109: A Mom's Guide to Self Care with Robynn Powers

109: A Mom's Guide to Self Care with Robynn Powers

It’s July right now and I am spending a lot of time camping, so to prepare I recorded this episode in May. I decided to plan ahead so I could just enjoy nature and time away without stressing about having podcast episodes due. This is actually very relevant to the guest and topic today, which is why I mention it. I prioritized what I wanted and needed for my own wellbeing in July and planned ahead to make it happen. My guest, Robynn Powers, is a health coach, personal trainer, nutrition coach, pre-and-post natal exercise specialist, and group fitness instructor who works with moms to help them implement daily strategies to improve their energy, strength, and confidence. It’s all about prioritizing and deciding on your own self care.

Robynn and I have a wonderful conversation about moms - but really this can apply to everybody - choosing to prioritize their health needs for the benefit not just of themselves but their families too. Robynn has several pieces of advice on how to re-balance busy mom lives so things can get done without sacrificing mom health, but her single biggest piece of advice is sleep. Get more sleep. Sleep well. What she says makes a lot of sense because sleep affects everything in our lives from focus to hormones. She acknowledges that we can’t just get more sleep all at once but we can start small, with just going to bed a half hour earlier every night, and weigh the long term benefits of sleep over the short-term gain of a half hour to ourselves. But we also talk about mindset, about choosing ourselves as a priority, and about how to make new choices stick. Robynn’s advice and knowledge is so practical and useful that I know everyone will benefit from hearing it. Small changes can make such a large difference to our overall health and we are worth it.
