For fitness to stick...it needs to accomplish a few things...
1. Produce a desirable result.
2. Fit into a busy schedule consistently.
3. Be enjoyable on some level.
Instead of seeking out these qualities, many of us choose going HAM in every area of fitness and nutrition possible...
1. Super strict eating style...think no carbs, no sugar, keto, 8/16 intermittent fasting, etc. (boo)
2. Going from training inconsistently to 5-6 days a week (yikes!)
3. Starting a workout that we don't enjoy because we think the extra intensity of something REALLY hard and physically crushing will be a game changer.
But what often happens is we get hurt, we burn out, we have a set back, or don't see the radical change we feel we deserve for our sacrifice and give up.
If you are wanting to improve the way you look, move, and feel through a smart habit change progression eating model, build an effective training routine that you can sustain that will give you positive results, and enjoy the journey...reach out.
We are here for the person listening who wants to develop a winning mindset, nutrition, and fitness habits once and for all!
Giving Yourself a Break
Last week, I had a heart-to-heart with a client who felt like life's hurdles were barricading her path to her goals.
Juggling a high-pressure job, a bustling family life, and new responsibilities caring for her aging parents, she exclaimed, "There's ZERO time left for me!"
Sound familiar?
Here's the thing...She's spot-on! Life’s jam-packed sometimes. That's why my advice to her was: Give yourself a break! Cut yourself some slack...especially if you're the type who's always chasing milestones.
The trick isn't to be consistently "on" or "off" your health & fitness game. It's about doing your absolute BEST in the moment and tweaking your strategy as needed.
Remember, it's your daily habits that construct the lifestyle you want.
Opt for nutritious meals
Grab those opportunities to move—be it a stroll or a quick workout
Carve out 2-3 dedicated workout slots each week—make it non-negotiable!
Aim for 7-8 hours of quality sleep
These small but significant steps don't just upgrade your health; they elevate your life! More energy, less stress, and an invigorating sense of strength and excitement for each day.
Struggling to juggle it all? Maybe it's time to think about getting a coach. A supportive professional can offer accountability, provide big-picture insights, and help tailor a plan that fits your unique life and goals.
So go ahead, cut yourself some slack and focus on what you can control today. Your future self will thank you.

The Infinite Game of health & Fitness
Raise your hand if you’ve ever treated “healthy and fit” as a destination.
By that we mean, you set a goal, make a plan, and then brought it to life.
But then once you reached the goal, you slipped back into your old habits.
You are not alone! (Shocking stat: between 80% to 95% who lose weight eventually gain it all back.)
The fact is, being “healthy & fit” is a lifestyle.
The good news about THAT is that it’s not about being PERFECT. It’s about being consistent and making it part of your regular routine.
You may have a day where you:
Indulge in a cheat meal
Miss a workout
Don't get enough sleep
But that doesn't mean you've failed. It just means that the next day, you’re back on track. It's about long-term habits, not short-term fixes.
Something to think about: What's one thing you're doing TODAY, to make your health a part of your lifestyle, and NOT just a goal?
