Motherhood Makeover: Recent Episodes
Kristin Foust
Motherhood Makeover is for busy moms who feel overwhelmed and want to feel & look their best. We talk ways to simplify taking care of yourself physically, emotionally, and spiritually so that you can feel your best and love who you see in the mirror.
Your host Kristin Foust is a mom of two and a certified nutrition coach and personal trainer. She found herself early on in motherhood overwhelmed, tired, stressed and emotionally eating. She realized she was putting herself last on the list every time leaving her not feeling great about herself and who she saw in the mirror.
When you don't take care of yourself, you can't show up as the best mom and spouse. Kristin is on a mission to change the face of motherhood - from exhausted, stressed and hopeless to one filled with joy, peace and health!
In honor of episode 100, my message is don't give up. Maybe you haven't started, you're in the messy middle, or it seems it's too good to be true. Dont. Give. Up. Find me on instagram and facebook @kristingfoust.
It might surprise you when I explain what builds up or tears down your self trust. This is the most common thing I see among women today (myself included). Today I'm challenging you to keep your word and work on building up that self trust.
The holiday season is upon us! This year I want you to appreciated yourself, because you deserve it - even if no one else appreciates you. If you listen to this podcast, you want to improve some things about your life & motherhood experience so I want to let you know this is the easiest way to get started making moves towards your dream life....appreciate the heck out of yourself.
For 7 days, I want you to stop grazing, endless snacking, and taking bites, licks and tastes of food throughout the day. This includes scraps off your kids plates. Why? It's important for your physical health & if you have been experiencing unintended weight gain.
Do you need weight loss to be a healthy mom? Probably not, for some maybe. I wanted to go over why I talk about weight loss on the podcast - because these days it's kind of controversial when it comes to including self love.
As moms it is so common to see what everyone else seems to be excelling at, and tell ourselves we "should" be doing that too. This week I'm challenging you to give yourself some grace and find more supportive thoughts to use instead.
Beginning the journey to healthy eating can feel overwhelming, daunting, and impossible if you approach it with an all or nothing view. Even more so when you have a family to take care of. I'm sharing the 4 steps I use to make healthy eating easier, and that will help you take the first steps to making the changes without it depriving you of things you love. Making changes to healthy eating will always be uncomfortable, but these steps will help make it feel easier! I'd love to hear if these worked for you & what your biggest takeaway was. Message me on instagram or facebook @kristingfoust
Hey mama, what are you waiting for? No really, what are you using as your reason for not getting healthy, doing the thing you said you would, or going towards your dream. Your kids need you to, other moms need you to. Most importantly the little 4 year old you needs you to. Stop waiting to change things in your life, stop waiting for the perfect time. It's never coming & you deserve the life you want.
Anxiety (or stress) is so common with moms, I myself have been working through it since becoming one. Many lead you to believe it is just a condition of your mental health and don't talk about the impact on your physical health. Today I'm sharing 6 ways anxiety is impacting your physical health - adapted from this article at https://www.talkspace.com/blog/ways-anxiety-impacts-your-physical-health/ (Talkspace). Heart conditions & high blood pressure Stomach & GI issues Chronic muscle tension Insomnia Blood sugar spikes & weight gain Decreased immune system function https://www.cdc.gov/pcd/issues/2021/21_0123.htm (CDC study referenced)
This week I'm continuing the concept that while you can't control a lot of what happens to you - especially in motherhood - you get to choose how you respond. Negativity in motherhood seems to be all over social media and lead you to believe it's the only choice. Motherhood is hard and it will always suck. But it doesn't have to be like that. I'm giving you a micro challenge this week of being aware of what you think and say - and choosing a new mindset thought. This is inspired by https://www.instagram.com/tessaromero_ (@tessaromero_) on instagram.
Does health at any size really exist? Today I'm sharing my view on health at any size, and the facts that back it up.

When life throws you curveballs (and it will) - how do you handle them? That woman you admire on social who always looks happy and at peace - she experiences them too. The difference might be in how she views those situations. By asking yourself one question - how is this happening for you? You can change the whole outlook on your life. I share a small example of how I used it this weekend and how you can use it on your life.

This is a reply of day 1 from the Back To Your Healthy Self live 3 day workshop I did on instagram and facebook last week. Day 1 is about why NOW is the best time to make healthy habits and how to plan (because if you fail to plan, plan to fail!).
It might feel frustrating or disappointing but it's the truth. No one is coming to save you. To change your life you are going to have to take responsibility for where you're at and where you want to be. Today I'm inspiring and motivating you to know that realizing this is the first step to your freedom and living the life of your dreams!
This week I'm giving you a little tough love and challenging you to do the thing you've been telling yourself to do. Why? Because it builds self trust again with yourself. Listen in for some motivation because mama you've got this!
I'm excited to introduce you today to Mary Zargarian, I was first on her podcast a year ago and it was what inspired me to start my podcast!

This week is fun! A lot of times - giving what you need (appreciation, love, etc) can be found by giving it to someone else.

Tag me on instagram what you're doing for your random act of kindness! https://www.instagram.com/kristingfoust (@kristingfoust)
It doesn't matter where you came from, what your history is, what race or religion. You are worthy of your dreams. Today my goal is to fill you with hope and faith that your dreams ARE possible and that you are 100% WORTHY. Many times your thoughts will try to keep you "safe" by keeping you where you are. Change is what will make your dreams a reality, but change can feel so scary. Know that you are not lazy, broken, undeserving. If your dream is weight loss, this is what I specialize in coaching women with. If you've tried a million times it can feel hopeless like it's not meant for you. But it is and you deserve it. Email me at kristin@kristinfoust.com to set up your free consult call.
The past year or so has been filled with so much divide - and more than ever we need more love and support in the world. So this week I am challenging you to hear and listen to someone who has a different opinion or view on something than you. I know this can feel scary but I share why it's important and different levels of how to ease yourself into it.
If you have ever missed completing a goal or challenge for yourself, I'm sharing how I didn't accomplish my goal, what happened, and how I handled it. I also share how to apply this to your life and what that could look like. It's normal to feel a wide range of feelings before, during & after missing the mark. That just means you're human, not a failure. If you've been looking for help with your weight loss and health goals - I am taking on new clients for August. DM https://www.instagram.com/kristingfoust (@kristingfoust) on instagram or send me an email at kristin@kristinfoust.com.

It's common to hear about health and it is mostly about what you're eating. You could eat the PERFECT diet and you could still have poor overall health and develop disease if these 6 other things are not in order.
