I wanted to change not because I hated myself or my body, but because I knew I deserved to be treated better (by ME), I just didn’t have the skills or tools or motivation to dig in and learn the things yet. I was consciously choosing fast food/treats/soda to medicate my stress and overwhelm, and struggling through my days with an unhappy undertone because I knew I was ultimately mistreating myself. What a vicious cycle it was to be caught up in! 😫 So thankful to this day that even after at least two failed attempts at turning a new leaf in those postpartum months with baby #2 (Ethan), I finally got to the point of feeling *in my bones* that enough was enough, and I dove in head first to a nutrition and at home fitness plan that would be the catalyst for a whole new level of presence in my own life and the lives of my kids, spouse, family etc 💝
When you start taking care of yourself in a meaningful way, your attitude s h i f t s. You don’t hide in the back of or over-criticize yourself in photos. You’re able to live full-out, confidently present and comfortable in the space you inhabit because you’re intentionally caring for it. Throw in a daily practice of growing your mind/inner self? And wow. That’s what fitness and this coaching gig have done for me. Oh and add being connected to wonderful people all over the place who are growth-minded, encouraging, and on a similar journey too? 🤯🦋💖 Remind me why I didn’t start this the first time someone asked me if I’d ever considered it?!? Which for the record was about 3 years before I finally did!
Take it from me, there’s everything to gain and nothing to lose by starting. No need to waste time and opportunity for even more growth like I did 🙄🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️💃🏻 That awesome Karen Lamb quote definitely applies: “a year from now you’ll wish you’d started today” 🕰 Time’s a tickin’ on by! I’m here to jump over to the other side with you and be a guide and friend along your journey 👯♀️🌱💖
If you’re feeling a tug to make a change right now, that’s a sign that it’s TIME! Let me know in a comment or a message that you’re ready/curious/would like more details/to chat and we can level up together 🤩🙌🏻✨
