Day to Day Self-Care

Published on: 12th January, 2025

Motherhood is full of moving parts, and sometimes, self-care feels like just another thing to add to the list. In this episode, Jill and Linda explore how self-care can fit into the everyday, even when life feels overwhelming. From joyful family moments to recognizing when to slow down, they reflect on the little things that make a difference.

In This Episode:

  • How family playtime can unexpectedly refill your cup (even if it’s just a game of laser tag).
  • The hidden ways we practice self-care without even realizing it.
  • Why small habits, like taking a walk or reading, matter more than spa days and retreats.
  • Managing the weight of daily responsibilities without burning out.
  • Letting go of the idea that self-care has to be structured or planned.

Self-care doesn’t always look like what we expect. Sometimes, it’s as simple as recognizing the little wins in your day. Like sitting down for five quiet minutes or sharing a laugh with your kids.

We would love to hear from you. Find find Jill on Instagram @mamaoutspoken and https://www.mamaoutspoken.com/ and Linda @hellolindabonney or https://www.lindabonney.com.

Until next week, we hope you can unstuck your muck!

About the Podcast

Mucked Up My Self-Care Podcast
Real, Raw and Unedited Conversations From Two Global Moms/Mums
A podcast for moms about the real, raw, and unscripted perspectives of guilt-free self-care by two moms across the globe. This unedited podcast is real life and their personal experiences told in friendly conversation style. Advocating for all moms who have mucked up their self care.

There are so many others out there that aren't successfully solving the real problem of trying to figure out what self-care is. We want to bring to light the reality of what self-care can look like for moms who struggle to fit it in, don't know what will work for them, and the ways that it hasn't worked. We want to have conversations about the guilt we feel when we are pressured to mother ourselves when we don't know how and aren't given the support to in our society today.
