Hey there. I’m frustrated by algorithms. The internet has been part of my life for over twenty-five years, and I’m tired of scrolling and being fed what I’m supposedly wanting to see next. I think a lot of people feel the same way. Especially those of us who are thirty-five and older. We remember what life was like before social media, before smartphones, before the endless loop of algorithm-driven content.
Read MoreHey there. Something I talk about a lot is how, from this point forward, you can go in whatever direction you want. Your life up to this moment has shaped you, but moving forward is your responsibility. You have the power to choose where you go next. It doesn’t matter how you got here. What matters is what you do from here.
Read MoreHey there. There are a lot of things in life that we can’t control. I want to acknowledge that first because today, I want to focus on what we can control. We have the power to take action on the things that will actually change if we put in the effort. And beyond that, it’s about how we view this process. If we believe in ourselves, if we see ourselves as capable, that’s where real change begins.
Read MoreHey there. What I want for everyone, including you, is to be able to appreciate and love the body you are in while you put in the effort to change it. If you are exercising regularly and following an eating plan based on your preferences, your body is going to change. It may not look like someone else's, but it will evolve in a way that works for you.
Read MoreHey there. For the longest time, I was chasing something. Maybe you’ve been chasing too. The belief that one day, if I just did enough, learned enough, or proved enough, I would finally feel like I belonged. I would finally feel like I was enough.
Read MoreHey there. Body dysmorphia is like a ghost that lingers, no matter how much you try to move forward. It’s something I’ve seen over and over in the fitness space. People lose weight, transform their bodies, and yet, when they look in the mirror, they still see their old selves staring back. It’s not just a passing thought. It’s a deep-seated perception that refuses to let go.
Read MoreHey there. If you’re reading this, I want you to know something right off the bat, you’re not behind. You’re not stuck. You’re exactly where you need to be right now.
Read MoreHey there. You have to trust your perspective. That’s something I’ve learned through my own journey, and it’s something I talk about often because it matters in every area of life. But before you can trust your perspective, you need to actually figure out what it is.
Read MoreHey there. Have you ever stopped to think about how much time you spend on your phone? I don’t mean just the moments you’re intentionally checking emails or sending a quick message. I’m talking about the endless scrolling, the notifications that keep buzzing, and the constant pressure to stay connected.
Read MoreHey there. You ever feel like loving yourself is a concept that sounds good in theory, but when it comes to actually doing it, you hesitate? You’re not alone. For a lot of us, especially when we’re on a weight loss journey or trying to “better” ourselves, it feels like loving who we are right now is the exact opposite of what we should be doing. But what if I told you that loving yourself isn’t just a feel-good idea, it’s the foundation for real change?
Read MoreHey there. How curious are you in your day-to-day life? I mean really... do you ever wonder how things work, how people got to where they are, or why certain situations unfold the way they do? Curiosity often gets overlooked as we grow older, but I believe it’s essential for keeping life fresh, keeping us fresh.
Read MoreHey there. Here’s a truth that might be hard to hear but is absolutely essential: You can’t truly appreciate your body until you love yourself first. I know that sounds cliché, maybe even frustrating, especially if you’ve been working hard on your fitness journey and aren’t seeing the results you want emotionally. But it’s the foundation of real, lasting change. Everything starts from the inside out.
Read MoreHey there. What do you really want for yourself? Not what others expect of you, not what society tells you is the “right” path, but what you truly want. It’s a big question, one that many people avoid because it forces them to confront the reality of their choices. But if you never take the time to ask yourself this, you might wake up years from now feeling stuck in a life that was never really yours.
Read MoreHey there. So many people hesitate to start something new because they think they’re not ready. They tell themselves they need more time, more resources, more confidence before they take the leap. But here’s the thing, you already have everything you need to start.
Read MoreHey there. Everyone’s approach to an active lifestyle is different. While structure and consistency matter, what fills that framework has to be based on your preferences and your ability level. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to fitness or nutrition, it all comes down to what works for you.
Read MoreHey there. When it comes to exercise, we hear a lot about willpower and discipline. But what if I told you that you don’t actually need either one to stay consistent? The key isn’t pushing yourself through a constant mental battle, it’s setting up your routine in a way that removes the need for motivation altogether.
Read MoreHey there. The internet is an amazing tool for connecting with people who share common interests. It allows us to learn, discover, and build relationships in ways that weren’t possible before. But when it comes to figuring out who you truly are? The internet is a terrible guide.
Read MoreHey there. Therapy is one of the most powerful tools we have for personal growth. A productive relationship with a therapist allows us to untangle the complicated thoughts and emotions we’ve carried for years and truly connect with who we are. But getting to that point isn’t always easy.
Read MoreHey there. A lot of times, the most obvious things we talk about are the most profound. These are the things that truly lead to change.
