I’ve been noticing a growing “anti-food tracking” movement lately, and honestly, it’s fascinating to me.

Why do people think there is only one way to do things?

Usually because there was only one way that worked for them.

One of the biggest red flags I see is when coaches preach the method that worked for them as the end-all, be-all solution. 🚩

The truth is, some people don’t need to track macros to lose weight, improve their health, or perform at their best.

And some people do.

Some people love data. Some people need data. Some people have been spinning their wheels for years and need more information to figure out what’s actually going on.

I always go back to the budget analogy.

If you’re living on a tight budget and struggling to make your money work, having a spreadsheet or written budget can be incredibly helpful. Not because it’s the only way to manage money, but because it gives you awareness and control.

Nutrition is no different.

If you’ve struggled with your weight, nutrition, or body composition for a long time, you may be operating in a space where more data is needed. That might mean food tracking.

It’s not a punishment.

It’s not an eating disorder.

It’s not a forever commitment.

It’s a tool.

I logged my food for YEARS. I don’t need to anymore, but sometimes I still do. And I don’t regret a single day of it because the knowledge I gained about my body and its needs is deep.

In fact, you can hand me almost any packaged food in the grocery store, and I can usually estimate the calories, protein, carbs, and fat within 10–20 calories. Ask my daughter. 🥲 it amazes her!

The goal isn’t to track forever.

The goal is to build awareness, learn, and develop skills so you can make informed decisions for the rest of your life.

Need help figuring out what approach is right for you? Send me a message. Whether that includes food tracking or not, let’s find the tool that actually fits your goals.

Strong Enough to Endure: An endurance memoir–on the trail and in life

03/30/2026

One of the hardest parts of writing my book—and the very reason hiring an editor was so important—was having someone help me keep my story on track. As a writer, everything feels essential. Every memory carries weight. Every race feels like it shaped you.

But it’s an editor’s job to ask the harder question: does it move the story forward?

My book includes stories from countless races and competitions—but not all of them made the final cut. Some were trimmed for clarity. Some for pacing. And some, though meaningful to me, simply didn’t serve the larger arc of the story.

Check out my blog where I posted a story cut from my book on my latest blog post.

Some days as an entrepreneur you wish someone else would just make the decisions for you.

Every day you’re deciding:
How to spend your money.
How to run your business.
What’s best for your clients.
What’s best for you.
What’s actually sustainable long-term.

After reflecting a bit, here are the 4 best decisions/purchases I’ve made for my business in the last 18 months.

1. Buying a MacBook

This one sounds simple, but it made a bigger difference than I expected.

I used a PC my entire professional life. The last time I touched a Mac was in high school when I edited the school newspaper.

But switching streamlined so many things—especially marketing and content creation. My phone and computer now work seamlessly together. No more emailing myself photos just to get them from my phone to my computer.

And being able to send texts from my computer with an actual keyboard? Amazing.

Bonus: I bought the laptop and immediately started using it to write my book. I’m pretty sure liking the computer so much helped me stay consistent with writing.

2. Moving to online scheduling

If you run a business that operates by appointment, here’s my advice:

Let go of the control and move to online scheduling.

I know a lot of professionals are hesitant to do this, but it is absolutely worth it.

I’ve used Square, Vagaro, and now Acuity. Acuity has been the best for building out my availability exactly how I want it.

Now I just send people a scheduling link instead of going back and forth with appointment times. It also keeps a card on file, so if someone no-shows, they’re automatically charged.

Zero regrets.

3. Eliminating tips

In January 2025, I stopped accepting tips and adjusted my prices instead.

Honestly, I had no idea how grateful people would be for this change—even with the price increase.

We live in a time where we’re tipping for everything. The moment that pushed me over the edge was when I was in Portland at a restaurant where I ordered at the counter, picked up my own food, grabbed my own silverware and drink—and the payment screen still asked for a tip.

In that moment I realized I couldn’t complain about tipping culture and still accept tips myself.

So I stopped.

Now I simply charge what I want to make and skip the tipping option completely. No awkward phone-handing moment. No pressure for clients.

And if someone questions it, I remind them:
You don’t tip your chiropractor or your physical therapist… why would you tip me?

4. Buying a washing machine for the office

This one might be the most ridiculous—and the most life-changing.

For 17 years I carried a bag of laundry home every night. Before bed I’d wash the sheets. In the morning I’d move them to the dryer while making coffee.

Every. Single. Day.

Until about a month ago when I thought… why am I still doing this?

So I bought a ductless, all-in-one washer/dryer that plugs into a regular outlet. All I needed was a plumber to install it.

Now the laundry stays at work.
I leave work at work.
And I don’t haul sheets home anymore.

Add in online scheduling and I’m calling it five stars

Tomorrow is the day.

I saved this last recommendation because it’s my genre—a running memoir—and it’s the one that gave me the final push to just write the damn book.

To the Gorge by Emily Halnon


Emily weaves together her story as a runner with the story of losing her mom to cancer. The miles and the grief unfold side by side. The training, the landscape, the physical endurance—it all becomes a container for processing loss.

It hit very close to home for me.

As much as I didn’t want Armando’s cancer to be what my book was about, his story shaped me. It influenced my decisions. It changed how I moved through the world. Reading Emily’s words helped me understand that you can write about running and still tell the deeper truth underneath it.

Her bravery, her honesty, her journey—it all inspired me more than I can say.

This is my final book recommendation in the countdown.

Tomorrow, Strong Enough to Endure is out in the world. If you feel inclined, I hope you’ll order a copy—or simply share my post so someone else who needs it can see it.

Thank you for being here for this. 🖤

2 Days.

I’m not a huge Stephen King fan. Not for any reason other than it’s just not my usual genre. I’ve read a couple of his novels, and of course I’ve seen several movies based on his books.

But this one?

So good.

If you are a writer, read this book.

On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft by Stephen King

The memoir portion at the beginning is genuinely fun. Learning about his childhood, the rejections, the persistence, and how he got started—it’s encouraging in the most grounded way. No magic formula. Just writing. A lot of it.

But the advice in the second half of the book? Clear. Direct. Practical.

His core advice is this:
“Write with the door closed, rewrite with the door open.”

Meaning:

The first draft is for you.
The story belongs entirely to you until you know what it is and get it right.

Write with the door closed so you’re not distracted. So you’re not self-conscious. So no one’s premature criticism derails the story you’re trying to tell.

After it’s finished—after you’ve done your own revisions—then you open the door. Then you invite feedback.

When I was writing my book, I could hear him in my head:
Don’t let anyone read it until you’re done.

That advice protected the early, fragile version of my story. It gave me permission to write honestly before worrying about how it would be received.

3 Days!

I just recently read The Let Them Theory. I know—I’m late to the party.

A client recommended it to me because it helped her navigate some family “stuff” she was struggling with. And I remember thinking, man… maybe I need to read that too.

Turns out, I did.

The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins

The concept is simple, but not easy:
Let them.

Let them misunderstand you.
Let them judge you.
Let them make their own choices.
Let them have their opinions.

And then—let me.

Let me choose how I respond.
Let me protect my peace.
Let me stop trying to control what isn’t mine to control.

In this book, Mel Robbins explores how much energy we waste trying to manage other people’s behavior, emotions, and expectations. She reframes personal power as the ability to release control over others and take responsibility for our own actions instead. The message is about boundaries, self-trust, and emotional freedom.

It’s practical. It’s direct. And depending on where you are in life, it might hit exactly when you need it.
