Is FOMO running your life this summer?


Hey Reader,

Let’s talk about something sneaky that might be keeping you stuck…
FOMO—the fear of missing out.

It sounds harmless, right?
But when you’re constantly saying yes to every invite, every outing, every “just one more thing”…
You end up saying no to yourself.

No time for a workout.
No space to prep a real meal.
No moments of peace or quiet to reset your brain.

And I get it—summer is full of good stuff.
You want to be there. You don’t want to miss the memories.
But when every day is go-go-go, and you’re putting yourself dead last?

You start to feel it:
• Low energy
• More aches and stiffness
• Clothes fitting differently
• Mood swings, brain fog, and frustration

That’s the cost of letting FOMO call the shots.

Here’s the truth:
You don’t have to miss out on summer to take care of yourself.
But if you’re not intentional, it’s way too easy to get swept up and burned out.

Try this:
✅ Block off 20–30 minutes three times a week for movement (walk, strength, a quick circuit—whatever fits)
✅ Keep easy staples on hand for balanced meals (think protein + produce + something satisfying)
✅ Protect 10 minutes a day that are just for you—no phone, no noise, no multitasking

These small things don’t take away from your summer—they protect it.

They help you show up better. Feel better. Actually enjoy what you’re saying yes to.

You’re not selfish for needing time.
You’re not lazy for wanting rest.
And you’re not boring if you say no to one event so you can reset and move your body.

FOMO won’t go away. But it doesn’t have to run the show.

If you need help figuring out how to make space for you in the middle of everything else, I’m just a reply away 💛
