Katie: Hey and welcome to the 700th episode of the Wellness Mama podcast. It’s laborious to consider that it has been 700 episodes since I started in 2014. And I’m so honored that I’ve gotten to talk to so many unimaginable individuals on this podcast and to share these conversations with you. And I assumed it could be becoming on this episode to speak by means of very briefly some life classes, some new instructions and shifts, and a few issues of letting go which have occurred for me within the final couple of years.
I do know I’ve been a bit extra faraway from the web world as I’ve gone by means of some private transitions. And that’s additionally led to some potential transitions in how I present up as Wellness Mama on-line. And so I wished to simply vulnerably share from that at this time. And I additionally requested you guys on Instagram any questions you had, and people have been truly those that got here up probably the most round life shifts, the latest divorce that’s occurred in my life, how co-parenting goes, plenty of issues associated to that. Additionally how or if that may have an effect on Wellness Mama. So that’s my focus on this solo episode at this time.
I’d say beginning broadly with a the place we’ve come from type of chapter. I really feel like the previous couple of years have been a journey to extra built-in well being. I, at first, spoke rather more solely concerning the bodily well being aspect as a result of that’s the place my vitality and intention have been going. And I do suppose that that aspect is essential however I even have come to consider it’s extra nuanced than I assumed. Actually extra individualized and customized and rather more impacted by psychological and emotional well being than I used to suppose.
Like I mentioned, for years, that was the one piece I’ve actually centered on. And as I’ve shared some in different episodes, nothing even in bodily well being shifted considerably for me till I additionally addressed the inside aspect, the psychological and emotional facets and actually labored on letting go and resolving these after which noticed these shifts manifest in my bodily life as effectively.
I really feel like I’ve personally modified considerably, even within the final 100 episodes. And like I mentioned, I’ve taken some private time to undergo these large changes in my life and to simply be current with my children. And my private lesson and theme for the previous couple of years has concerned a complete lot of letting go and of studying tips on how to consciously domesticate peace. And it’s been stunning, actually generally difficult, and it’s nonetheless a journey in progress. However I’m excited to have the ability to share extra of it with you, together with right here on the podcast and on wellnessmama.com, as a result of I’ve realized in the previous couple of months particularly that in some methods I’ve stored giant elements of myself out of Wellness Mama for years, partially for concern of judgment and likewise partially as a result of I apprehensive that some elements won’t be relatable or attention-grabbing to different individuals.
So particularly, I haven’t talked actually a lot publicly about my divorce and the large and investing that I’ve been doing for over a decade and actually having fun with as a result of I apprehensive that these wouldn’t be, like I mentioned, useful or relatable. And once I actually thought it by means of, I spotted that most individuals will undergo some type of large life or relationship transition of their lives and that almost all ladies I do know are literally concerned in finance or enterprise or have some type of enterprise or hustle that they do on their very own. And so I’m truly actually excited to get to begin opening up extra to different facets of my life that I’ve beforehand been a bit bit extra non-public about. That doesn’t imply I’ll most likely share particulars of my children’ lives on-line as a result of I nonetheless really feel these are theirs to share. However I’m excited to open up and discuss extra subjects and hopefully a extra holistic strategy of all that goes into motherhood and of being a lady.
Actually the opposite subjects are usually not going away both and neither is the content material. However I do hope this may deliver some new and attention-grabbing route and company.
Now on a private stage. The largest life shift for me personally, after all, has been the divorce. And like I mentioned, I’ve shied away from speaking about this publicly for 2 causes. First, that it felt like a failure and I had some large feelings round that. And it was robust to face personally with out public opinion for some time. And so I took a while to try this. However secondly, I wished to verify earlier than I did that I may maintain my very own boundary about not ever saying something adverse about him publicly, which was a vow I made in the course of the course of, wherein I deliberate to uphold. And I truly do suppose that regardless of some robust patches, we have been truly capable of navigate it very respectfully and whereas staying largely actually sort even towards one another and attempting to maintain the children and their transition in it in addition to the main focus.
I really feel like for me personally, it was an awesome instance and apply of understanding that I actually solely do have the flexibility to regulate my very own ideas and actions and feelings, and that I may nonetheless select kindness towards the opposite one that was probably additionally hurting and experiencing his personal feelings round all the pieces.
