4 AM MORNING ROUTINE OF A FULL TIME WORKING MOM | FALL 2021 | MIRACLE MORNING

Today I'm sharing my 4 AM morning routine as a full time working mom of 2. Life can be very chaotic and stressful, and I found that spending some time by yourself at the beginning of the day is something that helps me feel more in control of the day ahead.
This is why I have been practicing Miracle Morning for the past 3 years now. It helps me be more intentional and feel in charge of my day.
After my miracle morning routine it's time for the morning chores, which means getting the kids ready for school and getting my work day started.

4am wake up? You are superwoman! You get so much done!! Very inspiring 🥰

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

Yes, it's very early but I do start my work day at 5:30am. Thank you for watching 😊

[@EbonyRivers1]

This was so inspiring. I’ve been struggling to find my groove as a new and working from home mom with a one-year-old who stays home with me throughout the day. I want to try a 5am routine and will ask my hubby to help with the baby for those early hours if needed.

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

Ebony - working form home with a one-year-old is hard! Give yourself plenty of grace! I started my morning routine when my daughter was around 18 months. And it took a few months before everyone got used to it. There were morning when she would wake up in the middle of it and after a few months she learned that this will be her time to play as mommy is finishing up her morning workout, reading, or journaling. You go it!

[@Iheart2cook]

I aspire to be like this in the morning. i will continue to work in this direction. If I could just get to bed a little earlier, this could be accomplished. God bless

[@jaydenyorboy10]

Inspirational! Thank you for this inspirimg video to remind mothers what they can accomplish in a day

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

Thank you very much!

[@RRGMOTORS]

I really like your habit of getting up early in the morning

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

As much as I would like to stay in my bed some mornings, it has been so life changing for me, that I choose to get up every time. That peace and quiet is so awesome first thing in the morning 🙂

[@ginabradbury]

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

Thank you so much! That time is so needed 😘

[@shivanigarg4158]

After watching this video lots of time..i tried today to get up early...i am feeling tired.. i have 9 month old baby.. but i know i used to it with time...

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

That's awesome! Hope you enjoyed your morning! It is hard with 9 month old. So if the baby is keeping you up a night, and it is hard to get up early, maybe start very slowly. Like waking up 15 minutes earlier than usual.

[@OlgaPogozheva]

Oh wow, just started watching and intro is AWESOME!

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

Thank you Olga! I feel like editing took forever on this one 🙂😅

[@weeklydoseofsports7302]

Hello and Nice meeting you!!!! As you, I work for a company which makes me a “working mom” and a “house manager mom” home/Kids/lots of soccer games!! It was great to finally meet someone that aligns with my day to day routine and found your post inspiring. I used to follow the miracle morning for years and BB workouts but not as I used to dedicate myself to. Can I ask you a question? What time do you go to bed? Thanks again!!! Tchau 👋

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

So great to meet another working mom here! I love the name house manager mom!!!😍 I usually go to sleep at 9pm. Sometimes a little later if the book I'm reading gets so interesting that I can't stop reading 😅

[@OlgaPogozheva]

Ahh I so love this episode! Your hair is so long and beautiful! And I’m struggling with mine currently, it’s so weak and thin 😔 And yes, absolutely, I make myself presentable in the morning (makeup etc), because then the craziness of the day hits in, and I risk going around scary and untidy. Oh my, this episode is so so good! Enjoying every minute of it, Marta!.. (I’m working on a 4 am morning routine myself now… managed to only make it from 5 am currently!)

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

Thank you so much for the feedback and your support Olga😘 Yes, my hair has gotten a bit long - and it has gotten a bit thicker after the pregnancy with my daughter (which I found very weird). 5 am is early as well. I start my word day at 5:30am so in order to get my morning routine in, I have to start at 4am 😅

[@Blessedgal_3897]

Hey my friend!! 😌❤ After I settled down this evening I realized I had missed your vlog. I drink both herbal tea and coffee. Great to see you. 💖💖💖😘

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

Hello! Great to hear from you! Do you have any herbal tea favorites? I'm trying to expand my horizons with teas because all I drink right now is black or English breakfast ones.

[@Blessedgal_3897]

@@ImperfectLifeBalance I drink green tea with lemon and I love this brand called Bigelow. Twinings is another good brand with different flavors. I like their Pomegranate Raspberry. I believe Wal-Mart carries both brands. My favorite is Orange & Cinnamon Spice. It's so good. 😇

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

@@Blessedgal_3897 thank you! I will check them out!

I’m an owner operator. So I work in the business I own as the GM, but I also have days I work from home and do the backend/paper side of business.

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

Awesome! In my previous position I used to have a mix of work from home and work from the office days and I really enjoyed it.

Nice Sharing keep it up 27 L new friend here

[@katiefisher2548]

I want to start trying this miracle morning routine. I need to make the time for me. What time do you go to bed at night to be able to wake up so early. I think that's where I struggle is getting to bed at a good time so I can get up and get started in the morning!

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

Yes! That is definitely the first step. I go to sleep pretty early so getting up early is not much of a struggle. Hope you get to start doing your miracle morning routine soon😊

[@EATLIFTRUN]

Hi! I'm Jenn. Just bumped into your channel and really enjoyed this video. I immediately subbed. Quick question where did you get that red sweater? Looks so cute and definitely something of my style. Enjoying your channel.

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

Welcome!! So glad to have you here. I got it at TX Maxx last year but I saw it there just last week so definitely check it out if you have one near you!

[@miriam9775]

Thank you. Music was much louder than the voice. 🙂

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

Thanks Miriam! I have made some improvements with leveling out music in the more recent videos 😊

[@thevictoriafabs1]

Great video! Thanks for sharing you time! Can you tell what time you go to sleep the day before ? Cheers

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

I am in bed by 8:30pm and usually asleep by 9pm. Glad you enjoyed this video 😊

[@nickiedoyle1731]

Batiste is the best dry shampoo ever

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

I totally agree!

[@fullertonsprofessionalorga8832]

When I do use dry shampoo it is just baby powder.

[@ImperfectLifeBalance]

I have tried some others before with the same effect. The only one that works for me is Batiste

[@Phushprada1]

I really would like to know more about your coffee machine!!!
