I have a confession to make. A few days ago I looked in the mirror and didn’t recognize the woman looking back at me for the first time ever. This woman had dark circles under her eyes. Her unwashed hair was wild, unkept and hadn’t seen a dye job in eight months (grey hair is not a good look for …
What would you accomplish if motivation was unlimited? Would you start that business you’ve always dreamed of? Finally slimmed down and added a few pounds of muscle to your frame? Or perhaps you would finally quit your job to travel the world for a few months. Whatever it is, motivation plays a huge role in what we achieve and don’t …
As a culture, we’ve gotten really, really good at sharing every thought that crosses our brains no matter how insignificant. If you’ve checked social media lately, we are literally screaming at the top of our digital lungs about the shape of our eyebrows, the food we ate or about the election (still!). We all do it, but the downside to …
Growing up, I associated femininity with sexuality. A feminine woman, I learned, was desirable, sexy, slim, and could captivate anyone in the room by her sheer presence and hotness. I was 12 years old, flat chested, awkward and a far cry from feminine, or at least, my interpretation of it. I figured I’d grow into this feminine body somehow, but I …
Here’s what we’re NOT going to discuss here: How to eat healthy over Thanksgiving and not gain weight. Even though Thanksgiving is only one day, the eating portion lasts nearly a week in some households. And I for one, do not expect you to skip the pumpkin pie in the name of fitness. I want you to look good naked but …
Man, oh man! Week one had me fired up! Even on days when a workout felt like a chore, just knowing that we’re on this journey together was enough to get me back on track. I hope it was the same for you, too! If you haven’t tuned into the Instagram check-ins, here a few of mine from this week. …
What’s stopping you from living a blissful, authentic and healthy life? Is it poor habits, self-doubt, or a hectic schedule? Or maybe, you’re feeling bored with your routine and not sure what to do anymore. Trust, me I’ve been there, especially around this time of year. Once fall rolls around it’s easy to get lost in the hustle of the …
They say you shouldn’t compare your ‘behind the scenes’ to someone else’s ‘highlight reel.’ This is meant to make us feel better about the narcissist posts we see on social media. The unfortunate side of social media is that it’s turned us into our own monsters. We compare our significant others, our training, our bodies to those on our social …
Before I dive into this week’s post, I am really digging these chocolate espresso banana bread muffins from PaleOMG. So easy to make, so delicious, I devoured them over the course of two days. They were good while they lasted. I highly suggest making yourself a batch, or three. No judgement here. Ok, glad to get that off my chest. In between making …
My first half-marathon was a flat course in Boston on an unusual 80 degree Saturday morning. Most runners will tell you that a flat course is good for setting new PRs and a solid choice for first time runners. My only goal was to finish the race without dying. Thankfully, I finished the race in one piece, but it was …
