Meet our newest Fit Moms Fit Kids Team Blogger Mrs. Loren Slocum!
People always ask me “how do you do it all?” You have 3 businesses? You don’t have a nanny? You and your husband travel for work? You have a teen, a tween and a toddler?
Here is my answer….BIG DEEP BREATHS!
For me, I have to say I have learned the most important thing in being a mom is being “Fit” and not just physically fit but also emotionally fit, spiritually fit, and financially fit.
The best thing we can do for our kids is to be a great example for them and not just talk the talk, but rather walk the talk. When our kids see that we are dong what we love, that we are eating what we suggest that they eat, when we are making smart financial decisions, then they have a strong foundation to build upon. The other thing that has been really important for me to instill within my kids is for them to not try to do everything alone, you need a team, you need friends, there is no victory in being a martyr.
I am not perfect but I strive to be the best I can be everyday so that my kids do the same. I am passionate about health and eating healthy, but not because I believe there is One way to eat, but rather, it just makes sense. I am most passionate about being emotionally fit. Without that inner strength, one’s life is built on a house of cards.
I think the other thing I would say is “Honor who you are and don’t try to be someone you are not”.
We each add so much to this beautiful tapestry.
May you always stay true to who you are!
Finally, I’d like to tell you why I wanted to be a part of the Fit Moms Fit Kids blog team, it is because I want all moms to realize WE MUST BE the heroes our children seek in the world. I will be sharing with you over the coming months my heart about fitness from the busy working moms prospective. Come back to hear how I do it, and to find encouragement on how you can also be a Fit Mom with Fit Kids for life!
