You guys are going to love this conversation with Liz Henderson (the tough love mom). We are talking about mindset, motivation, consistency, discipline and beyond!  Meet Liz:  Mom, wife, Christian, host of the Tough Love Mom Podcast, and consistency coach for moms. Even with an active life and healthy habits, I gained a lot of weight in both of my pregnancies, so once I was postpartum, I had a long road ahead of me when it came to weight loss. Leaning on discipline, consistency, and simple habits, I lost 80 lb in 1 year after my 1st and 70lb in 14 months after my 2nd and now help moms get disciplined and lose weight using the same principles, tools, and mindsets I used on my journey. I believe that a lot of the messaging in mom culture can overly enable "the struggle" when really, we are so resilient deep down. So as "the tough love mom" I don't beat around the bush because I care enough about mamas and their health - physical, emotional, and mental - to be straightforward and call out your strength.   Connect with Liz Website: mrslizhenderson.com Instagram: @mrslizhenderson Podcast: The Tough Love Mom Podcast Connect with Sarah  www.yoursimplybiglife.com/course   

I don't know about you, but being a mom is absolutely one of the hardest (and also most rewarding) but HARDEST things that I have ever done n my life!  At times it can feel like we are on a rollercoaster and the energy that it takes to keep up is just a lot. That is why I am so grateful for women whose calling it is to help a mom out when it comes to parenting with intention! :) Women like Lindsay Ford. Lindsay helps moms get their kids to listen without yelling, threats, or bribes. She believes there’s no “right” way to parent, but there is a right way for you, your family, and your child and she’s here to help you figure this out.
