0:00.0	Welcome to Motherkind. We are proudly sponsored by wild nutrition's women's supplements. I am your host, Zoe Blaski.
0:14.3	And this is the show that is going to grab you by the hand and be your guide through the wild ride that is modern motherhood.
0:23.0	Today, it is a solo with me and I want to explore a really simple but potentially powerful question. Can five minutes a day,
0:29.6	just taking five minutes a day for you, really transform your motherhood? Because what I've learned
0:34.5	over the last eight years doing this work is that we all want to be happier mothers. We want to enjoy our motherhood. We want to be calm and connected with our children.
0:43.1	We want to get to the end of the day feeling grateful, not resentful and guilty. And this was the
0:48.3	premise of my debut book, Matherkind, a new way to thrive in motherhood. Maybe you've got a copy.

0:55.9	that we have to prioritize ourselves too, that we have to manage our energy, our mindset and regulation.
1:01.7	We have to become ninjas with boundaries and asking for our needs to be met to and saying no,

1:37.0	experience of motherhood in just five minutes a day? Because you guys, my readers, were telling me
1:41.5	this new approach is incredible, Zoe, I love it,
1:50.8	but keep falling back into old patterns I keep forgetting. And it was this one message that someone sent me in DM and it said, Zoe, I wish you were in my ears every day reminding me
1:57.5	of this stuff. And it clicked what my next big project needed to be. I needed to find a way
2:03.3	to teach Motherkind in five minutes a day, a way that fits into your busy day. And that's what I've
2:09.8	developed. You guys over on Instagram, help me name it. It's called Five Minute Motherkind. And it is
2:14.1	21 days of me in your ear for five minutes a day teaching you how to
