Naturally Minded Mamas

I've always been willing to work.....

I've had my first job at 11 years old and then when I started having children almost 7 years ago I stopped working.

I wanted to be home with my children and make a home. Little did I know how much I would miss working, not that taking care of children and a family and a house is NOT work. Us women all know that it's one of the most difficult jobs and work that never ends.

Of course we've been through some financial struggles and I always felt a little guilty that I couldn't help my husband with money. I've tried a few things over the years but nothing really fit into my life or brought the possibility of actually helping with bills, groceries, or debt....

But since starting using the natural peptides and working with Make, I'm very satisfied that I can work from my phone, anywhere, even on the way to the beach!! 🏖️

And I see a future helping many people feel better like me and that's huge!

If you think that's something you be interested in taking a look at, I'm always here to share!

💊 Antibiotics can be lifesaving—but more isn’t always better.

For little ones, repeated or unnecessary antibiotic use can:

• Disrupt the gut microbiome 🦠
• Contribute to antibiotic resistance
• Increase the risk of diarrhea and other side effects
• Affect the balance of beneficial bacteria that support digestion and immune function

Antibiotics have an important place when they’re truly needed. ❤️ The goal isn’t to fear them—it’s to use them wisely and when there’s a clear reason for them.

And remember: many childhood illnesses are viral, and antibiotics don’t work against viruses.

An unhealthy or disrupted gut microbiome can affect several systems because gut microbes interact with the immune system, metabolism, and the gut barrier.

Research has associated gut dysbiosis with increased susceptibility or risk of:

🦠More infections-disruption can reduce beneficial microbes that help resist harmful organisms.

🤧 Allergies & Asthma— particularly when microbiome development is disrupted early in life.

🔥Inflammation— changes in gut bacteria can influence immune signaling.
Digestive problems— such as diarrhea, constipation, bloating, and abdominal discomfort.

🤒Immune dysregulation — much of the body’s immune activity is closely connected with the gut.

🧠Mood and brain related effects— the gut-brain connection is an active area of research, with associations involving anxiety, depression, and stress regulation.

🫩Metabolic problems— including associations with obesity and insulin resistance.

✨ Supporting a child’s overall health and having a conversation with your pediatrician about whether an antibiotic is actually necessary can go a long way.

These flowers are so pretty, does anyone know what the white ones are?

I didn’t start using MAKE Wellness peptides because I needed one more thing to do. 😂

God knows I’m already busy enough homeschooling two kids, chasing a toddler, and trying to keep up with a home. I definitely wasn’t looking for another job!

But something about this opportunity caught my attention.

✨ The work is actually satisfying.
I get to make money while helping other people. There’s something really rewarding about sharing something I believe in and watching someone else experience positive changes too.

✨ It’s exciting!
The incentives, rewards, bonuses, challenges, and just the FUN of building something keeps me motivated. It doesn’t feel like a job I have to drag myself to do.

✨ And one of my favorite parts?
As a nursing mom, I love that I can use these peptides too. That was important to me. I wanted something that could fit into my real life—not something I had to put on hold because I’m still in the baby/toddler stage.

I didn’t need another thing on my plate.

I wanted something that could fit into the life I already have… help me take better care of myself, help others along the way, AND create an income.

And honestly? I’m really glad I said yes. ❤️

Maybe you’ve been watching from the sidelines wondering what all the excitement is about…

I’m happy to tell you what made me jump in. 👀

40… and I actually feel confident. 💛

And honestly? That’s not something I would’ve always said.

There have been plenty of seasons where I didn’t feel comfortable in my body. I didn’t love how I looked, how I felt, or how little energy I had.

Now I don't need three cups of coffee to have energy, I may drink one cup of coffee a week, just because I still like the taste.

I've also realized that I’m so much more than a number on a scale.

Over this 4 months I’ve noticed changes that have nothing to do with a number:

✨ My inflammation is decreased.
✨ I have more energy.
✨ I’m more focused.
✨ I stand taller.
✨ I’m moving my body more.
✨ I'm needing smaller clothes.
✨ I'm sleeping better
✨ my nervous system is feeling regulated
✨ I have more patience.
✨ I’ve created routines that actually support ME and my health.

And here’s the thing…

This isn’t just about going to the gym.

Because let’s be real — as a mom with little ones, there are days when getting to the gym just isn’t happening. 😂

It’s about the little things we can do every day to take care of ourselves — especially feeding our muscles the way they need to be fed.

That’s been one of the biggest game changers for me.

FIT is my one non-negotiable.

Every. Single. Day.

No matter how busy the day is. No matter what the kids need. No matter if I don't feel like exercising.

Because I’ve learned that taking care of myself isn’t selfish.

It’s part of taking care of the people I love, too. ❤️

So tell me…

Some things you may not know about me....

-I like to eat boiled crabs when my kids are sleeping... I think you can guess why 😂

-I'm a convert to Catholicism, I've been Catholic for about 15 years and I attend the traditional Latin Mass @ Our Lady Of Mount Carmel Chapel!

- I got my BA in History- I've always been fascinated by Henry the VIII and his wives.... my great grandmother had a puzzle she did of him and his wives hanging on her wall- it was a story she always told me about and I truly believe it sparked my interest in history!

-I do not believe Tyler Robinson killed Charlie Kirk.....

I'm not that fascinating, but if we haven't known each other long, maybe this will help you to see who I am beyond what I post!