And for anybody else who’s navigated this life change or is perhaps navigating it now, two issues I discovered particularly useful have been vowing to by no means let him make an enemy out of me. Regardless of how troublesome the method bought, I used to be very agency in not letting it ever escalate and never letting him make an enemy out of me as a result of I may a minimum of management my aspect of that equation and likewise to by no means converse negatively about him, particularly to our youngsters, however to anybody outdoors of remedy.
One piece of recommendation that we discovered useful that got here from a therapist was we every designated a small listing of protected those who we have been capable of speak by means of our emotions about with them, which included therapists and shut associates, however we determined to not vent or converse poorly about one another outdoors of that. And I really feel like that was useful to us personally and likewise to our youngsters, as a result of I do suppose it may very well be hurtful for them to listen to adverse issues about both of their dad and mom. And I solely know my aspect of that, but it surely appeared to assist my feelings to have these boundaries and to decide on kindness even once I was actually pissed off.
We additionally managed to navigate a comparatively sophisticated logistical and authorized course of with out opposing attorneys or courtroom dates or preventing. Actually, we pre-negotiated and even pre-organized all of the belongings in a approach that appeared truthful and sort to each of us. And we have been capable of simply have a choose log off on all the pieces. And it looks like that is maybe uncommon, not the best way it usually goes. And it’s one thing I would share extra about sooner or later if anybody’s .
I learn the guide, Acutely aware Uncoupling, and I discovered that recommendation useful, however I additionally may find yourself releasing a guide sooner or later that’s a bit bit extra in depth about the best way we went by means of the method, as a result of I do suppose we discovered some distinctive methods to navigate it that appeared to restrict the emotional and monetary turmoil that may typically accompany an uncoupling. So like I mentioned, that’s one thing I would share extra of sooner or later. I do know it received’t apply to everybody, however I additionally know from all of the individuals who confirmed as much as assist me that it does apply to lots of people in at this time’s world.
And for me now, that additionally signifies that I’ve transitioned to life as a single dad or mum and all that goes with that. He now lives in one other state and he comes again to see the children about as soon as a month, however I’m largely accountable for primarily all the child logistics and care in the course of the month for more often than not. And it’s truly solely been a reasonably small adjustment, particularly with older children who can drive now. And I’ve tried to simply hold the give attention to being current with them. I reread the guide, Be Right here Now, and I attempt to use that as a type of motto of kinds for myself, is simply be right here now and benefit from the moments as a result of it’s unimaginable how fleeting they’re. And my oldest now turning 17. It’s actually, it’s wild to suppose that I solely have a yr left with him as a toddler.
And on a strictly private stage, solely as a result of I bought a number of questions on this on Instagram, I’m undoubtedly not centered on coming into the relationship scene, I feel is the way it was worded on there. And I actually acknowledge that preferences can shift in main methods, however I don’t presently see myself ever eager to get married once more. I bought married very younger. I had six children fairly shortly all by the point I used to be 28. So I’m truly simply actually having fun with with the ability to sleep alone, having a tiny little bit of solitude and leaning into peace and simply being current as a lot as potential that may occur in a busy home with six children.
And I additionally bought plenty of questions on that be aware concerning the children and the way they’re doing and tips on how to assist children navigate laborious adjustments that may be painful and really feel out of their management. And this was, after all, one of many important issues throughout this course of as effectively, I feel, for each of us. And whereas I actually don’t suppose a change like this comes with out some stage of adjustment for everybody concerned, I do suppose that we have been each capable of put our personal egos apart and be capable to assist the children navigate it fairly effectively, too.
The massive piece of recommendation I’d return to right here is admittedly simply holding agency to that boundary of not talking or performing negatively towards or about one another. This was a chunk of recommendation that we each bought in remedy very instantly. And we have been even instructed in no unsure phrases that when one dad or mum speaks negatively concerning the different to the kids, it’s not solely painful for them, but it surely’s truly a type of youngster abuse. And so we each labored and did plenty of work internally to verify we had our personal emotional assist constructions and other people in place in order that we weren’t counting on our youngsters for emotional assist and as a substitute may very well be there for them and present up as a protected and non-judgmental house as they course of their feelings as effectively.
