This was waaay easier than I thought it was going to be! My little helper insisted on being a part of this project so we measured out the ingredients together and I did the stovetop part.

Stop your scroll! This can save you. One day, I d Stop your scroll! This can save you.

One day, I decided to stop letting my circumstances determine the outcomes that I wanted.

Here he was mother to four, barely sleeping at night, feeling Uncomfortable in my body and sluggish. 

Dare I say it but I felt old too.

Then I just decided that, even though I was in this stage of life, I was still going to achieve my goals and have a body that I wanted.

I changed who I was on the inside.

I started telling myself that I was vibrant and beautiful and full of energy and life.

All the sudden I started to believe it.

I ate healthier automatically.

I lost over 20 pounds.

If you want to make changes in your life, no matter where you are, follow @christinajwarren for more.

Then I woke up one day (after weaning and a full night’s sleep-this is key too) and I decided that I am a vibrant, youthful, energetic, healthy, fit and beautiful person.

I reprogrammed the driver (your subconscious mind).

Then the car (aka my body) started moving.
Steps, supplements and clean eating are just the branches.
The root is identity.

Your body doesn’t do what you say you want.
It follows who you believe you are.

The subconscious runs the show. Habits stick. Results compound.
Manifestation speeds up.

Drop “identity” in the comments or DM me IDENTITY to get the script that’s helping me reprogram mine.

Now a mother of four creating a home, a business and a life I once couldn’t picture.

Identity is always evolving.

Most people try to change their life while holding onto an old identity.

The real shift happens when you allow yourself to become someone new first.

Someone is always going to be upset with you changing.

That’s just how it is.

But you’ve got to be brave and listen to your inner guide.

There is still so much becoming in you.

If this resonated, join me @christinajwarren for more becoming.

Here I was stressing over not getting the exact ri Here I was stressing over not getting the exact right cake and ice cream he wanted at the store this morning!

I had baby on me at the bakery section, calling my husband asking about the kind of ice cream and then I saw the number candles. 

UM…he can’t be 10! He must be 9!

He didn’t even notice or say anything until we mentioned it after the party! Didn’t even phase him!

I’m always trying to get it so perfect for them but they don’t even care about a lot of the things I stress over.

I make a lot of mistakes these days. These are also the best years of my life, ya know?

I’ve always been so hard on myself, always chasing perfection and now I’ve let myself relax a little. 

They’ve taught me that.
They just want us there. 

If this is you, join me over @christinajwarren and see you there.
