✨ 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
