Summary

Today I’m going to get you all caught up my current life craziness, which mostly entails the #damndog’s diarrhea and more IVF “fact finding”. From there we’ll dive into meditation.

Today, I’ll share with you: Why I’m meditating 5 days a week How to keep meditions super simple The meditation app I’m using (that I love!) The benefits of meditation How meditation can impact weight loss, sleep, depression, anxiety, quality of life Why YOU should meditate too – even if you suck at it Related Links: Article: 10 Science Based Reasons to Start Meditating Today Headspace App Learn more about your ad choices.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Shameless Mom Academy. I'm your host, Sarah Dean, and I'm here to give you and other
0:09.7	passionate, dedicated moms the tools you need to bridge the gap between motherhood and living the life of
0:14.5	your dreams. I'm also here to help you be a little more shameless every day, because if you
0:19.8	aren't building a life, you're extraordinarily proud of. What kind of legacy are you building? So let's dive in.
0:26.4	Hello, shameless moms. So happy to be here today. I've decided that coming to record or sitting
0:33.0	down to record at my desk is like my happy place. It's my reward. It's where I want to go when my list
0:39.8	of everything to do is way too long and way too overwhelming. All I think about is, I just want to

0:50.9	falling in love with because I'm wanting to use it to get out of doing all the

1:25.5	So if you go to the Shameless Mom Academy on Instagram,
1:28.2	you can see the pretty gift the dog left me earlier this week. You'll know, I don't even have to
1:32.8	tell you anything more than that. You'll know when you find the right picture. So this week,
1:37.3	and then next week I'm in Austin for half the week, which is going to be a totally fun girls trip.
1:41.8	I never get to do girls trips. Like I did one for my 40th birthday and was the first one I've done in forever. And now one of my really good
1:48.4	girlfriends is turning 40. And so we're going for her 40th birthday, we're going to Austin,
