  • Who will START Monday the 3RD on this challenge with me? 😍😍
    I actually began it the day after filming this video which was the middle of last week, and let me tell you, I am SO excited, (and I’ll admit, nervous,) to get up at five five days a week for the remainder of the year.
    My dreams have already grown, my days feel so smooth! By the time the toddlers are awake, I already feel like I am so far ahead of whatever the day entails.
    Let me know below In the comments if you’re in!:)

    Be careful pushing yourself so hard while you're expecting. Sometimes some things just need to be placed on the back burner. I used to do this before my daughter was born and I'd love to try, but I'll forgive myself if I can't. I am no good at waking up before the house, but I do two late nights a week to catch up. I really enjoy the quiet time and being less afraid to wake anyone up as they're in deep sleep at that time. I'm up until around 1am on those nights and it really helps. Just a little something for the night owls 👍🏾

    These past few days I’ve been having my husband wake me up before he leaves for work, around 5:30. I’ve been loving the peace and quiet of the mornings. I find my days more productive and I’m in a better mood if I wake up before the kids!

      The first trimester I am completely wiped out. Definitely much more energy after that phase is over. I am planning to sleep in Saturdays and Sundays and then potentially take a nap or two during the week as well. I also have been trying to go to bed at a better time which helps remarkably!:)

    awe that's amazing!! i am brand new to your channel but the Lord put it on my heart last week to start waking up at 5am to spend with Jesus and get my homeschool momma mind on before our day begins. it makes a huge difference waking at 5. I have 6 children, homeschool, home keep and love my husband! I have been obsessively studying biblical womanhood for nearly six years now and it HAS TRANSFORMED ALL OF OUR LIVES. God is so good and faithful to lead us into ALL truth!!

    My daughter is 5 months old and there are days where I wake up at 4-5am naturally and have trouble getting back to sleep. I don't think I would ever set an alarm to wake up at that time. But I've found a lot of fruit in getting up when I wake up at that time naturally. Getting a head start on cleaning, making breakfast, time to study, morning sunlight is good for our circadian rhythm.

    I've never been a morning person. I get up early if I HAVE to, but otherwise our whole family enjoys a slower, more relaxed pace in the mornings.
    That said, though, I *have* been waking an hour or so earlier most mornings this week. My youngest (2yo) is starting the process of giving up naps ..... Meaning she sometimes skips her daily nap (2 of my others stopped at this time too. My oldest stopped even earlier). So, I needed to move my Bible study time to earlier in the day. It's been working great and is the best way to get my day going. 😊❤

I try to stay pretty in tune with my body and take naps when needed.

      This is so silly. Sure… “natural circadian rhythm” this and that. But hustle culture? Get out with that. She is waking up an hour earlier to set aside time for herself. The rest of her day is dedicated to her home, children, and husband. Most unselfish and feminine thing a woman can do is take care of herself so she is balanced for her family.
      I personally already wake up at 5:30 so that I can fill up my cup with the word of God, work on my business, and set up the day to go smoothly for my family. I make fresh breakfast, water the garden, feed the chickens, and start the coffee for my spouse. When he is up at 9, I give him a morning smoothie and the cash he needs for the day.
      The rest of the day is dedicated to our son and the home. There is a lot involved in that, especially when you are semi remote from a city.
      Some prioritize rest. Some prioritize and water a dream.
