Okay, so there are five pretty weird things I do every single day before 8am I guess you could call them routines, but they're more like routine supplements. I'll explain what I mean, but if you're a weird mom, you may want to do these too. Here's the big question. How are these average, everyday moms getting radical results in their lives? How are they able to transform their health, money, wealth, families, homes, and have fun doing it? The trick? We're not average. I'm Hannah Keeley and I'm going to spill our secrets and answer your questions right now in that mom show. So this is the deal. I love routines. I'm such a sucker for routines. They've helped me completely change my life. Just getting into the routines of getting up at a certain time, making up my bed, planning my meals, laying out my clothes, all of these things, they have been amazing for me. So I thought, what would happen if I just pushed the bar a little bit, if I added a supplement to my routines? And here's what I mean. So I took my average routine that I do, and I do a lot of them during the day. I put like a little bonus to it. Kind of like you have the food that you eat all day long. But some of you, like me, we take supplements, right? Like, maybe we take a vitamin C every day. Maybe we take a probiotic, something like that. It's our supplement. So I have my routines that I do every single day, but for five of those routines, I put a little supplement to it, I add a little bonus, and it's really for me, I've gotten amazing results out of this. So I wanted to share this with you. Okay? Are you ready for this? So this is very practical and it's kind of weird too. Like, if you're not weird, tune out, because it probably won't apply to you. You gotta be a little weird to do this kind of stuff. So you take a shower every day, right? You take a shower in the morning now every morning I take a shower. But normally, you know, you did the typical wash your body, wash your hair, conditioner, shave. If you're like, want to go total gangsta, But I do something extra for the last 30 seconds of my shower, I turn it all the way to cold. Now, I know that's crazy. It's torture. It's insane. But for 30 seconds, I try to count to 15 standing in front of it and then I turn around and I count for another 15 and then I jump out of that shower. Now, why would I do something that crazy, right? Like, I've already had a shower. Why do I have to put a bonus to it? Why do I have to put a supplement to it? Because that 30 seconds is psychological and physical. Let me explain. First I'll explain the physical. The physical aspect of it is that it jump starts my immune system. So it gets your cardiovascular system, like it puts like a lightning bolt through it. And it really does. You can like do your research. But I've done the research for you. It really does help solidify, increase your immune system, which is awesome. But it gives me that mental edge because here's what I think. Sometimes there are mornings when I like, and I'm like, no, this is like impossible. It's impossible to do. I don't want to do this, but I always do one impossible thing if I think it's impossible. And if I say I can't do it, that means I must do it. I'm very, very careful about saying like, I can't do something. Because if I ever say that, then that means, oh, I gotta do it. Because truly, we are unlimited. God designed us to be unlimited. We are supposed to take authority over this world. We're supposed to. We, we have dominion over this world. There's nothing that's impossible for us. That's what it says in God's word. And I trust God's word. So we have to think, if I could just do one impossible thing in the morning, then what else can I do during the day? If I can just spend 30 seconds in ice cold water, bam. I did my impossible thing. So therefore I can move forward and everything else that maybe subconsciously I thought was impossible, I'm going to tackle it head on. So that's why I put that bonus in my morning shower routine. That bonus is my cold water rush. Now that's number one. I have five of these ready for this. Number two is I go walking every day. But I put a bonus to it, okay? I go walking every single day, which a lot of us do that, right? You either go running in the morning, we stretch in the morning. We do something to give us exercise, right? To make us energetic, to strengthen our muscles, to keep us fit and trim. So I go walking every single morning. But here's my bonus. Ready for this weird bonus routine that I add to my walking. So I actually did two things. One was I would do squats during my walk. It's like a little bonus, you know, you got to have that good, you got to be looking good, coming and going, you know what I mean? Thank you, Lord. You got to be looking good, coming and going. So in order to get that bootylicious booty and get strong thighs, I would do squats at every mailbox. Okay, that's another bonus. And, well, this is actually like a twofer. So number two is two parts because I do this while I'm walking. But here's the big thing I do that is really weird. And only like the weirdest of the weird will do this because it makes you look like you're crazy. I talk to myself. Yes, I talk to myself. But guess what? Everyone talks to themselves because we're always giving ourselves this personal dialogue of what we can and cannot do during the day. So it's either. It's either silent dial dialogue, which means it's going on in our head, or it's out loud dialogue. Hey, mama. We'll get right back to the podcast, but did you know there is an entire online university just for moms?

