Menopause and Motherhood | Perimenopause support, weight loss, quick workouts, home education tips for busy mums
Welcome to Menopause and Motherhood – the empowering podcast created especially for menopausal mums who are ready to reclaim their health, confidence, and sanity… all while managing the beautiful chaos of family life – including homeschooling. Navigating menopause is a journey, and when you’re also supporting your children’s education at home, it can feel like you’re juggling a hundred things at once. But this phase of life is also a powerful opportunity to embrace change, prioritise your well-being, and rediscover the version of yourself that’s been tucked away under the to-do lists. I’ll guide you through my simple 3-step process to help you lose weight and start feeling like you again – focusing on the three core pillars: rest, fuel, and move. 🌙 Rest: Because when you’re educating at home and dealing with sleep disturbances, burnout is real. We’ll explore practical tips to improve your sleep, manage stress, and restore balance – so you can show up fully for your family and yourself. 🍏 Fuel: You’ll learn how to nourish your body with realistic, hormone-supportive nutrition that works around family meals and homeschooling routines. 🏃 Move: Let’s make movement simple, effective, and even enjoyable – with routines that can fit around your day, whether you’ve been teaching maths or chasing toddlers. Join me for expert interviews, real-life stories, and practical advice that speaks directly to where you are – in the midst of menopause, motherhood, and maybe even math lessons. Subscribe to “Menopause and Motherhood” today – because thriving through menopause and homeschooling isn’t just possible – it’s powerful. www.wellnessandwellies.com wellnessandwelliesuk@gmail.com The information contained herein is for informational and educational purposes only, and should not, and in no way should, be perceived as or relied upon in any way as medical, mental health, health care or nutritional advice.

Hey Mumma!
Welcome to your Monday Motivation:
I am passionate - I give my whole heart to everything I do.
Is this possible?
I don't always think so? This is why I think we have to set our priorities and consider what are we called to do.
What are you called to do? What/who are the important things in your life that you are pouring your passion into?
"For where your treasure is there your heart will be also" \Matthew 6:21
A warning comes later in the chapter that if our treasure is on earth then our heart and attention is on earthly matters. Place our treasure in heaven
We need to read more into this chapter because it is referring to Jesus warning not to stockpile temporary treasure on earth but working towards Godly goals.
What are your inner thoughts and motivations? are they to serve God or for our own gain?
I hope this blesses you

Hey Mumma!
Today I am interviewing my great friend Christine from the Milspouse Mastermind podcast.
Christine Hinrichs is a military spouse, mom of three girls, marketing strategist, former coffee house owner and lover of all things coffee. She is the host of the MilSpouse Mastermind Show, a podcast dedicated to helping military spouses get unstuck and craft lives with purpose regardless of their circumstances.
After four moves and three babies in four years, she became an “accidental stay at home mom.” She began a journey to figure out how she could use her skills and story to do something that would both light her up and impact the world for good, and do it in sustainable way that worked for her family.
Her mission is to help military spouses learn to thrive, and show them how they can use their skills, passions and experiences to impact the world for good, without sacrificing what matters most. She believes every day is better with a cup of good coffee.

Are you feeling peaceful?
Are you finding your feet in your goals and your resolutions?
Are the kids back at school and you have a bit more time to drink a cup of tea in peace?
Hey Mumma
Todays quote - I am peaceful - I feel tranquil and quiet in body and mind.
Do you feel at peace in your body?
Do you feel peace in your mind? (this is something I struggle with ALOT)
Hope you do you find peace in your mind?
"And you will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You because he trusts in You" Isaiah 26:3
Love and light

Hey Mumma!
Are you fed up of dropping your kids off at day care and missing your kids firsts? Do you wish you could be a work from home mum?
If 2022 is the year that you want to leave your job and be a work from home mum then this is for you!
On the podcast today I interview Arianna Vernier.
Arianna Vernier is a mama and former elementary teacher turned business mentor for women who want to quit their 9-5 and start working from home as a virtual assistant. Arianna was able to ditch the classroom right after giving birth to her daughter, and began working from home as a Freelancer/Virtual Assistant.
Within a very short time she replaced her teaching income, and it is her mission to help other moms do the same so they can be there to witness all of their child’s firsts and build a business that works around their schedule. She is the host of the Ditch the Classroom podcast, where she shares tools, tips, and strategies to help you start your Ditch the Classroom journey and take your income to 4-figure months and beyond.

Hey Mumma!
It is part two of the day in the life series where I share how I personally cycle sync my nutrition, fitness, workload and motherhood.

Hey Mumma!
How are you doing? How are you getting on with your goals?
Are you struggling? Don't worry so many of us stumble at this time of the year so maybe you need to be a bit kind to yourself?
Todays card is - I am compassionate
I move with consciousness and care and practice self forgiveness to love myself as I am
The associated scripture is:
The lord is gracious and full of compassion slow to anger and great in mercy" Psalms 145:8
If God shows us mercy then we can be merciful to ourselves too!
If it hasn't gone quite how you planned that is ok. Dust yourself down and carry on don't beat yourself up!
Remember I am here for you too, come and connect in the free group or grab one of my 1:1 coaching spots check out the links below.
