Making major life changes as a mom can feel overwhelming, but embracing new seasons with intention can be incredibly rewarding! In this episode, we’re bringing you behind the scenes of our personal journeys—Dr. Elana’s big move from California to Idaho, Steph’s life with a brand-new puppy, and how we’re both navigating parenting, career shifts, and personal growth as we head into 2024.

We’ll discuss how to create a home that fosters creativity and connection, the challenges and joys of transitioning to a new environment, and our thoughts on homeschooling versus traditional education. Plus, Steph shares her experience balancing work with self-care, and why she’s diving deep into nutrition for both her family and her new furry friend!

As always, we get real about the highs and lows—how we’re prioritizing slowing down, making mindful choices, and setting realistic goals for the year ahead. If you’re craving inspiration for how to create a life you love while navigating big transitions, this episode is for you!
