    Oct 24 2024

    Send us a text

    I can't believe I freaking qualified for the DEKA World Championship on TWO different teams! I'll be competing in the DEKA Strong teams event with my daughter and with another trainer and good friend of mine.

    Today I'm sharing some behind the scenes of what this means for me and re-settting my goals and expectations (again). Balancing the desire to do well with the reality that I am a mom who works full time and 100% NOT a professional athlete is tough but not impossible. Follow along this series over the next couple of months and see how the lessons learned apply to your own life.

  • 165. Stop letting your excuses hold you back!
    Oct 2 2024

    Send us a text

    Do you have excuses or do you have legitamate obstacles you need to learn how to navigate? You're not lazy. You're just a real life adult with real life responsibilities that you might need to learn how to work around. The "no excuse" mindset might be doing you more harm than good. Instead, learn how to identify and navigate your obstacles so they don't become chronic excuses.

  • 164. Hot take on "healthy swap" recipes
    Sep 25 2024

    Send us a text

    Here's a hot take for you as we head into the holiday season...That healthy swap recipe you found online is never going to scratch the itch. I mean it's never going to ACTUALLY replace the REAL thing. Don't fall into the trap of having a "healthy swap" and then continuing to overindulge on something else because you weren't actually satisfied. Also, is that high protien thing actually high in protein or was it just made with a protein powder supplement so they called it high protein?

  • 163: THIS is why I want you to take the focus off of losing weight
    Sep 18 2024

    Send us a text

    If losing weight is important to you, it's important to me too. But if losing weight is ALL that's important to you, you're missing the point and you're likely making your journey more difficult than it needs to be. In today's episode, Megan shares what happens when you take the focus OFF of the scale and focus on other areas of health and longevity.

  • 162. What to do when you don't hit your goal
    Sep 11 2024

    Send us a text

    So many of us create goals so we have something to go after. However, the goals we set are not always realistic and reasonable so we miss them completely. Next we get frustrated with our progress, or lack of progress, and we make an emotional decision as a result. This often leads to more unrealistic goals and some self-sabotage. In this episode, Megan shares about a goal she recently missed and what she did when she found herself on the emotional rollercoaster afterwards.

    Send us a text

    It's back to school season and that can only mean one thing...Next thing you know, we'll be ringing in the new year. I know it feels SO FAR away right now but so many of us tend to let our health slide these last few months of the year and next thing you know we're having to start all over again in the new year. NOT THIS YEAR! Here's what I'm doing to avoid that trap.
