Join Shawna and Cara as they spill the tea on their recent fitness challenge and the reality of fitting movement into a busy mom's life.

This episode is a raw, honest look at "mom possible" workouts, letting go of the pressure to "bounce back," and finding joy in movement, even when it's messy.

They share personal stories, including a hilarious one about how braless and jumping should be illegal but not for the reasons everyone thinks…

And they offer compassionate advice on how to get started, even if you feel like you've tried and quit everything.

TLFMTR (Too Long For Mom To Read):

• A "mom possible" workout is a flexible workout. It's about finding time to move whenever you can, not just first thing in the morning when babies need feeding and attention.
  

• The first five minutes are the hardest. Once you start moving, it's easier to stay in motion, and the true reward is how you feel afterward.
  

• It’s okay to not love every second of a workout. Consistent movement is about embracing the "suck" until it sucks a little less, and the feeling of accomplishment afterward is worth it.
  

• Movement doesn't have to be punishing. There are many ways to be active, and finding a joyful activity like dancing can be more effective than a high-intensity workout you dread.

What would movement look like if you redefined your expectations and focused on what's "mom possible" for you right now, without the pressure of a "bounce back" fantasy?

Remember, your kids don't need a perfect mom; they need a resilient one.
