Fall in love with taking care of your body, mind, and soul.
•
What’s stopping you from taking the opportunity? I have so many of you that message me and are interested in creating a healthier life, but then you stop yourself. Take the leap!You are braver than you believe.
•
Push your limits during your workouts! You might be tired, but you can do those last 2 push ups! You are stronger than you seem.
•
Start reading a book, doing word puzzles, or sudoku! Paint a picture, hike using a map, let yourself day dream. Push your mind and let it create!You are smarter than you think.
•
Learn how to love yourself as much as you can and I promise, you will never regret taking care of you! You cannot give to others if you do not give to yourself. You are worthy of life, love, good health, and happiness. You are more loved than you know. 💛

A non-scale victory I’m sharing tonight. Lately, I’ve been getting a lot of messages about how strong my core looks. I’ve had ladies ask me how to get the definition and honestly it’s been extremely hard work.
•
Here’s the thing: I haven’t had a strong core in over 4 years. Adenomyosis has destroyed my lower abdominal muscles due to so much cramping, and I have even gone to physical therapy for it. Abdominal exercises are extremely difficult and I have to work so hard to work those muscles. Yes, I have muscle definition, but it hasn’t come easy at all.
•
The first move I am doing are modified bicycle crunches. I physically cannot do regular ones without pain in my lower abs...but clearly the move is still working for me! The second move isn’t modified at all and WOW am I proud! This was a tough core control movement but it felt amazing to finish so strong.
•
I am thankful for physical therapy showing me how to safely perform moves, and @joelfreemanfitness and @beachbody for giving me the opportunity to modify while still gaining results.
•
Chronic conditions are no fun, but they also aren’t a reason to give up! As a dancer, I was born to move my body and push my limits...and adenomyosis has just been something that has taught me to move in different ways! Work with your body and accept the journey you are on!!

The sun has never felt so good. California is full of smoke and blue skies haven’t been lasting too long. Working out outside hasn’t been a smart option...so I’ve been inside a lot ☹️
•
I swear I am solar powered; I am my best when I can feel the heat of the sun on my skin. I love watching the sun set and rise, as well as the happiness from simply being outdoors. I feel blessed to live in a state with so much sunshine and great weather, so when I cannot be outside as much, my heart is heavy.
•
The sun also happens to remind me of my favorite color, yellow. This has always been the color I am most drawn to, as well as a color others compare me to! I am inspired by the sun and yellow for bringing happiness, warmth, and light to this world. I hope to radiate as much positivity as they do in my own life; spread love, kindness, and warmth to everyone around me!
•
Cheers to a beautiful Monday, and a great week!✨

My absolute favorite pre-workout combo! If you don’t properly fuel your body before a workout, your workout will not be as successful!
•
I cannot workout on a stomach that is overly full. I have to wait at least an hour after a meal, or 1/2 hour after a snack. @beachbarsnack are the perfect thing to eat beforehand because they have carbs, protein, and fat so your body has enough to run off! Plus, this flavor tastes like Reese’s so...with 150 calories, I still can torch fat and gain muscles without over indulging.
•
Pre-workout supplements are something I’ve had so many issues with. I love how they help my workouts, but many leave my heart pumping too fast, or make me feel like throwing up when my workout is over. Not to mention, I am very sensitive to caffeine, especially when it’s an unnatural form! But @beachbody made a lemon head tasting pre-workout out of all natural ingredients that makes my workouts stronger and faster but leaves me feeling like I can conquer the world!
•
What is your pre-workout routine?!

It’s been awhile, and I have a lot of new followers, so I thought I would do an post that has 8 fun facts about me! I’d love to hear about you in the comments below too!
•
1. My absolute favorite color is yellow. I love the sunshine and sunflowers, but mainly that I feel like it matches who I am. Yellow gives me such an energy and makes me feel powerful!
•
2. I am a part time health/fitness/wellness coach and LOVE IT! I’ve been introduced to women who have changed my life, learned how to have healthier habits, and make extra money all by helping others achieve their goals! I have loved the community, opportunities, and education that this has given me.
•
3. I am currently applying for graduate school to become a Marriage and Family Therapist. I want to specifically work with cancer patients and their families as they face one of the most difficult times in their lives.
•
4. I volunteer at a local hospital in the Oncology unit where I am able to spend time with patients and make their needs heard, while gaining experience for my future career. I am so thankful for this opportunity and to be giving back to my local community!
•
5. I love nature. I love being outdoors and breathing in the fresh air. I have always felt deeply connected to the sun, moon, ocean, and mountains.
•
6. I have a chronic condition called #adenomyosis and sadly there is no known cure. Most women with this condition end up getting a hysterectomy to help, but that’s not a current option for me. So, I use the power of healthy/anti inflammatory eating and exercise to help lessen my symptoms.
•
7. It has taken me YEARS to have the self-love and confidence that I proudly share. I was bullied, I was told I was fat, and I let those comments take me to a deep, dark place that I didn’t think I could ever escape. But then I realized that I am so much more than negativity and I deserve to love myself and give myself the care I need.
•
8. I love to dance, eat tacos, and drink tequila. If I do all 3 in one night...I’m a pretty happy girl 😉 I actually have my BA in Dance...and just an extreme passion for tacos and tequila...
