Hi friend, Last week, we breathed together through Gratitude. This week… we’re stepping into something many of us live inside without even noticing: Chaos. Noise. Clutter. Mental overload.The pile we keep walking past. A story… Two days ago, I stood in my closet — overwhelmed, emotional, holding things I hadn’t touched in years. Clothes that didn’t feel like me anymore. Pieces from seasons I’ve already healed through. Things I kept out of habit, guilt, or… just because they’d always been...

This slow, somatic practice gently reconnects you to your breath, your body, and the life that moves through you every day. Feel your body that carries you, protects you, and shows up, even...

I was praised for self-silencing & applauded for shrinking Hi friend, For most of my life, I lived up to being a Good Girl.Not because I was naturally quiet or compliant — I was actually wild, brave, loud, and full of fire. But early on, I learned the unspoken rules: Be sweet.Be agreeable.Be polite.Be small. Every room taught me something about who I was “supposed” to be — as a daughter, as a woman, as a wife, and especially as a Christian. And I followed those rules so wellthat I forgot I...

The Unplugging: From Punishment (From Myself) (Series 2 of 5 — The Unplugging Series) Unplugging from punishment, learning (all over) how to move with love not fear. It started as my dad’s voice. Then the church’s.And somewhere along the way, it became my own. For most of my life, I didn’t realize how deeply I was plugged into punishment. It started with someone else’s voice — 🌬️ a dad who made fitness an idol, who equated beauty with approval, who demanded performance over peace. And...

Hello from My Porch 🌸☀️☔️🍁 Hey sweet friend, On July 8th, life forced me to slow down — in the most bizarre way. I stabbed my hand on an avocado seed (yes… it’s okay to laugh or cry), and what seemed like a small kitchen accident turned into nerve and artery surgery, three months of recovery, and a full stop to so much of what I was “used to” pushing through. 🥑🔪 I couldn’t create the way I normally do.I couldn’t rush.I couldn’t grip — literally or emotionally. my precious healing porch...

Let’s go! The rest of the July calendar is planned out and ready for you to press play and sweat. If you need a...

Hi friend, I’ll be the first to say it… I’ve been quiet in your inbox. 🫠 😶 Between moving my college kids, moving my mom, filming workouts, chasing farm dogs and running a small business, life has felt like a whirlwind lately.

💕 Grace, Rhythm & Support 💕 Of all the opportunities I've had the past 48 years, being a mom has been my favorite. More than any trip or friendship. Greater than any creative endeavor or business idea. I've loved being a mom the most. I remember how crazy May is for most every mom out there. In my family we have Mother's Day (today), my anniversary (tomorrow), my daughter's birthday in 2 weeks and my husbands birthday 5 days after that. Throw in school parties, sports schedules and some...

Life's High's and Low's Hi Reader, I’ve been reflecting a lot lately—and if I’m honest, there’s been a quiet heaviness I’ve been carrying. April marks six years since I made one of the hardest decisions of my life: setting a boundary with my dad, who raised me in a home where health and control often walked a fine line. While I’m deeply thankful for the way it shaped my passion for fitness, this month always stirs up a complicated mix of grief, strength, and growth. Add to that… My kids are...
