🚶‍♀️ Your Action Item: Create Your Chaos Plan

• Part 1: Backup Meal Plan – Identify 2–3 quick food options you can rely on when dinner plans go off the rails (restaurants, freezer meals, or grab-and-go options).
  
• Part 2: Movement Plan B – What will you do when your usual workout isn’t possible? Think 10 squats, a 5-minute walk, or resistance bands in your bag.

Having these on deck turns chaos into consistency—and you into someone who takes care of herself, no matter what.
