February Love Yourself Challenge- 28 Ways to Love Yourself More
In order to love, we must first love ourselves. It’s true. It’s so hard to pour from an empty cup. But how do we fill up our own cup? How do we love ourselves when there are so many other things getting in the way of truly being able to make ourselves a priority? Well, that’s the thing. We must MAKE ourselves a priority. It takes time. It takes a conscious effort. It takes action. And it takes the ability to say, I am truly worth it. If you’re struggling to come up with ways to do that, to celebrate yourself, to embrace your worth and to fill your own…

‘Tis the season… To make attempts to stay on track… but in reality… wine, turkey, appetizers, boozy festive drinks, parties, and too many cookies ALWAYS interfere with those plans.As much as I’d always used to tell myself that it’s going to be different this year, old habits die hard and I’d end up feeling pretty sluggish come January 1st.Wouldn’t it be nice to just get through the holidays without the added bloat, weight gain, and diving into the Christmas cookies at every opportunity? And maybe snag some cool holiday swag in the process?My official Holiday Survival Group + 12 Days of Giveaways kicks off with a week of PREP on Monday…

Turn Your Fitness Your Business: Building A Successful Coaching Business From Home
After my 3rd pregnancy I needed a change. My body wasn’t bouncing as fast as I expected it would, despite having a pretty fit and active pregnancy. I was HAULING 3 kids to & from the gym, one was a tiny baby, and I was putting in an hour of work each time, and being pulled from my workouts to nurse a baby or change a diaper, and just couldn’t get into the groove. On top of that I was going back to nursing school full-time… my life was CHAOS. I was depressed, stressed, unhealthy, eating like garbage, and just didn’t feel good about the frustrated, chaotic, anxious person that…

Love the Skin You’re In: 30 Days to the Best Version of You
What does it take to live and love from a place of worthiness? How do we embrace imperfection? How do we cultivate what we need and let go of what’s holding us back? Owning our story can be difficult, but not as difficult as running from it. And often we fear we’re not worthy enough. I’ll be worthy if I lose 20 lbs. I’ll be worthy if I get that job. I’ll be worthy if I find the one. I’ll be worthy if I make x amount of money. I’ll be worthy if I look a certain way. I’ll be worthy if I have certain things. But how many of…

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…

Call Me a Quitter… Why I Quit my Bikini Competition.
Today is one week out. What does that even mean? It was about 3 years ago that I really got into working out, going to the gym, and making a choice to take better care of my body. I wasn’t getting any younger and it was starting to show. I started sharing my journey on Instagram and I was a total newbie to everything. Hashtags… Geesh. What’s up with all these hashtags? I remember following a girl who was a fitness competitor and seeing these #6weeksout #4weeksout hashtags… come to find out it meant weeks away from their show date- the date they’re competing. I was intrigued. Cardio vs.…

Here’s To The Women…
Here’s to the women who rise and grind. May your rise continue to be early and your grind be strong. Here’s to the women who wear calluses on their hands.
