We’ve all got crazy lives. As a working mom, I couldn’t imagine piling more on my plate. Lauren Hooper’s plate was overflowing and spilling everywhere. Besides being a wife and mom of two, she’s a performer. Singing, acting, dancing - she can do it all. H
✨ Getting back to herself and self-care: being a mom of two small kids and navigating so many things. 02:18
👩🏽🎤 Lauren is a performer in musicals, film, and TV: building back the strength and stamina to be able to do the things she loves. 03:47
🧘🏽♀️ Anatomy associated with singing benefits from yoga and running. After pregnancy, she needs to work daily on her abs just to be able to sing and perform. 06:05
🤰🏽 Diastasis recti and postpartum recovery: you don’t have to lose weight, but you have to re-knit abs together. 09:37
😍 Settling and grounding for mental health: meditation, connecting with family, tracking her time, and having an accountability friend. 11:45
⏰ How tracking time is helping Lauren: the process of tracking time and tracking emotions on a daily basis to get structure and create a more realistic schedule. 14:07
❗ Try to apply time audits in your life. 20:42
🎭 Moments of a performer’s job can be glamorous, but most of the time it is hard work and unpaid preparation for auditions. 21:33
😫 Being a recovering perfectionist and having issues with procrastinating: getting burned out and tired. 23:06
👉 Thinking about what are the things that are giving the greatest impact in the least amount of time is the perfect baseline to change your patterns of behavior and life. 26:30
🦾 Think about your body as a beautiful machine: choreographing life to run smoothly, but we are humans with emotions, not machines. 27:21
😇 Therapy has been amazing for Lauren: rationalize how to work through the problem and chase your base emotion to see what is lacking in your life. 30:33
🤩 Emotions are helpful guides of where to go and acknowledge that: trust your intuition. 35:41
🗣️ We have been trained over time to be disconnected from our body and internal wisdom: nine out of ten times, intuition is your body trying to speak to you. 37:25
