What if the secret to loving motherhood isn't enjoying every minute, but recognizing the small, golden moments that make motherhood feel magical? Rachel Nielson, host of 3 in 30 Takeaways for Moms Podcast, founder of Flecks of Gold Journal, and special sponsor of this Conference, wants moms to start looking for the tiny flecks of gold tucked into their days with their kids instead of waiting for the huge nuggets of joy.   This is a practice that saved Rachel's young motherhood when her expectations of cotton candy and angel babies met the cold hard reality of colicky newborns and fiery toddlers. Learning to locate the small, golden moments shifted the story Rachel was telling herself about her children and her parenting, and it's continued to support Rachel (and so many other moms) as her kids have grown, alongside their struggles. With practical tips and simple mindset shifts, Rachel encourages every mom to stop trying to "enjoy every minute," and to instead focus on a single moment that documents daily why you love motherhood as much as you love your kids.

FREEBIE for all: Find Your Magic in Motherhood Mini Course A 5-Day mini-course to help you find your magic in motherhood.

BONUS raffled off to one participant: One Free Flecks of Gold Journal!

Rachel Nielson is a motherhood educator, podcaster, and mom of two. As a former high school English teacher, she has a gift for making complex ideas clear and actionable—a skill that shows up in everything she creates. Rachel's own path into motherhood came through adoption and IVF, and she expected to love every minute of it. Instead, she found herself lost in postpartum depression, wondering why loving her kids and loving her motherhood felt like two entirely different things. So she started the 3 in 30 Takeaways for Moms podcast, where she's since interviewed more than 350 parenting and self-development experts, searching for the core principles behind a motherhood that actually feels good to live. What she learned along the way became the Self-Assured Motherhood Framework, the foundation for her live program, and the Flecks of Gold Journal for Moms. Everything Rachel creates is designed to help women find joy in their own unique motherhood, not the one they think they're supposed to have.

You're doing the same workouts, eating the same way, but suddenly nothing is working. Your body composition is shifting, you're more tired, and you're wondering if your body is just . . . broken. It's not. It's changing. In this session, fitness and nutrition coach Amber Brueseke breaks down exactly what's happening hormonally during perimenopause and why the exercise approach that worked in your 30s is working differently now. She shares the one shift that changes everything (hint: it's not more cardio), a bare-minimum workout plan that takes just 1 hour and 40 minutes a week, and the truth about cortisol, HIIT, and weight gain that social media keeps getting wrong. If you're approaching midlife--or are already there--this conversation will replace fear with a plan.

FREEBIE for all: Why Your Workouts Aren't Working A free 60 minute workshop where we'll diagnose what's not working with your workouts and how to fix it so that the time you spend sweating translates into more muscle and less fat.

BONUS raffled off to All-Access Pass Holders: Build Your Workouts Program Most workout programs give you a plan and hope you figure it out. Build Your Workouts is different. Instead of handing you someone else's generic program to follow, it teaches you how to build your own completely customized to your body, your goals, and your life.

Dr. Holliday-Bell wants you to help you make shifts to your nightly routine, starting with if you do something that actually makes you look forward to it all day?
