Self-care ideas for the busy entrepreneur woman

Standard

Are you a busy entrepreneur woman who wishes you had more time for yourself, but just can’t seem to even find a minute to spare?

Are you constantly on-the-go, running from one committment to the next, and when you are finally ready to relax, it’s already way past your bedtime?

You wake up every day feeling exhausted because you didn’t get enough sleep.You have to make breakfast and prepare yourself for a real job that you have to get to while you build your business. You have kids to feed and prepare for school. You slave all day at a job you hate, but you know you can’t quit because your business isn’t successful enough yet. You get home after a long day of work, feed the kids, bathe them, do their homework, put them to bed, and work on your business until the wee hours of the morning. You do this day in and day out, with no end in sight and you have lost hope. And then you wonder why you’re feeling so stressed out and on edge all the time.

I get it. I have plenty of clients who, just like you, are in the beginning stages of entrepreneurship. My clients came to me in the same place that you are in now…feeling exhausted, stressed out, and ready to give up.

I decided it was time to share with you exactly what I do, and what I teach my clients to do, so that you can finally start feeling ENERGIZED, RELAXED, and like you’ve totally got this. Because you deserve it!

What I eat when I have no energy…

Standard
Do you ever have those days where you just feel like you’re walking around like a zombie?
I had one of those days just last week, and it was really annoying because I knew that I had had a good night’s sleep. What the heck?
No matter what the reason was, I felt REALLY sluggish. The easiest thing would have been to just lie down and take a nap, but I couldn’t do that because I had work to do!
So this is what I did: I made a green smoothie!

Energizing Green Smoothie Recipe

1 cup unsweetened almond milk
1-2 cups spinach (or other greens like kale, chard)
1/2 banana
1/2 cup of fruit (frozen or fresh)
A pinch of cinnamon
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp chia seeds
1 tbsp natural peanut butter
*Optional: 1 scoop of protein powder
I absolutely LOVE green smoothies because they are delicious, nutritious, very versatile, and refreshing during these hot, summer months!
Green smoothies are my go-to meal when I’m feeling sluggish because they have a ton of vitamins and minerals and they keep me full for a long time, which keeps my energy levels up.
Another great thing is if you are not a fan of green vegetables, you can ‘hide’ them in your green smoothie! I like green smoothies better than juice because blending your produce keeps the fiber whereas juicing gets rid of it.
There are so many other foods that increase your energy; you don’t have to rely on caffeine or other stimulants!
