Welcome to flu season—or as Kelsey calls it, the time of year when sugar, stress, and lack of sunlight gang up on our immune systems. In this episode of Intentional Motherhood, Kelsey dives into why everyone seems to get sick between October and March (hint: it’s not because the viruses suddenly get stronger).

You’ll hear her break down how our modern lifestyle—less sunlight, more sugar, crazy schedules, and indoor living—creates the perfect storm for feeling rundown. But instead of fear and frustration, Kelsey invites moms to see this season as an opportunity: a time for rest, nourishment, and simple family rhythms that support both body and soul.

From boosting vitamin D naturally to creating cozy winter traditions that don’t revolve around sugar, this episode will help you shift your mindset from “surviving flu season” to “thriving in a season of rest and renewal.”

✨ In this episode:

• Why “flu season” is really lifestyle season
• How sugar and stress suppress immune function
• Simple ways to support your family’s immunity naturally
• The power of sunlight, rest, and rhythm
• A faith-based perspective on winter as a God-designed season of slowing down
