We’ve all been there, haven't we? January 1st feels like the perfect time for a "new you." But by January 15th, life gets busy, the kids are home sick, or work piles up, and that big resolution starts to feel like just another chore on your to-do list.

If you’ve ever set a big New Year’s resolution, “I’m going to work out every day!”, ”I’m cutting out sugar!”, “I’m starting a morning routine!”, you’ve probably felt the rush of motivation that comes with a fresh start.

But what happens when the new year comes and you have to get started? If starting, or staying consistent with, a new years resolution feels hard, you’re not alone. 

And here’s the beautiful thing:
My clients aren’t succeeding because they’re dieting or working harder.
They’re succeeding because they’re caring for themselves better.

Do you ever feel like you’re either all in—perfect workouts, perfect meals—or all out, doing nothing at all? That all-or-nothing cycle is exhausting, and it keeps so many women stuck.

Did you know that women can begin to lose 1-2% of muscle mass every year after 40? This gradual shift might make everyday tasks—like carrying groceries or climbing stairs—feel more challenging. But fear not! You don't have to let this become your future.

Too much cardio after 40 can actually slow your metabolism and make it harder to keep muscle. Here’s the missing piece women often overlook — and why strength training should be your new best friend.

I am often asked the question, “what do I need for my home gym”. My short answer? You need whatever you are going to use…

I often think about my own motivations for being active like I am - what are my goals, why do I do the things that I do? As someone whose work and passion is to help draw goals and motivation out of others, I find it of particular interest to think about what makes me so drawn toward an active lifestyle…

I have worked hard to make my focus these days on what I am doing right rather than something I am doing wrong:

1) Am I strong and healthy? Am I consistent in doing the things I know will keep me that way, and get me stronger and healthier?…

…I do firmly believe that the keys to overcoming that pull toward a comparison mindset is to be so clear on who you are, where you want to go and what you want to achieve. Knowing your own lane.
