22… (plus 11) 3️⃣3️⃣ 🎉🎂🎈
Fun start at Hump Day Hybrid 💪
Pregnancy saved the members today from 33 burpees…iykyk
32 was a whirlwind year! Let’s recap…
Little did I know a car accident days before my 32nd bday and Valencia Mara, would lead to trauma in the coming months but trigger NEEDED growth 💕
Alongside pushing myself towards running goals, scary bouts of debilitating insomnia became an overwhelming experience, leading to serious panic attacks. An alarm bell went off!
It was time to take action 🙌🏼
A life coach as part of my job guided we through so much self development that has not only improved my career and its development, but my relationship with myself. After years of limited self compassion, 32 was where I started to practice it 🩵
Having not done therapy for 15 years, it was time to get back to it. I found an amazing therapist who I’m still working with now, who guided me through insomnia, panic and anxiety.
Running ‘performance’ took a step back once I realised my body wasn’t in the place for it but still completed 1 x Mara and 3 x HMs, one of which was 16 weeks pregnant! Running became FUN 🏃♀️
Some blood tests earlier in the year highlighted it was time to tackle my menstrual cycle. This meant working on nutrition and as a result making a very good friend
We had the serious chat about trying to become parents, and despite anticipated odds (informed by a Dr), we got pregnant straight away and very fortunate for this 🤰
Pregnancy is a rollercoaster of physical feelings, emotions, secrecy initially, change in your body and mind, and the unknown but I feel empowered. Sharing my journey so far has opened new opportunity. I’m so excited to meet baby boy 👶🏼
We finally celebrated our honeymoon in Oz seeing some best friends out there too!
I thought I felt underwhelmed by turning 33, but actually on reflection, the growth I have had the past year has been game changing, and everything I have learnt about myself, I can use to help me be the best mum I can 🩵
Here’s to getting one year older, one year wiser and one extra in the household! 🥳
