Anti-Resolution Health & Energy Reset (Day 2)

Let’s ditch the resolutions and tap into a more fun, flowy, actually aligned way to set goals for the new year.


Because I don’t know about you…but 2026 is about to be my most vibrant, joyful year yet ...and I’m not getting there by forcing, restricting, or white-knuckling my way through another January.


This Anti-Resolution Reset started as a daily email mini-series, and I decided to bring it here so you can listen, feel into it, and engage in whatever way fits your real life best.


Each day you’ll see a new daily episode drop, each one with a simple, aligned action step designed to help you walk into 2026 feeling clear, energized, and actually supported in your dreams and goals.


✨ Today, we’re practicing how to listen to your body's wisdom and deep intuition, instead of building goals based on external pressure or metrics.


This is all about slowing down to hear the true desires waiting underneath all the noise.

40. How To Get Healthy When Your Family Isn't On Board

If you’ve been trying to change your health but keep getting stuck because your partner isn’t interested, your kids are picky, or you feel like you’re doing it all alone… this episode is the real-talk convo you've been needing.

We’re talking about the real reason it feels so hard to stay consistent when your family isn’t on board, and how to shift out of settling for their standard and into choosing your own.

You’ll learn how to take aligned action even when no one around you is making changes, and how to root your health journey in what you value instead of waiting for permission or support.

Inside, we dig into:

  • Why waiting for your family keeps you stuck
  • The mindset shift that helps you lead yourself with confidence
  • Practical ways to eat and live healthier without making it a family battle
  • How to hold your boundaries with love- and without guilt


This is your reminder that you don’t need your family to change for you to change. Your health journey gets to be sovereign, supportive, and aligned with the kind of energy you want for your life.

35. Stop Forcing Meditation: Nervous System Healing Game Changers

This one is for the non-meditators...or for the mamas who are ready to build out their nervous system toolbox beyond just deep breathing.

Most people don't realize that the nervous system is receiving signals from the body all the time...and one of the most powerful ways to regulate isn’t through the mind at all- it’s through your biology. In this episode, we dive into practical, non-meditation tools that help your body feel safe, nourished, and steady.

We’ll explore:

✔️ Why blood sugar balance is like a hug for your nervous system

✔️ How circadian rhythm (your body’s internal clock) sets the tone for stress resilience

✔️ The gut-brain connection and how your microbiome talks directly to your nervous system

✔️ Hormones, cortisol, and why your body craves safety before it can thrive

✔️ Everyday food and lifestyle shifts that send your body the signal: “You’re safe.”


If you’ve been told nervous system healing has to mean meditation, journaling, or breathwork- but you need something different- this episode will show you a new path.

31. Is It Anxiety...Or Is It The Gut? The Gut-Brain-Hormone Connection That Changes Everything

Here’s the truth, mama: anxiety isn’t just a fixed personality trait, or even just a "neurotransmitter deficiency". Anxiety is actually a symptom — a big flashing signal from your body saying, “hey, something’s off down here.”


And what we think is anxiety may actually be a symptom of...the gut.


In this episode (part 1 of 2), we’re unpacking the gut-brain-hormone connection that so many moms miss when they’re told to just “manage stress". We’ll dig into how your digestion, hormones, and blood sugar can all team up to create those anxious, overwhelmed, edgy feelings — and how shifting your nutrition and lifestyle can actually re-wire that cycle over time.


In this episode, we explore:

✔️ Why anxiety is not your identity—it’s often a symptom with root causes you can rebalance

✔️ The gut-brain connection and how gut bacteria literally impact mood, neurotransmitters, and stress response

✔️ How poor gut health can throw off your hormones (hello estrogen dominance + low progesterone) and trigger anxiety

✔️ The sneaky role of blood sugar dips in fueling panic-y, “I’m about to lose it” feelings

✔️ Key nutrient deficiencies adding to this anxiety spiral


Next episode, we will be exploring key diet and lifestyle strategies to heal anxiety from the inside out, so be sure to SUBSCRIBE so you don't miss it!

