If you’re having a hard time changing your behaviour, try making changes to your environment.
π Put your gym stuff by your shoes so you don’t forget them the next day.
π Leave cutting boards, knives, and cooking utensils accessable so they’re not “out of sight, out of mind”.
π Keep a yoga mat, foam roller, or massage ball beside the couch for quick and easy access.
π Buy pre-cut fruit/veggie trays.
Our willpower and desire for change will not be enough if the obstacles in front of us are abundant, or too big.
Make Life a little easier for yourself.
Is there an obstacle getting in your way all the time? Feel free to DM me or share it in the comments below and we can try to work it out together right here. π

Whoopty-do. You’re so strong. π (readπ)
I kid, of course! These are actually exciting moments for me.
(And hopefully my clients)
They shine a big spotlight on the strengths and abilities that we have as individuals. These are moments for celebration.
Its easy to lose sight of our own superpowers when we’re so focused on comparing our weaknesses to what turns out to be others’ strengths.
Okay, you don’t like your belly fat. But do you realize how strong you are by bringing all of the groceries inside in one trip?
Okay, you’re arms jiggle when you wave them(everyone’s does, btw). But do you realize how much swagger you have to pull off that outfit?
Okay, you’ve been on 10 different diets over the past 2 years and still can’t keep the weight off. But do you realize the enormous amount of grit and character you posses to keep trying and not just give up?
In a world where seemingly perfect bodies, families, careers, and lives in general get the most “likes” and praise, it’s no wonder we’re so focused on trying to compare ourselves to the things that make other people stand out.
What superpowers do YOU have?

It’s important that in my eagerness to teach and share, I remember that I may be discussing a topic of which *I am the less informed*.
I may have learned a lot about pregnancy and postpartum care through a premier certification program…
But I also have to keep in mind that nothing teaches us about ourselves better than our own experiences.

Every once in a while, two seemingly random puzzle pieces fall into place perfectly, and unintentionally.
Speaking of… My good friend, supporter, and colleague Dr.Monica wrote this book. It’s a thoughtful read. It can be as light or as heavy as you need it to be. Check it out on her profile below:

(Also, my bookmarks look so good with it, right!? Lol)

I don’t post my workouts cause there’s truly nothing special about them. They’re probably boring af to watch anyway.
Today’s different.
325lbs felt so nice, I had to do it twice.
I surprised myself considering I hadn’t been training for this weight, nor have I lifted anything close to it in about 5 years.
My intention was to just get my heart rate up and stop at 155lbs.
My reps were feeling really crisp, though, so I just kept adding plates – as you can see. Lol.
100% credit goes to cultivating the habit of making every rep move and feel the same, regardless of weight.
(Who am I kidding, the credit goes to the #crocs – even in casual mode. π€―)
