Hey Friends! 💗
Welcome to this week’s edition of My Life As A Mom Newsletter.
October is moving right along, and if your days have been filled with family responsibilities, work, errands, and trying to find a little time for yourself, you are not alone!
This week, we’re keeping things simple. We’re making room for cozy moments, finding joy in the little things, and remembering that taking care of yourself is just as important as taking care of everyone else.
Grab your favorite drink, get comfortable, and let’s catch up!
🍂 THIS WEEK’S MOM-LIFE RESET
Small steps make a big difference.
You don’t need to reorganize your entire life in one day. Start with these five simple goals:
- Choose three priorities for the week.
- Plan a few easy meals to make dinner less stressful.
- Tidy one small space in your home.
- Spend intentional time with your family.
- Schedule at least 20 minutes just for yourself.
Your reminder: Progress over perfection, Mama!
📚 YOUR NEXT COZY READ
Fall is the perfect excuse to grab a mystery, thriller, or romance novel and settle in for a little reading time.
Create your own cozy reading night with a soft blanket, your favorite snack, and a book you can’t put down.
This week’s reading challenge: Read for 15 minutes before bed instead of scrolling through your phone.

🧖🏽♀️ THE $10 SELF-CARE CHALLENGE
Self-care doesn’t have to be expensive!
This week, challenge yourself to enjoy one small treat for $10 or less.
Ideas to try:
- A new sheet mask or affordable beauty product.
- Your favorite coffee or tea.
- A new journal or colorful pens.
- A relaxing bubble bath.
- A thrift-store treasure or a few flowers for your space.
The goal isn’t to spend money. It’s to make time for something that brings you joy.
🏡 A LITTLE HOME INSPIRATION
Let’s make home feel a little cozier this week!
Light a favorite candle, refresh your living room, organize your nightstand, or add a touch of fall decor. Small changes can make everyday spaces feel special.
Remember, your home doesn’t have to be perfect to be a beautiful place for your family.
🍷 WINE AFTER BEDTIME
Welcome to your reminder that you deserve a moment to unwind, too!
When the house gets quiet, put on your favorite playlist, open a good book, and pour something you love—whether that’s a glass of wine, sparkling water, or a comforting cup of tea.

💌 THIS WEEK’S MOM ENCOURAGEMENT
You are allowed to be a work in progress while raising a family, building your dreams, and figuring life out.
You don’t have to do everything today. You don’t have to have all the answers. And you don’t have to feel guilty for needing a break.
Keep showing up for yourself, too. The little things you do every day matter.
