Hey hey, beautiful caregiver souls!

Did you know your muscles are glucose sponges and movement is one of the most joyful ways to support your brain? In this high-energy finale to our 3-part series with Rachel Daugherty, we dive into the power of movement, protein, sugar awareness, and self-love as tools for long-term brain health.

If you're a caregiver, a cycle-breaker, or a vibrant being craving sustainable, soul-aligned wellness that supports your whole self—this episode is your reminder that tiny changes can spark massive transformation.

 IN THIS EPISODE, WE DANCE THROUGH:

 💪  Why your muscles are your brain’s BFF—and how even 10 squats can help regulate blood sugar.
 🌈  The joyful magic of “fitness all the time” (yep, vacuuming in your underwear counts!).
 ☕  Why you might want to delay coffee until after breakfast—and how that supports cortisol balance.
 🥚  Why Rachel eats 30–40g of protein every morning—and how that fuels her body
and brain.
🍒 How to gently reduce sugar without shame (ever tied frozen cherries?).
💖 Per Rachel D, "The wake-up can come from fear, but
the action comes from love!"

PLUS: 

🧠  Easy movement tips, kitchen hacks, songs that shift the vibe (hello, Glenn Miller & Glass Animals!), and how to celebrate your wins without perfectionism.

🎧 Whether you're squatting after dinner, stirring eggs before coffee, or dancing it out in your bathroom—this episode will light up your day and empower your brain for the long run.
