    I don’t know about you, but the month of May has been pretty crazy, and has flown by! Between Mother’s Day, my wedding anniversary, my birthday, and other special occasions (like my daughter's high school graduation), it’s a fun month I always look forward to. I also know this can be a challenging time of year as kids are finishing up school, and everyone is transitioning to summer..which also means you may feel like you won’t be able to stay on track with your fitness goals. I used to feel this way, but over the years, I’ve gotten to the place of realizing I CAN make positive progress - you can too! It all comes down to consistency, and being super intentional with what you’re working toward.

    Soo much of your health and fitness is super simple - you don’t need to overcomplicate everything, contrary to what the diet and fitness industry wants you to believe. It really comes down to actually knowing your long-term goals, and staying committed to the process - even if your weight loss, muscle gain, etc., is going slower than you would like it to. I want you to start building sustainable habits that work for YOU, no matter what your season of life looks like right now.

    I hope this real talk episode gives you the encouragement you need to stop quitting on yourself, and take action to keep moving forward. Staying consistent with your fitness goals doesn’t have to feel daunting or unachievable, just because it’s Summer time - I know you can do it, and I’m here to support you on your journey, too!

    In this episode, Navigating Busy Seasons and Staying Consistent with Your Fitness Goals, we cover:

    • The realization that you really CAN achieve your goals, once you get back to a place of listening to your body and being intentional with what you’re doing
    • Being able to enjoy foods that you love to eat, while gaining control and tracking macros in a way that works for you
    • Why slow and steady weight loss is NOT a bad thing + knowing your long-term goal(s) and committing to the changes you’re making
    • Building sustainable habits and finding those little wins along the way, no matter how crazy busy your season of life

  • 112. Unf*ck Your Fitness with Intentionality
    May 14 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    Today’s episode topic isn’t necessarily groundbreaking information, or anything you’ve never heard before, but..it’s pretty damn important! When it comes to your health and fitness, intentionality is KEY. While it’s a pretty basic concept, too often, we ‘unintentionally’ drift into unhealthy habits (or habits we weren't setting out to create). We don’t usually realize this has happened, but it can feel really difficult to get back to being intentional with our workouts, macros, water intake, sleep, and so on.


    The truth of the matter is, you will NOT be able to reach your health and fitness goals long-term without being intentional - end of story! I’ve learned that there’s no such thing as ‘winging it’ - you’ve got to know your purpose, and have some kind of plan of action so you know what you’re working toward. You need to be making deliberate choices to create the life you want, instead of just letting life ‘happen’ to you.


    No, you don’t need to wait for next Monday, next month, or next year to start making progress toward your goals. Keep intentionality at the forefront of your mind, and I KNOW you will be able to craft the body (and the life) you deserve!!


    In this episode, Unf*ck Your Fitness with Intentionality, we cover:

    • Why you won’t really get healthy and reach your fitness goals without being intentional
    • Living with purpose and some kind of plan, instead of just ‘winging it’ with your health and fitness
    • Getting out of the vicious ‘I’ll just wait to start again on Monday’ cycle + why this pattern is incredibly detrimental for your long-term health goals
    • Being intentional by taking inventory of your current season of life + making adjustments where necessary, in order to create new habits that actually work for you
    • How powerful shifting your mindset and choosing to follow through with your actions can be

  • 111. Understanding the Smart Scale and How It Can Transform Your Health and Fitness
    May 7 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    Today’s episode is covering a VERY requested topic I’ve gotten lately - the smart scale!

    I personally use the RENPHO Smart Scale, and I absolutely love it! I highly encourage my clients to get a smart scale, because it tracks SO much more than a typical scale that just gives you your body weight. The smart scale provides some pretty fascinating data when it comes to health metrics, but I promise to keep the information I’m sharing here simple and digestible (no BS like always!), so you can see how this would potentially benefit you and your specific health goals, lifestyle, etc.

    In today’s episode, I’m talking all about understanding the smart scale, and the unique metrics that are possible when utilizing this device. From tracking your BMI (body mass index) and body fat percentage, to the different types of fat (subcutaneous and visceral), skeletal muscle, bone mass, and more, the smart scale is giving you information for all of YOUR specific metrics. The smart scale even gives you information on your protein intake and why protein is so important, your ‘body water’ (so you can see how hydrated you really are), and your metabolic age (which is different from your ‘actual’ age).

    My goal with this episode was to break down these numbers and metrics, and really help you take more of a proactive approach versus reactive approach with your health. It shouldn’t be difficult or feel overwhelming to use your smart scale; I’ve found that doing so will absolutely improve your relationship with the scale, which is pretty powerful in itself. I hope that learning about the smart scale gives you the confidence and control with your health and fitness that you deserve, friend!

    The RENPHO Smart Scale (which I use and love)!

