A step by step process that I could actually stick with. Even when there are times I fall off, this process helps me get back on track faster so that I can stay the course over time for long-term health and strength. And I’m ready to share it with you! If you are ready to finally implement strategies for busy moms so you can have… Physical Health and Fitness Mental and Spiritual Strength Discipline and Consistency Personal Time and Relaxation - this podcast is for you! Grab your step counter and lace up your shoes, it’s time to walk together!

29 | Reflection and Goal-Setting for Your New Year
Are you just dizzy from the Christmas celebrations?  Do you feel spent and drained from the month and feel like you are barely crawling to the finish of the year?     In this episode, we’re going over 5 things to help you get ready for the new year. Reflect on 2025 wins—family, health, faith, and growth. Audit routines—morning, bedtime, eating well, stress and time management. Prayerfully set 2026 goals—strength training, Mediterranean diet recipes, personal and family milestones. Celebrate small wins, track progress, and move forward with clarity, faith, and intentionality. Scripture referenced: Lamentations 3:22-23; Philippians 3:13-14   SIGN UP FOR THE FREE WORKSHOP HERE: https://suroselfcare.myflodesk.com/workshop   Friend, I remember a time when I was running from one emergency meal to another.  I didn’t know how to strategically plan a grocery trip, and I was stressed out every night by dinnertime.  Over the years, my family’s love for Mediterranean food was the turning point that helped me figure out the basic elements to this type of cuisine and then to loosely plan meals based on themes for a week.  This was a gamechanger for me and made grocery shopping smoother and with greater focus and efficiency.  I had flexibility with structure.  This was the perfect balance for me as a busy mom with multiple schedules and sometimes unpredictable dinner schedules. Fast forward: I’m stronger, calmer, and actually excited for dinner. The secret? A Mediterranean meal framework that takes 20 minutes to plan and works even on soccer/baseball/or other commitment-type nights. I’m teaching the EXACT framework LIVE on January 27th @11am CST– for free.  The workshop is called Meal-Plan Mediterranean: Nourish to Flourish Workshop. Sign up at https://suroselfcare.myflodesk.com/workshop and you’ll get a downloadable workbook that we will use in the workshop! You don’t have to figure this out alone, mama.   Next Steps: Step 1: Join our supportive community of moms looking for tips, strategy, and encouragement at the free Facebook group Self-Care for Busy Christian Moms: HERE Step 2: Become an Insider right HERE  or type: https://suroselfcare.myflodesk.com/insider Step 3: Leave a quick review for the show on Apple podcasts.   Step 4: Share this episode with another busy mom that needs words of encouragement to see the big picture and to find strategies for their self-care! I am always so encouraged to know that this podcast is helping you!  Together, we can encourage one another for long-term strength and health because it matters to our families and for future generations to come.    I appreciate your kindness, God bless!

27 | 5 Ways Exercise Will Boost Mental Health This Winter
Is the cold outside keeping you from exercising?  Do you feel down, or anxious, or stressed?     In this episode, we’re going to tackle why exercise is so important to keep up even in the winter and how that boosts your mental health!   Winter’s shorter, darker days can impact mood, energy, sleep, and stress—regardless of where you live. Exercise is one of the most powerful tools to combat Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Outdoor movement mimics light therapy, boosts serotonin and endorphins, lowers cortisol, improves sleep, enhances brain function, and activates the parasympathetic nervous system for stress management. Even indoor movement helps. Combined with eating well, Mediterranean diet recipes, strength training, and good time management, regular winter exercise supports both mental and physical health and builds resilience through the colder months.   FREEBIE LINK: https://suroselfcare.myflodesk.com/tracker If you enjoyed this episode, please take 30 seconds to give a 5 star review as this really helps to spread this to another busy mom that needs words of encouragement to see the big picture and to find strategies for their self-care!

09 | 5 Points to Eating Well With a Mediterranean Diet
Hey Friend! When you think of Mediterranean foods do you only come up with gyros and souvlaki in your mind?  Does Mediterranean food conjure up a picture of a table with a plate of hummus with pita bread on the side and a backdrop of bright white Greek buildings and a clear blue sky?  While hummus, pita, gyros and souvlaki all are part of the Mediterranean cuisine (Egyptian, Lebanese, Greek, etc), the Mediterranean diet is a broader and a loose guideline based off of the Mediterranean cuisine.   In this episode, I will go over the details of what a Mediterranean diet looks like.  If you want clarity on what that looks like and how to implement it in your daily life, this is the episode for you!

Self-Care for Busy Moms I Healthy Food & Lifestyle, Time Management, Stress Reduction Methods, Exercise Routine Are you struggling to stay consistent to a healthy diet? Do you feel frustrated with the setbacks from poor food choices that affect your body and mood? Is it a challenge to maintain motivation to exercise regularly given your busy schedule? I am so excited you’re here! This podcast will help you find ways to have habits for physical health and fitness, and for mental and spiritual wellbeing so you can have long-term strength and greater peace! Hey, I’m Susan. A friend of Jesus, a wife, and boy mom. For many years, I struggled with finding time, motivation or the discipline to exercise regularly or have any self-care. My life was increasingly busy with my kids and their schedules and I lacked consistency and habits that put importance on self-care. My striving to keep everything going smoothly in my family pushed me to ignore many things…balance, friendships, mental drain, overwhelm, mild depression. I finally realized that in order to have physical health as well as mental well-being and peace, I needed to slow down and tend to myself in order to be there for my family. I focused on physical therapy and strategies to relax and de-stress through self-care. This started a decades-long process of learning to find what works and does not work for me. I created a strategy that works with ME. A step by step process that I could actually stick with. Even when there are times I fall off, this process helps me get back on track faster so that I can stay the course over time for long-term health and strength. And I’m ready to share it with you! If you are ready to finally implement strategies for busy moms so you can have… Physical Health and Fitness Mental and Spiritual Strength Discipline and Consistency Personal Time and Relaxation - this podcast is for you! Grab your step counter and lace up your shoes, it’s time to walk together!