30. Why Moms Stay Burned Out: 3 Toxic Beliefs I Had to Unlearn To Finally Thrive In Motherhood

In today’s real-talk episode, I’m peeling back the layers on 3 toxic beliefs I had to UNLEARN to finally reclaim my energy, identity, and joy as a mom.

These patterns were keeping me stuck in old patterns of self-sacrificing, self-sabotage, and deprioritizing my needs- and chances are, you’ve absorbed them too (because mom culture loves to reward burnout).

We’re diving into:

✔️The hidden cost of being “the convenient mom”

✔️Why codependency sneaks into motherhood without us realizing

✔️The subtle trap of settling and accepting exhaustion as normal

✔️Tangible ways to rewire and unlearn these toxic beliefs

✔️You’ll leave this episode with clarity, validation, and a renewed sense of how to actually rewire old patterns to access your full aliveness as a mom.

29. AI Meal Planning for Tired, Busy Moms: Save Time, Eat Healthy, Boost Your Energy

Dinner stress, grocery list brain fog, and yet another night of chicken nuggets because you couldn’t think of anything else? Not anymore.


You don’t just want dinner on the table- you want your energy back.


You want to feel calm, present, and like you’re actually living your life, not just making it through the day.


But right now? You’re burnt out, running on coffee and sugar, and staring into the fridge at 5:30 wondering how to feed everyone.


In this episode, I’m showing you how to make AI your behind-the-scenes meal-planning assistant so you can save hours, ditch the decision fatigue, and put balanced, kid-approved meals on the table without the stress.

You’ll hear exactly how I use it to:

✔️ Create quick, high-protein breakfasts my kids actually eat

✔️ Turn pantry randomness into dinner magic

✔️ Make budget-friendly grocery lists grouped by store section

✔️ Upgrade comfort foods into nutrient-packed, hormone-friendly versions

✔️ Get “restaurant ready” without menu overwhelm

✔️ Even shift my mood fast when I’m frazzled before school pickup


📌 Prompts you can steal today:-

  • “Give me 5 easy, balanced breakfast ideas with at least 25g protein, ready in under 10 minutes, that use minimal dishes and my kids will actually eat.”
  • “Create dinner recipes from what is already in my fridge/pantry.”
  • “Make me a grocery list for 5 dinners that are high in protein, use seasonal produce in August, and take under 30 minutes to make. Group it by store section and keep the total under $150.”
  • “Take my favorite meal (creamy chicken alfredo) and make it healthier with more protein, more veggies, but still delicious.”
  • “I have 5 minutes before school pick up and I’m feeling grumpy and frazzled. Help me shift my energy fast while sitting in my car.”


Think of this as your ultimate busy-mom shortcut- saving your time, brain space, and sanity while keeping your family well-fed.

Bonus for This Week Only: Meet Sasha -my personal Thrive Mama GPT. She’s like having me in your back pocket, planning meals, creating healthy routines, and customizing it all to your cycle, family, and lifestyle.

28. Breaking The Self-Sabotage Spiral: Why Your Habits Don't Stick

You know what you should be doing for your health… but somehow, you keep falling back into the same old patterns.


You start a new habit and abandon it within days. You meal plan, buy the supplements, swear this time will be different, and then...it fizzles out.


In this episode, we’re breaking down the deeper reason why your wellness habits aren’t aligning with your actual desires. Spoiler: It’s not a lack of discipline, and it's not a laziness problem.

We'll explore:

⚡ The sneaky ways self-sabotage shows up (even in your “healthy” habits)

⚡ Why you abandon what you say you want

⚡ What your nervous system has to do with it

⚡ The secret benefit to staying stuck in the same spirals

⚡ The real key to creating habits that stick (with compassion, not pressure)

______________________________________________________

You're going to need to start with the foundations that actually support your energy, hormones, and nervous system.
