Actionable Solutions
How to Tell The Difference Between “Mom Tired” and “There’s Something Wrong With Your Body” Tired
- When you are “mom tired,” on a scale from 1 to 10, you are at a 5. Maybe you want to do something but you really don’t feel like it so you don’t.
- When you have “something wrong with you” tired, you may have slept a full night’s rest but you wake up groggy and can’t get out of bed. You can barely get through the day. When your partner comes home, you have nothing more to give because you physically can’t.
How to Figure Out What is Going On With Your Body
- We don’t guess, we test.
- DUTCH TEST: This a test that does a mapping of your hormone pathways and adrenals and shows women exactly what is going on.
- Test is best performed before you get pregnant or 90 days after you have stopped breastfeeding.
- After the test is performed, you can create a plan on how to optimize your health.
Hardest Decision To Make as a Mom
- Balancing career and motherhood when she loves both so much. When she had her first son, she went back to work after two weeks and basically raised her son in the office. It ended up taking a toll on her body, which ultimately lead to her body breaking down.
