This is my husband.
Same man. Same heart.
Very different chapter. ❤️

The photo on the bottom was taken before he committed to working with a coach.
The photo on top is what happens when consistency, accountability, and support come together.

I wasn’t just watching this transformation — I was coaching him through it.

This isn’t about perfection.
It’s about having someone in your corner when life gets busy, habits slip, or motivation fades.

I see firsthand what coaching can do — not just physically, but mentally, emotionally, and inside a marriage. When one person commits to being better, it lifts the whole household. When you do it together? That’s powerful.

✨ In honor of my husband, I’m opening ONE nutrition coaching spot with a special offer:
👉 Buy one package, get your spouse’s coaching FREE
So you can support each other, grow together, and become your absolute best — side by side.

There’s nothing greater in a marriage than choosing each other and your health.

💬 DM me TOGETHER if you want the spot.

I've been seeing this message a lot on instagram: “Just follow the 80/20 rule!”
But honestly… what does that even mean in real life?

Here’s the simplest way to picture it:

A week has 21 meals (3 per day).
✔️ 80% = 17 meals that align with your goals
✔️ 20% = 4 meals where you build in flexibility

And...this picture?
✨ I’m fully enjoying my 20% — guilt-free, because it fits right into the plan
Check out Emilio's in Belmar for this yummy cabbage dish!

The 80% moves you forward.
The 20% keeps you sane, social, and human.

When you think of it this way, healthy eating becomes a whole lot more doable. 💚

40 minutes of cardio… and I didn’t die. 😂

I thought I hated cardio. Truly. Stick me on a treadmill or stair master for 40 minutes and I’m out. Not only did it feel awful — it made me not want to do it at all.

But today was completely different.

I’m older now. The cardio I hammered through as a young gal is not the cardio I can do today and still feel good. My knees, my joints, and my recovery matter. I’m not interested in beating myself up — I’m interested in aging well.

So Coach Catie and I talked about how to build cardio that actually supports where I’m at right now. She suggested the Myzone heart rate monitor, showed me how to use it, and helped me set up a session that worked with my body — not against it.

Instead of one boring machine, I rotated the skier, air bike, ball slams, and rower. I’d bring my heart rate up to around 85%, let it come down to 65%, then switch. Manageable. Joint-friendly. Honestly? Kind of fun.

The first 20 minutes were steady, chatty, and totally doable.

Then I added a little intensity: 3 single-arm snatches each side, EMOM style (every minute on the minute) for 15 minutes. Your rest is whatever time you have left. Still joint-friendly, still doable, and it felt like playing rather than punishing.

And that’s really the message: cardio doesn’t have to suck — especially as we age.
If it does, you might be stuck in all-or-nothing thinking or relying on “motivation.”

Use your tools.
Honor your joints.
Work with a coach who understands your body (thank you, Catie and Michele!).
Grab a buddy.
Try a heart-rate monitor and make it a little game.

Just get moving — in ways that protect your body and keep you coming back. 💙💪

All you need is one kettlebell to get started. 🔔

With just a single bell, you can:

✅️ Get your heart rate up for a heart-healthy cardio session ❤️

✅️ Build strength that supports your bones and joints 💪

✅️ Train at home, in less time, without complicated equipment 🏡

If you’re over 45, this is a game-changer. You don’t need endless miles on the treadmill or a full gym to improve your fitness. One bell is enough to boost your energy, protect your health, and help you stay strong and independent for years to come.

I’m still learning my kettlebell cleans — and I love it. They’re not perfect (yet), but every class I get a little better. Two hands feels more natural right now, and that’s okay. Progress always beats perfection.

What’s powerful about this process is that it mirrors what my clients experience. When you’re starting something new — whether it’s kettlebells, strength training, or even just building healthier habits — it doesn’t feel smooth at first. But with the right guidance, consistent practice, and a supportive environment, you will get stronger and more confident.

