Ep 72 Morning or Evening? The Simple Routine Shift That Helps Busy Women Reclaim Calm

from Happy Thriving Mums | Self Care tips and Inspiration for Health, Happiness and Fitness in Motherhood · host Amanda Reidy | Perimenopause Coach, Radiate Fitness

What is your view of routines? Does the idea of creating the perfect daily routine feel exhausting before you even begin? Or do you feel like everyone has the perfect daily routine… while your real life feels messy, rushed and completely unpredictable? If you’re a busy working mum navigating perimenopause, the pressure to optimise every hour of your day can actually make stress and overwhelm worse.In this episode, we explore why trying to create the “perfect routine” often backfires in midlife — and what to do instead.We talk about a much simpler approach: anchor routines.Rather than fixing your whole day, choose one supportive moment — either a morning start or an evening reset — to help regulate your nervous system and bring more calm into your day.Inside this episode Amanda covers:👉 Why traditional 'productivity' routines don’t work well in perimenopause👉 How hormonal changes affect energy, focus and stress tolerance👉 The difference between top-loading and bottom-loading your routines👉 Two simple examples you can try immediately👉 How choosing just one anchor point can help you feel calmer and more in controlIf life feels overwhelming right now, this episode will remind you that you don’t need to overhaul everything. Sometimes the smallest shifts create the biggest sense of calm.✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨Inside my Reconnect, Rebuild & Thrive Programme, we begin by helping you understand your body — so you can stop fighting it and start supporting it.
