    Jan 22 2025

    Hello Fabulous!!

    Ever find yourself counting sheep at 3 AM, wide awake, wondering why your brain seems determined to replay every embarrassing moment of your life? If you’re like me and struggle with getting a good night’s sleep, then today’s episode is going to be a game changer for you. In Episode 192 of the FOF Podcast, I chat with the incredible holistic sleep coach, Morgan Adams, who has all the tips and tricks to help you catch those elusive Zzz’s.

    Morgan is a 54-year-old sleep expert based in Virginia, who has transformed her life from being a pharmaceutical sales rep to finding her true calling as a holistic sleep coach. Inspired by her battle with insomnia and a pivotal breast cancer diagnosis, she’s on a mission to help people live happier, healthier, and more fulfilled lives through better sleep.

    Ever heard of CBTI (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia)? Morgan dives deep into this game-changing, non-pharmacological approach that has about a 70% success rate. It's all about changing your behaviors, attitudes, and beliefs around sleep, without the need for sleep meds that often come with side effects.

    Morgan also shares some life-saving tips to fix those pesky middle-of-the-night wake-ups. From figuring out if a blood sugar crash or overheating might be the culprit, to the importance of having a consistent sleep schedule—even if you're a night owl like me—she covers it all. By the way, who knew that morning light and exercise could be such powerful sleep aids?

    Whether you’ve been battling sleep issues for years or just had a recent rough patch, this episode has golden nuggets of wisdom for everyone. Tune in to learn how you can finally tell your sleepless nights to take a hike and wake up feeling refreshed and ready to conquer the day.

    What You'll Learn:

    • Morgan’s journey from insomnia to holistic sleep coaching
    • The powerful impact of CBTI for Insomnia
    • Why getting morning light and exercising can transform your sleep
    • Tips for handling those frustrating middle-of-the-night wake-ups
    • Understanding and loving your unique chronotype (Yes, it’s okay to be a night owl!)

    Don’t miss this sleep-transforming episode! Make sure to check out Morgan’s website at morganadamswellness.com for more tips and resources.

    Listen now and start your journey to better sleep!

    PS: If you’ve ever argued about your sleep schedule being “just you wanting to sleep in late,” you’re gonna want to hear this. You might just win that argument next time! 😉

    Ready to transform your nights? Hit play and let’s dive in!

    Nov 20 2024

    Today, we're exploring what life is, and what it means to truly live. From life’s delightful moments like holding hands for the first time and enjoying a silky bath after a long day, to the more mundane yet oddly satisfying tasks like folding laundry and washing dishes, we cover it all. Here, we believe life is a tapestry woven from simple joys, human connection, passionate work, and yes, even those loads of laundry.

    You’ll find me sharing my thoughts on why life is like a walk along the beach and how waking up to an incredible day starts with that first deep breath. We also dish out heartfelt, humorous musings on love, solitude, friendships, and even those little interruptions that remind us we're gloriously human. Whether you’re looking for inspiration, a moment of reflection, or a reason to smile, this channel has something for you.

    So, grab a cup of tea, get cozy in your most comfortable clothes (you know, the ones that feel amazing), and dive into our videos. And hey, if you’ve got a friend who could use a little reminder of life’s simple joys, share the love.

  • Who IS Jen Hardy; From Hospital Beds to Beachside Bliss
    Oct 18 2024

    Hello Fabulous!

    Jen Hardy here. Wow, what a journey it's been! Let me take you back a bit to 2018—a time my doctors believed would be my final year on this beautiful planet. They told me I'd need a ventilator to breathe, basically predicting I'd be walking around with what felt like a giant backpack. Well, guess what? Here I am, breathing and walking on my own, almost hitting 2025! If that's not a miracle, I don't know what is.

    I figured it was high time I introduced myself properly to my new audience, fans, and friends. If you've been following me, you might know me from my podcast days as "Hardy Mom," where I was reaching out to fellow moms battling chronic health issues.
