All too often we put too much pressure on ourselves to ditch old habits, lose weight and get our act together when it comes to exercising and eating right. We set our expectations sky high, we feel like failures when we can’t comply and end up giving up on those goals time and time again. The same goals that keep reoccurring instead of becoming habit. Continue reading
I’m sure you’ve heard of the 80/20 rule. It’s a balanced approach to eating- without dieting- that is realistic to maintain and won’t sabotage your results or leave you feeling deprived. I think it’s one of the best “diets” out there and works for most of us, 80 % of the time.
And what about the other 20% of the time? Call it summer and here’s what you can do to get back on track. Continue reading
Making changes with our food and lifestyle isn’t always an easy path. Nor is raising a family, starting a new job or facing unexpected challenges that get thrown our way. I know I often need some motivation, and you probably do too! We all have times when we need a little motivation. And who doesn’t love an inspirational quote?
So who is feeling sexy these days? It’s winter, it’s grey outside, and I find myself living in sweat pants and a hoodie to stay warm. Time for a little check in everyone because being healthy is the NEW SEXY! Continue reading
The Ripple Effect vs. All Or Nothing. When you put time and energy into exercise it makes it easier to eat healthy. And when you eat healthy it makes you more likely to exercise. It’s the ripple effect. When you make positive strides in one area of your life, other areas will soon follow. Makes sense doesn’t it?
One lesson I’ve learned this past year is to focus on what strengths come naturally for me, and not get hung up on my weaknesses. This is called “playing your free square”, which Victoria Moran talks about in “Creating a Charmed Life”.

If there’s one thing this pandemic is teaching us it’s about the things that truly matter. Love. Family. Connection. Health.
It’s interesting…
👉Some people are resisting this experience…wanting things to go back to “normal” as quickly as possible.
👉Some are acting as if things are normal even when they’re not.
👉Others are embracing it and making the most of it.
And sometimes, when things are entirely out of your control, the best thing to do is embrace the situation and figure out how to come out better on the other side.
Because even though we can’t control pandemics and quarantines and governments, we can control our response and reaction to everything.
And with that, I wanted to share a few important lessons I’ve taken from this new human experience we’re having…
💎1. Your health is your greatest asset. Because without health, you can’t truly experience life. It’s your responsibility to yourself and to others to make this a top priority.
💎2. You get to dictate your response to the circumstances. Whether you choose to tune into the news all day and live in fear or make the most of the situation is entirely up to you.
💎3. Create space for growth. Growth is one of our high-level human needs. Humans are motivated and exhilarated by growth. Whether it’s reading daily, listening to podcasts, or even starting that business you’ve always had in the back of your mind, growing yourself daily will change you fundamentally. And there’s no better time to trade Netflix for education.
💎4. Give more. This could be money, time, or an ear of support. There’s always someone with less who needs your help.
💎5. Motivation is created by you, not something that just happens to Waiting for motivation means waiting a long time. Motivation comes from taking action that gets you a result.
I truly hope these lessons are insightful for you and that that they inspire or empower you to really make the most of this period in time.
Because really…what other choice do we have anyway?
What’s the biggest lesson you’ve taken so far from all of this?
How does this instance change things for you for the better going ahead?
