Have you ever noticed that the version of you at night makes plans that your morning self dreads? Or that your weekday self is disciplined, but your weekend self throws everything out the window? You're not alone! In this episode, I explore the disconnect between different versions of ourselves and how aligning them can make life so much easier.

I’ll share:
✔ Why our nervous system plays a role in this disconnect
✔ Small, doable steps to support your future self without needing perfection
✔ How this applies to missionary moms who are still navigating real life
✔ Simple strategies like setting yourself up for better sleep, a 10-minute evening reset, and creating morning shortcuts

Your growth doesn’t have to be all or nothing—just small intentional choices can shift everything. Tune in for practical, realistic ways to show up for yourself and set yourself up for success.

Takeaway Challenge:
Tonight, try one small thing to help your future self. Maybe it’s putting your phone away earlier, laying out your clothes, or doing a quick tidy-up. Pay attention to how it changes your morning!

So many of us unknowingly tie our worth to what we do—our achievements, our callings, even how our kids turn out. But the truth is, self-worth and self-confidence are not the same thing—and if we don’t understand the difference, we’ll keep chasing external validation that never quite fills the gap.

In this episode, we’re diving into:
✔️ The difference between self-worth and self-confidence
✔️ Why external achievements (like temple recommend worthiness, appearance, or service) don’t define your inherent worth
✔️ How perfectionism is just an attempt to "earn" self-worth—and why that never works
✔️ A powerful mindset shift that separates your worthiness from your actions

💡 You don’t have to do more, be more, or achieve more to be worthy. You already are.

If this episode resonates, share it with another missionary mom or friend who needs this reminder. And if you’re working on shifting your self-worth, tag me on Instagram—I’d love to hear how this is landing for you!

Your nervous system is not being dramatic—it’s doing its job, constantly asking, "Are we safe?" And when your missionary leaves, that question can send you into stress overdrive. Whether you're lying awake composing emails to the mission president at 2 a.m. or zoning out on social media, your body is just trying to cope.

But here’s the good news: You can get back to steady, sane, and like yourself again with four science-backed (and surprisingly simple) tools:
✔️ Sleep – Your brain’s reset button. Learn why it’s the first thing to go and how to reclaim it.
✔️ Sunlight – The free mood booster that helps regulate your stress.
✔️ Movement – Shake off stress (literally) and reset your system like nature intended.
✔️ Breath – Your built-in calming tool—if you actually use it!

We’ll talk about how these tools helped me during my son’s home MTC, why tracking my reactions changed everything, and how one small shift can make a big difference in how you show up—for your missionary and yourself.

✨ Take a deep breath, mama. You’ve got this.