Working alongside Coach Caity at Aspire Fitness reminds me of the importance of staying coachable. Even after years in fitness and teaching, I still seek out experts who can push me, correct me, and help me grow. That’s the same approach I bring to my clients, breaking things down into doable steps, and celebrating progress along the way.

For anyone 50+ who feels unsure about starting (or restarting) a fitness journey: you don’t need to be perfect, you just need to begin. Strength training is not only about physical muscles — it builds resilience, energy, and confidence that translates into every area of life.

I’m proof that it’s never too late to learn, to grow, and to get stronger. My clients are proof too. ❤️

Off-Season = Growth Season 🍂💪

When the weather cools down and we start layering up, most people naturally shift into an “off-season.” Meals get heartier, nights come earlier, and activity sometimes slows down.

Instead of fighting it, embrace it—with structure.

✅ Track your food
✅ Track your weights & steps
✅ Prioritize sleep & stress management
✅ Drink your water
✅ Lift as heavy as you safely can

This is the time to use those extra calories to grow muscle.

I’m in that season myself. I’m eating more on purpose—because muscle matters as we age.

🌟 Being too skinny actually makes me look older (less fullness in my face).
🌟 Having less muscle makes bones brittle and the body frail.

So I’m choosing strength, not frailty. More food, heavier lifts, and building muscle that will serve me for years to come.

👉 Off-season isn’t a break. It’s an investment.

Are you ready to use this season to grow?

🎉 Big news to share! 🎉

I officially passed my AFAA Group Fitness Certification Exam today! 🙌
This is one of many certifications I’m working on as I prepare for retirement and step fully into the health & fitness field.

For me, this is more than just a hobby or a passion project — it’s proof that I’m serious about growing, learning, and building the skills I need to support others. Every certification I add is another step toward serving my community in the best way possible.

I’m grateful for the journey so far and so excited about what’s ahead. 💪✨ This is just the beginning!

✨ Today felt like a glimpse into my future.

I had the day off, so I got up early, drove back to my hometown, and stepped into a beautiful gym. I had the privilege of training with an incredible coach who is helping me grow—not just as an athlete, but as a coach myself.

As I inch closer to retirement, I couldn’t help but think: this is the kind of day I want to repeat again and again. Movement, learning, connection, and health.

I feel so grateful for the people I’ve met through fitness and the larger health space. Each connection is a reminder that prioritizing my health isn’t selfish—it’s a gift that allows me to show up fully for myself, my clients, and the next chapter of my life.

Here’s to more mornings like this, filled with strength, gratitude, and possibility. 💪🌿

Last week I trained with Coach Caity to refine my kettlebell skills. This week, I’m integrating that knowledge into my coaching—teaching my clients the very techniques I’ve been practicing.

In fitness (and in leadership), the process is the same:

✅️ Seek out expert guidance.

✅️ Put in the reps yourself.

✅️ Translate that learning into clear, actionable steps for others.

My clients get training that’s safe, tested, and broken down into cues that actually make sense. It helps them build strength with less frustration, more confidence, and faster progress.

Teachers, I know how it feels… the days are long, the to-do list never ends, and by the time we think about the gym, the energy is gone. 💯

But here’s the thing: taking care of you doesn’t have to mean a full hour at the gym. Even 11 minutes of movement can shift your energy, clear your head, and remind you that your health matters, too.

I put together a quick “better than nothing” workout you can do right at home — no fancy equipment, no drive time, just 11 minutes to recharge. Because self-care isn’t optional… it’s essential if we’re going to keep showing up for our students and ourselves. 🍎💪

Here’s to a school year where we prioritize both our classrooms and our well-being. You’ve got this — and you deserve it. 🙌

I’m headed to Denver in 2 weeks! to get certified in kettlebells, so I’ve been practicing. Why does this matter for you?

Because kettlebells:
✅️ build strength
✅️ keep your joints healthy

For adults 45+, that’s powerful. Every certification I pursue means I’m bringing more knowledge and better tools for YOU to stay strong + confident at any age.