And definitely there have been feelings to course of on all fronts. For me, a few of the feelings I felt and processed throughout that have been issues like my disgrace about it being a failure and being in opposition to the opinion of essential individuals in my life, like my dad and mom or the faith I used to be raised in. I confronted disappointment, which was an enormous childhood set off for me. That was type of my worst-case state of affairs was ever disappointing anybody. And likewise guilt as a result of I spotted that working by means of my previous trauma, I spotted that I used to be undoubtedly an element that led to shifts in me that contributed to the wedding ending. I additionally had anger and frustration and lots of different feelings at totally different occasions that I started working by means of and hopefully launch and that appear rather more peaceable now. And I hope the identical for him. We have now been capable of keep amicable and have common conversations concerning the children and each present up for them. And I’m extraordinarily grateful to have a co-parent who was keen to place apart the anger and the large emotions and to work collectively for the children, even now as co-parents. So I do know that not each state of affairs that is ready to occur, however actually I’m grateful that we have been each ready to try this on this time.
On the co-parenting aspect, we do nonetheless verify in with one another and have conversations concerning the children. And the very best recommendation I may give right here is goes again to maintain that focus of by no means making enemies of one another, utilizing sort phrases and maintaining the children’ wants as a spotlight. We did map out a reasonably complete co-parenting plan collectively, and fortunately we’re nonetheless aligned on most kid-related issues. And when disagreements do come up, which is fairly uncommon, we’ve been capable of have conversations and determine an answer. And we each, I feel, keep the concept that we’d somewhat put our personal delight apart and make choices which can be greatest for the children somewhat than get the courtroom system concerned. And I do know that does require each individuals being keen to try this, and I’m tremendous grateful that we have been capable of.
And I’m additionally, as I mentioned, keen to open up much more about these subjects. So please let me know within the feedback or on Instagram if this can be a matter you want to hear extra about sooner or later, or I’d love to listen to truly your ideas and recommendation should you’ve navigated one thing comparable as effectively.
I’m nonetheless, I really feel like in some methods, as cliche because it sounds, attempting to determine who I’m on this section of life and who I’m going ahead. However aye. Have been journaling lots. And I’m, like I mentioned, I’m nonetheless attempting to pinpoint it, however I had a stream of consciousness journal that appeared to love contact on a minimum of a few of the locations I’m proper now.
And I wrote this the opposite day that I’m in my peace period, my unashamed period, my inside fireplace period, my candy and savory period, my generally salty period, my consuming espresso in mattress period, my may get a pet tiger period, my home vegetation in every single place period, my blankets and pillows period, my harem pants period, my unbrushed hair and salty pores and skin period. My put on garments I truly love and never care what different individuals suppose period. My artistic period, my studying issues that talk to my soul period, my journey period, my run by means of the forest barefoot period. My ravenous period, my wild period, my untamed period, my fierce period, my rebellious period, my mild and nurturing period, my lioness period, my embracing the female period.
And as you may think, that many private life shifts additionally led to some enterprise shifts as effectively. And on the Wellness Mama aspect. I had a few of these tied into my private ones. And as I mentioned, I spotted I used to be solely displaying floor stage elements of myself as Wellness Mama and it began to really feel inauthentic. And I misplaced a few of the ardour I had within the early days. Actually, I just lately additionally journaled and wrote an obituary for the individual Wellness Mama was up to now and I used to be absolutely ready to let it go. And as soon as I had, I spotted that maybe this can be a caterpillar loss of life of kinds, and that the brand new model rising is one which I’m enthusiastic about once more. I feel that is going to contain, like I mentioned, speaking extra overtly about subjects that I’ve talked about. Getting again to nurturing the guts of group and connection prefer it was within the earlier days. And I wished to share simply as a private be aware, the obituary I wrote as I’m sharing my journey by means of this to make clear no precise people died within the making of this obituary. Simply my on-line persona, Wellness Mama is just not going away. It’s simply shifting into hopefully a extra dynamic and genuine place. And I spotted simply as motherhood is a place of origin and loss of life, we lose who we have been earlier than motherhood. It looks like maybe a rebirth into a brand new period for Wellness Mama as effectively. And I’m excited for that. However what I wrote within the midst of the large shifts within the turmoil was.

