Honesty for better Health

Bright Families ·

2025/10/10

We need a better conversation about maintaining health through middle age. Too many ladies are trying to do all the things alone and they are left with zero time and brain space to care for themselves. We need more honesty from moms who are navigating this well - not only about what they do, but about what they DON’T do, to care for their health.

Bright Families ·

2025/07/11

Are you bored, actually? If you find that walking, hydrating and the general advice isn’t catching your interest, maybe you should be honest about your drive to succeed and excel. Don’t be shy, and don’t feel like only the “right” reasons are ok to say out loud. You can want to be fitter, stronger, faster, and you can use this as a strength when you pursue fitness and health goals.

Bright Families ·

2025/07/04

How long to see progress depends on where you’re starting and how long it’s been since you were able to care for yourself well.

Make a copy and try it for yourself! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12Z5zG_7ZUGaaGWP0ZYZTQ9GoMa5lZZ9xYa98uq5Kb-g/edit?usp=drivesdk
