21 Day Fix + 3 Day Refresh Results
Ahhhhhh! That’s a WRAP! 3 weeks of workouts in the bag, nutrition on point, and ready to finish packing these bags, board that airplane, and land on the beaches of Punta Cana tomorrow afternoon. Vacation mode: ON!!! Before this trip set out, I fell into the post- New Year’s goals already met so back to eating not as healthy and drinking a few too many glasses of wine here and there… I wanted to get to WORK on knocking out a round of one of my old favorites and program that started this journey for me over 2.5 years ago. I decided I’d take it back to the…

Creamy Chicken Enchiladas (Healthier version)
Some nights you just need a comfort food, soul feeding, delicious pan of creamy enchiladas. It’s been years since I made a pan of enchiladas and to say we were due was an understatement. As we embark on a 3 week- super healthy fitness & nutrition regimen in prep for our Punta Cana vacation on April 23rd, this was a healthier “last hoorah” as a pre-gift to ourselves for committing to hard work for 3 weeks. Keep in mind, when you lead a healthy lifestyle- you should indulge. You should have treat meals. And you shouldn’t restrict yourself- that’s no fun. Neither is dieting. Eat to live. Not the…

DestiNATION Fit Live Look Into Coaching: March 29th
If you would’ve told me three years ago I’d be earning my income from home as a coach, helping people achieve their fitness goals, improving my own health as well as my family’s and leading a healthier lifestyle, I wouldn’t have believed you. This wasn’t the “chosen” path. Or a path that I personally would’ve chosen for myself. I heard about coaching, about becoming a coach, about inspiring others, about the opportunity to build a business from my kitchen table after my kids had gone to bed or early in the morning, and to be honest, I didn’t think it was something I could do. I had self-doubt. I had…

Best Year Yet 6 Week Bootcamp – Starts March 13th
Well. 2017 started out strong. Nutrition was on point. Workout routine was stellar. Then life happened. Real world crept back in and even though I started strong, I’ve been pretty weak as of lately. Easily tempted. Too much 20 and not enough 80… it’s been more like 60/40… and this weekend, 50/50 at best! I just looked at my calendar- our Punta Cana trip is less than 2 months away. So knowing I’m going to be WHOOPING myself into gear – a 6 week bootcamp in prep for the beach is in order- and I want to bring YOU with me. My 6 WEEK BOOTCAMP is going to start…

Busy Women Building a Business: Now Hiring Coaches
I was never a person who set out to create some big grandiose plan. I’m simple. I love my family. I love taking care of others (hence my previous life as a bartender, then as a nurse). I was content. I just wanted to get in better shape. And find a balance between the wine and the leftover kids PBJ, handful of goldfish crackers, and my love for tacos. When I started to share a little bit about the struggles of a busy life, workouts, being a momma to 3 littles, and still taking time for myself, I found that I wanted to do something bigger. I started to want…

Beef Stew with Sweet Potatoes- Whole 30 Friendly
I’m just a girl, standing in front of a stove, asking for dinner to make itself. Fortunately this wasn’t quite as difficult and time consuming as I imagined in my mind it would be.

Ingredients: 1 lb lean stew meat (can sub chicken) 2 tsp EVOO 2 medium sweet potatoes, diced & peeled 2 large red potatoes, diced & peeled 1 c chopped carrots 1 large green pepper, diced 2 tbsp minced yellow onion 1 can diced tomatoes 2 tsp oregano 1 tsp garlic salt 1 c beef stock (Whole 30 approved) Himalayan sea…

Embarking on the Whole 30 Journey… With Breakfast Hash
Hello 2017! Hello “New Year, New Me”. I vowed I wasn’t going to overhaul my life this year. I wasn’t going to make a “big change”. I like the ME that I am. I don’t need a new “me”. So, I decided that I was going to pick a few things to improve where I needed to and focus on having more fun. Living a little bit more. Take more trips. Love harder. Laugh more. Give my kids so many snuggles that by 2018 they were sick of me! And be a really good wife. You know, one that doesn’t complain about the trash not being taken out, because…

Destin Leadership Retreat 2016 Recap
Words can’t begin to describe the awesomeness that was my recent 4 day trip to Destin for our Beachbody Leadership Retreat. As a busy momma to 3 young girls, a recent nursing school graduate, and a wife to a busy, traveling husband, it was clear that I needed a vacation away and this was more than what I needed, just for my body, mind, and soul. There’s something about being around a group of people with similar goals, positive attitudes, and a desire to commit to inspiring others to meet their needs. I recently celebrated my 2 year anniversary of becoming a Beachbody coach and honestly when I started I…

Roasted Buffalo Cauliflower Salad
Veggies that taste like you’re not eating veggies… No brainer! A little buffalo wing sauce and roasting these in the oven made this cauliflower crisp up and gave it a crunch that made it taste like buffalo chicken bites! I’m in love! And as an added bonus, last night’s roasted buffalo cauliflower made for a super yummy lunch today! Topped with a little low-cal Greek yogurt ranch and this was absolute heaven! Enjoy! For the Cauliflower: 1 lb package frozen cauliflower 1/4 c hot wing sauce – I use Frank’s Red Hot Coat frozen cauliflower in sauce evenly. Spread on baking sheet covered in foil and sprayed with…

Strengthening Your Core- The Importance of Ab Workouts
With summer approaching, the question I am most frequently asked is “How do I get my abs back?” Well, I could tell you to do 1,000 crunches and drink a bunch of water and eat healthy but it’s a little more complicated than that! And 1,000 crunches aren’t going to get it done anyway. In order to have “abs” you need to strengthen your core. There’s a difference between core and abs. They work together but in order to have one, you need the other. You need to sweat. And by doing so, engaging more than just your ab muscles. Core strengthening involves tightening up the muscles in your…
