Aging doesnāt have to equal lowering our standards, or downgrading our goals.
The picture on the left popped up this week in memoriesā¦I had just turned 40, I was about 7 months post-partum with Gabriel.
I remember thinking, Iāll never do a photoshoot again, let alone wear a bikini.
Turning 40, having a c-section and fluctuating hormones were all against me, right?!
The picture on the right was taken yesterday. The weekend was spent enjoying Easter festivities, libations and a few mini eggs š«¶š„
I do believe that what we do most of the time matters, not what we do some of the time.
So yes, MOST of the time, Iām prioritizing protein, water, resistance training and sleep. Most of the time my health and fitness are my priorities.
At 46, Iād love to tell my 40 year old self that her goals donāt have to diminish or change. She can still want the best for her physical body (and mental, emotional, spiritual etc), but perhaps the way to achieve those goals needs tweaking. Perhaps it takes some different approaches, tools and a slightly more uphill battle ⦠but itās still possible!
Please keep going. Donāt let society or āyour pre-conceivedā notions of what aging should look like deter you from going after your biggest dreamsā šŖšš»
