As October sweeps in with its cozy vibes and pumpkin spice everything, it’s the perfect time for us moms to take a moment (or five) to prioritize our wellness. Here’s a simple relatable guide to keep you feeling your best this month!
Listen:
Grab your headphones and tune in to “Call Her Daddy” featuring Kamala Harris (Episode 409), released on October 6th. Trust me, hearing a powerhouse like Kamala share her journey in politics will remind you that we can juggle motherhood and our ambitions. You might even find yourself feeling a little more empowered to conquer your day—no cape required!
Watch:
Settle in for a well-deserved binge of “Nobody Wants This” on Netflix. This series dives into the crazy world of desire and expectations, and as moms, we know all about that! Between laundry and playdates, it’s a light-hearted reminder to laugh at the chaos and embrace what makes us, well, us.
Read:
Pick up “Girls That Invest” by Simran Kaur for some serious finance inspo! It’s time to put that leftover birthday money from your kid’s party to good use. This book breaks down personal finance for moms like us—because who says we can’t be financially savvy while tackling snack time?
Drink:
Savor a warm pumpkin spice latte (because basic is sometimes the best!). Bonus points if you can enjoy it while hiding in the car for a few moments of peace!
Practice:
Get moving with a walk outdoors in the crisp air—either solo or with a fellow mom friend. Nothing like a brisk stroll to clear the mind and get those endorphins flowing! And who knows? You might even bump into another mom who shares your love for hiding in the bathroom!
Eat:
Indulge in Trader Joe’s dark chocolate peanut butter cups—your new guilty pleasure! These little bites of heaven are perfect for stashing in your diaper bag (or hiding in the back of the pantry) for when you need a sweet pick-me-up after a long day of being supermom.
This October, let’s embrace these wellness ideas to fill our cups (and maybe even find a little extra joy in the chaos). What self-care rituals are you excited to try this month?
