Summary

For those that are new around here, I release bonus episodes that serve a niche part of my audience, so if this topic is something that doesn’t fit what you’re looking for - check out the other episodes that dropped this week with Tidy Dad (Tyler Moore) or Chelsi Jo Moore about systematizing your life (OR join me back here next Tuesday for a conversation that you don’t want to miss!)

Did you know that having children can actually change a woman’s brain? It’s true! Studies have revealed physical changes in brain scans of women before and after motherhood. Today, I’m joined by author and coach, Hannah Keeley, who shares practical, science-backed strategies to help moms align with their brain’s natural wiring. Instead of battling against it, Hannah shows how moms can harness their brain's power to reclaim a life filled with high energy, positivity, and remarkable productivity!

If you're pregnant postpartum or planning to be, or you've got a friend in that season, listen

up. There's a lot in motherhood that we can't control, but your nutrition, that's a powerful

0:08.9

place to start. That's why I've been raving about the company needed. I wish I'd had needed

0:13.8

when I was in that chapter. Their starter plan is a total game changer, a comprehensive prenatal

0:19.4

multi, plus the high quality omega-3 designed to meet

0:22.7

the real nutritional demands of pregnancy and beyond. It's not the bare minimum stuff that most

prenatals offer. This is optimal evidence-based nourishment that actually supports mom and baby.

wellness. And personally, because I'm out of the prenatal and postpartum, I love their women's

0:43.6

omega-3, collagen, and stress support. They have an entire section for women's health supplements

on their website. So if you've been looking for a supplement that checks all the boxes,

0:53.1

head over to this is needed.com and use code minimalist for 20% off your first order. That's T-H-I-S-I-S-N-E-D-D-com and use

so the strategies don't work anymore. Nothing is wrong with you. I tell people, I tell moms,

1:16.8

it's not you, it's your brain. We have this thing called free floating anxiety, where it's this

1:23.1

nervous tension. You can almost feel the buzzing in your body and you can't pinpoint why. What's

1:29.0

making me anxious, I really don't know. The mom brain has an extraordinary imagination.

1:34.6

Only problem is we're using it to create the worst case scenarios. Now, that's because remember,

the priority of your brain is keep your kids alive. Mom brain does not go away. It doesn't, like, there will be no time when your brain goes back to normal.

You will have this the rest of your life. Our brains literally get tired. It burns more glucose than any organ than our body.