So all that to say. I’m excited for the brand new instructions. I’m extremely grateful to these of you who’ve been with me on this journey for therefore a few years and for the years to come back and what it is going to seem like.
And I additionally, like I mentioned, it’s not about bodily well being to me anymore, however there have been some recurring themes of the final 100 episodes that I wished to simply briefly spotlight earlier than I finish this podcast. So these will probably be type of my prime takeaways that have been recurring in an excellent variety of the previous 100 episodes. Actually, the frequent thread right here is that the straightforward and free issues are sometimes probably the most impactful however typically missed as a result of they’re so easy. Recurring themes are issues just like the significance of sleep and of getting morning daylight. And there’s plenty of element and nuance that goes inside these and lots of podcasts on these subjects. However getting morning daylight particularly is one which I like to recommend actually because I feel that is truly good for physique, thoughts and soul to get outdoors as quickly as potential after waking up, even on a cloudy day, even for simply 5 minutes and get pure mild in our eyes, not by means of a window. And the science says this truly does assist our circadian rhythm and enhance sleep and melatonin manufacturing as effectively. It’s additionally very useful for youths in case your children have hassle sleeping. And it’s fully free. So it’s one which I and lots of company have beneficial.
One other theme you guys are most likely uninterested in me saying by now’s that we’re every our personal major healthcare supplier. And I’d just lately add Healer to the listing. And that whereas we will work with wonderful medical doctors and practitioners, and I hope that we do after we want them, that on the finish of the day, the accountability at all times lies inside us. However the magnificence is that we have already got inside us all the pieces we want. And type of puzzle piece along with that. Is the concept I’ve talked lots about, about our physique is at all times on our aspect. Dr. Cassie Huckaby talked about this as effectively in her episode. I feel particularly for these of us who’ve skilled autoimmune illness, it’s straightforward to really feel like our physique is out to get us. And he or she had an awesome reminder that our physique is at all times on our aspect. It’s at all times attempting to heal. It’s at all times attempting to dwell its greatest life. And that if it wished to kill us, it may do it in lower than a second. It could be prompt. And it’s not, it’s at all times attempting to be on our aspect. And so we will work with it to seek out the issues that it wants that it doesn’t have, or to take away the issues which can be maintaining it from with the ability to heal.
After all, in that there’s the theme of addressing stress, which is a shifting goal in at this time’s world actually, and one which I’ve skilled fairly acutely the final couple of years, however a really precious and worthwhile pursuit as effectively. There’s been plenty of speak within the final 100 episodes of the significance of protein particularly, however in adequately fueling our our bodies with sufficient diet. And statistically, that is particularly an element for girls that we want extra protein than many people are getting. We’d like extra vitamins than many people are getting. And in at this time’s world, it’s very straightforward to get a eating regimen that’s probably sufficient energy, however not sufficient vitamins, which sends stress alerts to our physique and might make it troublesome to stability hormones or to achieve a wholesome weight or to sleep effectively. And this can be a shifting goal for me as effectively. I’m untraining years of not consuming sufficient and studying tips on how to correctly gas my physique and hearken to what it needs.
In parallel with my very own journey, there’s been a recurring theme of the significance of addressing the psychological and emotional facets of well being. And like I mentioned, whereas I ignored these completely for many years, I’ve now come to see them as a minimum of equal or probably extra essential elements of the general well being equation as a result of they tie in so on to bodily well being. And I’ve many episodes on this already and lots of extra coming sooner or later as effectively. I’ve additionally talked lots about minerals and had many company discuss these as effectively. I exploit ones like Eidon and upgraded formulation and LMNT, however I do suppose that many people may benefit from much more minerals than we’re getting as a result of our our bodies are literally not 60% water, however 60% saltwater. And plenty of us are merely not getting sufficient minerals to adequately replenish. That is very true should you sweat lots, whether or not or not it’s within the sauna, whether or not or not it’s athletics, whether or not or not it’s residing in a sizzling local weather. I learn the statistic that you would be able to lose extra minerals in 5 years in these situations than the common individual can in a lifetime. So I’ve seen firsthand how rather more vitality can come after we get the mineral equation proper, and it’s one I typically encourage now.