  • 110. Learning to Pivot and Embrace Change on Your Fitness Journey
    Apr 30 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    I’ve been noticing a common theme when working with my clients lately - it’s also something that I’ve experienced myself, and have come to realize I’m really good at doing.


    The ability to be able to pivot, and really embrace more flexibility on my fitness journey in a way that feels authentic to me has helped me SO much - it’s kind of my specialty. I’ve been at this for over 15 years now, so you could say I’ve had to pivot a time (or two) along the way! I’m currently in an extremely busy and chaotic season in my own life. While a lot of these are new things I’m navigating and am figuring out as I go, I’m also NOT letting it keep me from prioritizing my fitness and nutrition.


    Taking time to plan your fitness and nutrition around all of your day to day ‘stuff’ is key. We’re ALL busy, and while I think this often can be an excuse, I also know you can’t juggle ALL.THE.THINGS in every season of life you’re in. Sticking to a program that is too rigid with little wiggle room will lead you to feeling like you’re a failure when you miss a workout, or eat foods that you ‘aren’t supposed to’.


    I can’t stress this enough - the ability to pivot well in your fitness journey is super important. In order to NOT quit, you have to learn how to pivot, adjust when necessary, and embrace change - I truly believe this should be a welcomed part of your journey!


    In this episode, we cover:

    • Planning your fitness & nutrition around all the other ‘life’ stuff you have going on in this season
    • Understanding that being ‘too busy’ is an excuse, but also realizing that balance really is a facade and you can’t juggle #allthethings
    • How I support my clients with ‘pivoting’ their health and fitness as they’re navigating different and challenging seasons
    • Why you need to stop setting yourself up for failure and set yourself up for success instead
    • Doing an 'audit' of your schedule + what this looks like in my own life right now

  • 109. The Importance of Fixing Your Relationship with the Scale
    Apr 23 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    Have you ever felt like the scale is basically your worst enemy when it comes to your health and fitness??


    I hear often from the ladies I work with that they’re either weighing themselves daily and are super fixated on the results, or they’re never stepping foot on the scale and want to steer clear of it all together. Either way, the scale still seems to control SO much of how we feel about ourselves and our overall health. This is something I've personally struggled with in the past, because the scale used to hold so much meaning for me too. Fortunately, I’m in a place now where I don’t dread stepping on the scale. It’s simply a metric for me to celebrate my body’s capacity for strength and transformation; the number staring back at me doesn’t dictate how I feel about myself, or my worth.


    While I do believe the scale can be very helpful and it is important to understand, it’s not the ‘be-all, end-all’ when it comes to your health and fitness. It IS possible to foster a healthy relationship with the scale - one that aligns with your fitness goals and your emotional well-being. No matter where you fall when it comes to the scale, I want you to be confident in yourself. You ARE worthy, regardless of what that number says!

    In this episode, the importance of fixing your relationship with the scale, we cover:

    • Deciding how often you’re going to weigh yourself + not letting it have a mental or emotional ‘hold’ over you
    • Why having a positive relationship with the scale DOES matter
    • My journey with the scale growing up + why so many of us are still negatively impacted by the scale as adults
    • My experience using the Renpho smart scale
    • Understanding that you can change your body drastically, within just a few pounds
    • 5 key things that actually help my clients in regards to the number on the scale

  • 108. How I Approach Fitness: Consistency and Patience
    Apr 16 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    I will say this forever....consistency is the key to getting the healthy, fit body you want. Patience plays a big part as well. I started my Spring cut a few weeks ago and it has been a SLOW progress. In years past I would have gotten very discouraged and went to drastic measures to lose a few pounds. This year I am proud of my mindset and ability to show up despite not seeing changes on the scale. I have been reminded of the importance of consistency during this process and in this episode I am giving you little update on my cut as well as some insight on things I have been reminded of, I think both will help you.

    Slow and steady wins this race. I think this episode will be a good reminder of what matters in this journey and will give you reassurance that we ALL struggle and that the progress will come if you put in the work.

  • 106. Energy Balance: A Healthy Way to View Macros and Movement
    Apr 2 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    The entire point of unf*cking your fitness is to think about things differently, in a way that actually works, so you can stop the diet cycle you are stuck in.

    Do you "burn off" calories you've eaten?
    Do you do extra cardio so you can eat more? Earn your food?
    Do you obsess over macros and calories?

    I used to do those things too! The good news is you can redefine your relationship with fitness and food!

    Imagine appreciating each calorie not as something to burn off on the treadmill but as the energy that takes you through life. This episode will help you understand how sustainable fitness is more than just workouts and food tracking; it's a way to build a healthy body you love.

    The way you think impacts the way you act. There are essential mindset shifts that will transform the way you view your health journey and therefore change the action you take. In this episode I explain my simple process and how I made this mindset switch so I am able to have a very healthy relationship with food, movement and my body.

    Let's make another mindset shift and make fitness an enjoyable and long lasting part of our lives. I hope you love this episode!
