5 Simple Steps to Reset Your Week

✨ Real Life Reset

Last week was a mess. Work took over all my spare brain cells and everything else seemed to fall behind. I barely shared on socials, the laundry was chaos, and I ate like I hadn’t seen a vegetable in a month. But it’s Monday, and I’m trying again — even if it’s messy.

If you’re also crawling your way out of a week that chewed you up and spit you out… pull up a chair. Here’s how I’m gently resetting after surviving mom-life mayhem.


💪 My Reset Priorities This Week

I’m not reinventing my life — just realigning. Here are the five things I’m focusing on:

  • Moving my body at least 3x — Even if it’s a quick 15 minutes in the living room.
  • Getting my meals back on track — Nothing fancy, just making sure I eat actual meals instead of toddler leftovers.
  • Cleaning one closet of the house at a time — Because trying to organize and fold clothes with three kids = immediate mess
  • Actually using my calendar again — When I plan, I’m calmer. Period. Less to think about!
  • Posting to TikTok even if it’s just one take — Imperfect action > no action.

These are enough. I’m enough.


🏃‍♀️ How I’m Moving This Week

Let’s be real — I’m not waking up at 5am to hit the gym. Here’s my doable plan:

  • Monday – 20-min upper body + core circuit while the kids play in the morning
  • Tuesday – Walk with the twins in the double stroller
  • Wednesday – Core rehab day (hello, mom pooch recovery)
  • Thursday – Aiming for a 10 minute stretch before bed (fingers crossed)
  • Friday – 25-minute strength workout to start my day strong!

My goal? Move because it feels good. Not because I “should.”

🍳 What I’m Eating This Week

I batch-prepped some basics on Sunday (okay, during nap time chaos), and also plan to make doubles when I do cook during the week. Here’s the rough plan:

Breakfasts

  • Egg + veggie breakfast burritos (prep once, eat all week)
  • Protein iced coffee with almond milk
  • Greek yogurt with berries and granola

Lunches

  • Chicken sausage & over salad kits
  • Tuna + avocado salad with crackers
  • Cottage cheese snack plate with fruit & pretzels

Dinners

  • One-pot Mexican skillet
  • Baked salmon with rice & green beans
  • Grilled Shrimp Salad (on Pizza night – still feels like a treat!)

Snacks

  • Rice cakes + almond butter
  • Protein bars
  • Mini cucumbers + hummus
  • Chia seed pudding (if I remember to make it)

Pro Tip: I like to write a cheat sheet on the fridge of whats on rotation this week, so I know what I’m looking for when I’m hungry and don’t have the brain cells for a decision.


🧠 My Mindset Reset

Right now, I feel… tender. Stretched thin. But hopeful.
I’m choosing progress over pressure.

This week’s mantra: “I’m allowed to start again — as many times as I need.”


If you’re in the thick of it too — I see you. Let’s give ourselves softness and space to try again.

You’re not behind — you’re human
