Hit a wall

I’ve been going to the gym now for a good few months and I’ve hit a wall, it’s becoming repetitive and not seeing the changes that I once was! I’m stuck and need help in what to do and motivation 😭

I use the app The Sculpt You and it's amazing. They do monthly challenges that include the gym and home workouts. They're really challenging and the community makes it fun! Check out their Instagram

Maybe try switching it up; try some different exercises to break up the monotony so the sessions are more fun. I know it’s hard when you’re not seeing progress and sometimes that can happen! If you’d like you can message me, I’ve been studying with NASM-CPT and I’d be happy to try to help you possibly pinpoint why you may have plateaued 🫶🏻

First, take the week off and take the pressure off yourself in case you’re experiencing a little burnout. When you come back to it try a new approach.

Then, up your favorite cardio. Run or bike a more difficult course and do it for longer maybe. You probably can do more than when you first started. Then, however you’re doing muscle building, dumbbells, lifting, body weight training, do more reps and add a little more weight. If you’re really stuck for what to do, try out a class somewhere that targets what you want to get better at. Personally, for more targeted muscle sculpting, I like doing guided Barre or Pilates classes bc they’re more dance inspired. Try out some new things and see what makes it more fun for you.

Also, might be worth reviewing your protein intake and seeing if you need to increase at all. Good luck mama🤘❤️

Mama needs new friends ✨

Hey mamas 🤍 I'm going to be honest — I'm at a season in my life where I'm craving real, genuine friendship. The kind where we actually check on each other. Where conversations go both ways. Where we can laugh, vent, cry, and just *be* without it feeling one-sided.

I'm a stay at home mom of 6 (yes, 6! 👏🏼) and my days are full but my cup feels a little empty in the friendship department. I'm looking for women who get it — the chaos, the beauty, the exhaustion, all of it.

If you're a mom who values deep, reciprocal friendship and you're also out here looking for your people — drop a 👋 below. Let's actually get to know each other. 🤍

Leaving your baby

Has anyone else not left their baby to be looked after by someone else (not dad) yet? I still don't feel ready but am being told I should be by now

Random but when you use a vibrator do you need to hold your lips open for it to touch the bean ?

It gets annoying because even if I open my legs I still need to hold the lips open to touch the bean and I have to do it the entire time my lips are literally sealed closed 🤣
