"Feeling good starts with food. When you eat in a way that nourishes your body, you don’t experience cravings and you don’t feel hungry, restricted, or deprived. You feel satisfied and energized. You begin to crave the food that makes you feel good. As you begin to feel better from the inside, your mind becomes clearer. You start to feel hope, and that feeling of hope opens up all kinds of possibilities for your health and your life." - Cara Clark Joining me today is renowned nutritionist and wellness educator, Cara Clark. From advising A-list celebrities to guiding Olympic athletes, Cara has helped her clients feel better in their bodies by moving away from “dieting” and instead understanding the connection between what we eat and how we feel. In this episode, we dive into various topics such as limiting information consumption, regulating blood sugar, navigating indulgences (while maintaining self-awareness), understanding disordered eating, embracing movement that resonates with you, and much more. ------------------------------- Links Discussed in This Episode Order a Copy of Minimalist Moms: Living and Parenting with Simplicity Can't Stop Talking About: Castor Oil Compress Connect with Cara: Instagram Website Enjoy this Podcast?

Joining me today for her second appearance on the show is author Maggie Smith. Maggie joined me back in November to discuss her book, You Could Make This Place Beautiful, which I'll be sure to include in the show notes. But today she's here to talk about her newest children's book, My Thoughts Have Wings. She wrote this children's book in hopes that kids could rewire their thoughts and develop positive thinking habits at bedtime. So today we're going to discuss the inspiration behind her book, the importance of bedtime rituals and strategies for managing stress and negative thoughts. Maggie also shares from her positivity in daily life.  ------------------------------ Links Discussed in This Episode Order a Copy of Minimalist Moms: Living and Parenting with Simplicity Substack: Minimalist Moms Podcast  NEW EBOOK | Let's Simplify: Newborn + Postpartum Previous Episode: “I Am Out With Lanterns Looking For Myself” with Maggie Smith (Bonus Episode) Book: You Could Make This Place Beautiful by Maggie Smith Book: The Five Principles of Parenting Connect with Maggie: Instagram Website Book: My Thoughts Have Wings by Maggie Smith Enjoy this Podcast?
