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.