Make sure you check it out and take your free quiz Again, that's mommastery.comm m o m A S T E R Y. Now back to the podcast. We walk upstairs, we say, man, you're out of breath, you're out of shape. We try to do something and figure out some skills to grow our business. We're like, can't figure this out. You're stupid. Like, we're telling us this negative stuff all the time. When I first realized this, I was like, oh, no, that is going to change right now. Hey, mama, we'll get right back to the podcast. But did you know there is an entire online university just for moms? And if you're ready to get radical results in your life, just go to mommastery.com, that's M O M M A S T E R-Y dot com. Make sure you check it out and take your free quiz Again, that's mommastery.com M O M M A S T-E-R-Y.com now back to the podcast. So what I started doing is when I go walking in the morning, I've recorded all of my proclamations. My phone, it lasts about eight minutes or so because I have a lot of things I speak over myself. So I'm talking about my marriage. I'm like, my husband and I desire each other every single day. We have fun together. We laugh constantly. I'M talking about my money, that I am a source of wealth and wisdom. I talk about my home. My home is a place of peace and it's organized. I'm talking about my kids, that my kids follow God and, and they, they prosper in their anointing, that they are surrounded with favor like a shield. I'm talking about my dreams, my aspirations. So I've developed all of these proclamations that I recorded on my phone. And when I'm walking, I'm actually playing that and I hear it and I say it. If you've been through mom boot camp, you know what I'm talking about. It's called the hear it, speak it formula. There's a specific way to do it, but I will hear it and then I'll speak it out loud so that both hemispheres of my brain are firing fired up. And I get this belief down deep in my subconscious that I do have an awesome marriage, I do have wealth, that I do have protection, that I do have favor. So I'm speaking all this stuff and I'm. And it's getting down deep into my belief system now. That's the second thing. So number one is the cold water rush. Number two is talking to myself. Number three, some of you guys can think this is gross, alright? So. But it's weird. I told you these are weird. So everyone, well, most everyone has a cup of coffee in the morning or a cup of tea or whatever. You have your cup of something, right? I have my cup of coffee in the morning, but I add collagen and MCT oil to it every single morning. Collagen and mct. And it just becomes like what I always drink when I travel. I carry collagen and MCT oil with me. I add it to my coffee. So I'm getting my cup of coffee in the morning, right? But then I add this bonus to it and I put collagen so that I've got that good protein, you know, and we know what collagen does for our skin. And then I've got my MCT oil, all right? So that energy can continue and last throughout the day. So that's another thing I do, that's that number three, that bonus routine for my cup of coffee. I add collagen and I add MCT oil to it all day, every day. That's number three. Now number four, some of you may already be doing this if you're weird enough. So everyone kind of has their morning routine where they're getting their body ready for the day. I was riding in an Uber a couple days ago. And the guy who was driving it, he needed to take better care of his body. That's all I'll say. But he said, yeah, the first hour of the day, I'm just kind of snorting and wheezing and hacking and getting it all up. No lie. His words. I'm like, oh, okay, okay. So we all have our own weird routines, like getting our body ready for the day. It could be like stretching. It could be snorting, wheezing, and hacking like my Uber driver, or it could be anything like that. But one thing I do to get limbered up and get my energy going and to wake up my kids who are still sleeping in the house is I blast one hype song. So that's my bonus routine. Like, instead of just stretching, like everyone does that, right? Brand new day, I blast one hype song. And you know what I mean? Like, everyone's got their hype song, right? That song that, like, no matter where you are, you have to start dancing. You hear that? And you're like, I'm sorry, guys, I'm just going to embarrass everyone. I'm just going to start dancing right here in the waiting room at the chiropractor. No matter where you are. So that number four is dance to a hype song. That's how you get your body energized. That's how you get your mind alert, is you put on a hype song and you just bust a move. Oh, yeah, bust a move. Okay, I'm not going to get into that. So we got number one, the cold water rush. Number two, talking to yourself. Number three, collagen and mct oil in my coffee. Number four, dance to a hype song. Number five. And this is my personal growth, my personal development, my spiritual development. I read the bible in the morning, right? I spend time in prayer, but I always try to listen to a faith filled message or sermon. But here's what I do. I put on my makeup during the day. That's my average routine, right? Doing my hair and doing my makeup. Because this don't just happen, you know what I mean? So I put on my makeup, but then while I'm putting on my makeup, I do a bonus routine. And what I do is I put on a podcast, a sermon or a faith filled message. So I'm getting my face ready and I'm getting my spirit ready all at the same time. I know y'. All, it's like for me, I love to multipurpose and I love to cram as much as I can in the time that I have. So if you can give me a routine and I can put a bonus to it, I am doing that all the time. So Those are my five weird things that I do before 8am you may want to do all of them, you may want to try some of them, but I would definitely just give one a try and see how that benefits you because you already have your routines. If you've been sticking with me for a while, you have your routines. Now let's pump it up a couple degrees, okay? Add a bonus to it and see what happens.
