Brain (Stress, Mindset, Happiness)

It's easy to think that those crazy people who just bound out the door for a run at 5 in the morning were born with that kind of enthusiasm. But that's typically not true! I fell in love with running after high school when I realized you don't actually have to feel like you are dying the entire time. Today I'm sharing my journey and some tips to help you get jumpstarted.

My Top Tips To Start Running

Slow Down

Seriously! You can slow down. You don't hav…

Our society has a messed up relationship with food and it's setting you up to fail. Let's talk about why you're stuck in this cycle of having low energy, not loving the way you feel in your body, and feeling like the only way out is to have a ton of self-discipline and willpower. Okay? (For the video version, scroll to the end of this post.)

Don't think meditating is for you? I get you! I was like that for 30+ years. :-) If you're like me, you have either completely dismissed it as something you're not even interested in OR you tried it but "couldn't do it" because your mind was racing.

But it turns out you don't need to have a calm, clear mind to experience the benefits of meditating. In fact, if you're having a tough time clearing your mind, that's a sign meditating is exactly what you need right now! Today I'm sh…

So many people assume that I’ve always loved eating super healthy and that I could eat whatever I want and still be small. That’s actually not true! I know exactly what it’s like being used to foods like Eggos and Pop Tarts for breakfast, Cheez-its for snacks, and chicken fingers and french fries for dinner out. I also remember the first time I actually started looking at food labels - yikes.

It’s easy to assume that people who look like they effortlessly maintain a healthy life…

One common misconception and excuse I hear a lot is that eating healthy takes more time. Likely that comes from the idea that you have to be spending hours meal prepping in order to turn to healthy options, but that’s totally not true. If meal prepping is something you enjoy, fantastic! But for a lot of my clients, they’re busy and need fast nourishing options to turn to without spending a ton of time in the kitchen. I completely get that!

I’m balancing two careers that I love, but that…

Balance (n): a condition in which elements are equal or in the correct proportions. Balance is that elusive thing we're always aiming for to help us stay afloat and steady in the craziness of life. But the thing about finding balance is that it's a journey not a destination. Even if you stand still, new waves will challenge you. And just like walking on a tight rope, with each new step we take through life we need to work to find a new balance. That's why balance in our lives is someth…

Today I'm going out of my comfort zone and sharing my personal story overcoming limiting beliefs. I'm going to let the video mostly speak for itself. The main message I hope you get out of this is if you currently feel dissatisfied or stuck with where you are in life right now - don't give up. The life that you're dreaming about is probably a lot more attainable than you're letting yourself think. We have one life to live - make sure you're not living with regrets!

How does this sound? Eat as much food as you want, feel totally satisfied, feel confident and comfortable in your body, and achieve the results you want. Too good to be true? Not at all. It's absolutely possible! There's just one small catch, you need (get) to eat real (delicious) food instead of the fake stuff.
