There are moments when I want to quit. There are moments I want to settle. There are moments I feel like a terrible leader and an inadequate woman. There are moments I feel like no matter how hard I try it’s never enough. Then there are moments like this. When I was a little girl,… Continue reading I Left This One for Last, This One is For You Mom <3

Have you ever been broken up into groups and think, “Oh I’m going to be the group leader… step aside EVERYONE ELSE” LOL ?

There is Beauty Inside You, I Promise.
I got a message from a customer today, who told me I was always beautiful inside, even when I was overweight. As much as I appreciated the sentiment, I absolutely disagreed. There were many years where I was a shitty person. I was reckless, elitist, closed off, judgmental, angry, manipulative, and cold. Granted all… Continue reading There is Beauty Inside You, I Promise.

A Typical Day of Eating
This is what a typical day of eating looks like for me. I felt the need to post it because I hear the craziest things about why people don’t want to get healthy and fit!

Failure is the Only Acceptable Option
Are you afraid of failure? I’m not. To me failure is the only acceptable option. I lift weights, the heavier the better, and I never lift anything I can finish.

Some women feel they lose their beauty as they age. Some women are afraid to turn 30. Some women are clinging to youth as if it is something that defines their desirability. I’M NOT. I absolutely grew into myself in so many ways. When I was in my 20s I was unsure, unclear and apologetic.… Continue reading Confidence is the Sexiest Thing a Woman Can Have
Settling is a Load of Crap

Go As Far As You Can See … When You Get There, You’ll See Further.
You know what is really crazy? At this point, I don’t even remember being that heavy. I don’t know who that girl is. I no longer speak victim, I don’t understand not taking action, I’m confused by “I can’t” and when I hear things like “It’s too hard” or “It’s too expensive” all I can… Continue reading Go As Far As You Can See … When You Get There, You’ll See Further.
