So many moments with those I love over Christmas time. So grateful for all the moments. Xmas Eve Raclette dinner, Christmas visit from Nana and Poppa, and celebrated what would have been my mom’s 81st birthday 12/26 with those who loved her.

Happy Father’s Day to the most playful, fun, doting dad to his kids. His love for his kids was part of why I fell in love with him. ♥️♥️♥️ Here’s to many more years of raising dogs and bikes together 🤣.

Taking a pause. Sometimes I can’t keep up. I’m on week 2 of a 3 week workout program I’ve done dozens of times. My virtual group came back to it as an old favorite to do together. And it’s KICKING. MY BUTT.

I’m glad I didn’t realize it was cardio again today. My calves are still sore from Friday’s cross jacks.

It’s hard to see where I’ve lost endurance. I could be hard on myself for gaining lots of pounds over the last 2 years. But who would that serve? Instead I’m explaining to myself the very obvious physics that these workouts are a lot harder when you are carrying a 20 pound dumbbell (that’s the equivalent). So instead of being mad at myself, I’m proud of my effort and I’m excited to see progress in the workouts as I gradually shed what weight I can. That’s it.

What would happen if we applied this grace to ourselves in ALL aspects of our lives??

I’m grateful beyond measure for these daughters in my life. Being surrounded by your strength, creativity, curiosity and love makes me a better human. Happy daughter’s day!

Happy Father’s Day to such a devoted dad. Tirelessly pouring into all 47 children. ♥️♥️♥️ I am so grateful for you.

In case you are feeling as inspired and creative about school lunch making as I am these days, I wanted to share my Pinterest-worthy photo. Cold pizza and a paper plate. Feel free to like, save and share! 😜

Starts Monday!! This is a FREE online group I’m running with another health coach to spring clean our kitchens 🥄 and our nutrition 🥬. Week 1 we prep for the nutrition cleanup and do small kitchen declutter projects each day. Week 2 we provide recipes, optional meal plans and food prep tips to help you to improve how you feel from the food you eat. We are going to tackle it all with humor and a judgment-free approach. Comment below or message me if you want to be added to the group!

I just found a hair on my chin that was 4 feet long. This is why we need to see friends IN PERSON. The best girl friends will always tell you when you have a 4 foot long facial hair that needs attention.

Overcoming my own excuses was and continues to be my biggest challenge. That’s why I coach. Getting healthy is not a destination; it’s a lifestyle. And I keep working at it.

5+ years ago I was stuck in the mindset that my clinically obese weight was just how it was going to be. That was my 40 year old mom body. But I was tired of my joints hurting, tired of having no energy, tired of reflux, and tired of feeling like I had given up.

I needed something, someone, to keep me accountable! I obviously wasn't doing it myself.

I decided to go all in. I said yes to coaching 🙋🏻‍♀️. I wasn’t a trainer. I wasn’t a nutritionist. I had everything to learn.

I didn’t decide to coach because I thought I had any idea how to coach others on their fitness and nutrition journey or because I wanted to build an empire 💰, but because I knew if I INVITED people to JOIN ME in my journey, we could keep each other accountable and HAVE FUN doing it.

5+ years later, so much has changed!
🤩I have more energy! 🔥
🤩I eat (and enjoy) vegetables...whaaat?! 🥦
🤩 I workout nearly every day (from zero workouts for YEARS) 💪🏻
🤩 I love the woman I have become. Although I still have nutrition and health goals, I have built a network of gentle accountability and support all around me to keep me putting one foot (and one vegetable) in front of another.

Saying yes to this opportunity is the BEST thing I have ever done for myself. I'm sharing about it LIVE for the first time on Zoom this Sunday at 7pm EST.

Does this story sound like yours? Maybe there's something in it for you too? Hang with me for a bit on Sunday and see what it's all about.
Busy? That's ok! I'll send you the recording after.

Deeeeelicious Lentil loaf. Cooked my lentils in the Instantpot and they were too soft/wet, so it was more of a thick spead than a firm loaf. But soooo good. Yes add the chipotle pepper. Yes make the simple glaze. 🤤
