#44 - Stop Living in Go-Mode: Rewire Your Morning Routine, Lower Cortisol, and Feel Grounded As A Mom
In a world that glorifies hustle, achievement, and doing more, it’s easy to forget how to just be.
In this episode, we dive into the science of slowing down without losing your drive as a mom. You’ll learn how to reprogram your mornings to reduce cortisol, protect your energy, and reconnect with your peace — using real tools grounded in neuroscience and movement science.
You’ll discover:
Why your phone scroll is training your brain for stress (and how to break that loop)
What your theta brain state really is and how to use it to rewire your habits
How to reset your cortisol curve so you stop feeling anxious or wired all day
Simple morning and evening rituals that calm your nervous system and rebuild trust in your body
Why it’s okay to want more — as long as you can be content with now
How to enjoy more time with your kids in the present moment
