Sometimes I need a mental reset.
I can get lost in my small world of fitness and family and forget the bigger picture of what all I am truly blessed to be a part of.
It's so easy as women to find ourself focused on the urgent, the painful, or the next escape 🌦
But to take a step back and see that we are part of a larger community both locally and online, is so important.
The mental and emotional repair that comes from knowing that we are all contributors to the world around us and that we can both give to others and receive from them as well is so freeing.
Take a step back.
Look at the bigger picture today.
Breathe. Be Grateful. Be a Daring Woman.
Trust your Tribe 👏🏼
This week I'm on a trip with my daughter and her high school friends. A lot of them helped me film an amazing Pilates workout that I've just put on YouTube for anyone to use (please 👍🏼 & subscribe!)
These are friends she's had for the past 5-10 years and we are celebrating one last time before they all head their separate ways next year 🥺
As we prepared for this trip I was often reminded how difficult our relationships are as women.
The internal pressures to be or look a certain way.
The small offenses that grow over time unless they are addressed.
I have also seen how wonderful deep friendships can be and how much joy they bring.
The tears and face hurt from laughing so hard 🤣
The deep talks about our hearts and dreams 💫
Show up for someone.
Be an encourager, a truth speaker, an empathetic ear, a meal deliverer, a workout partner, a forgiveness seeker, a wise counselor, a joke teller, a gift giver.
Someone needs the perspective that you bring.

🍁 Hello Friends, Happy October 🍁 It's taken me longer this year to get my bearings on this season than most school years. Maybe it's because for the first time in forever I'm not driving to drop off or pick up a kiddo! Or participating in any after school activities. W E I R D! I now sit here in October wondering who am I? My role as a women and as a mom has changed once again. Sometimes new eras are so wonderful and other times so challenging and confusing! Time for some vulnerable honesty...
We CAN do hard things! Would you believe public speaking scares me to death! I can lead a 300 person group fitness class easy peasy, but stand in one spot, just talking to an open room of strangers without doing squats!!? I faint!!! 😨 My friend Karen Shields asked me to speak to a group of college girls at Arkansas State a few months ago. I had four months to prep and mentally prepare, but sadly I showed up with a canker sore and big nerves. I had a huge relief when it was over but I also...
Hello Friends, it's been a minute 🤍 Happy September from me and my grown up babies!! Reuniting with Silas after he was gone for 3 long summer months QUESTION!! How are you holding up? I'd love to hear from you. Many of us have had a few weeks now with kiddos back in school. We've had a moment to breathe and we all realize it's time to prioritize ourselves again. Are any of you wondering how to make that happen? Some seasons (like summer) can knock us off our regularly scheduled program and...
