When I took the most recent pictures I was discouraged. I couldn't see much change. Then I created the collage below. It may not be drastic but change I have!
2025 was about laying the foundation.
I established new habits. I changed my daily routine and the things I crave have altered.
2026 will be the lock in year. Building the ground level.
We can work together to lay a solid oundation for your goals. We are in this together 💪

Sometimes, I make mistakes. Sometimes small ones, sometimes as a parent, sometimes at work, and sometimes real big ones that hurt other people.
Intention doesnt always matter, but the impact does.
Repair may or may not follow. All parties involved in the damage need be involved to repair. And sometimes, no repair can be had if someone is unwilling to do the work - maybe they dont want to or the line crossed hurt them too deeply.
What then?
If I shame myself the spiral starts leading me to more bad decisions, more unhealthy behavior, more damage to my body and soul.
Forgiveness.
Im asking for forgiveness.
But what if they cant? Or they do but the relationship is forever altered or ended anyway?
Then, I must forgive myself for choosing a behavior that hurt someone. Forgive and then repair the relationship with myself. Work on the demons and shadows inside me that drove me to make the mistake. Stratglegize how to use a healthful behavior in its place while telling that shadow part- it makes sense why you chose to do that. It is understandable. Understanding doesn't make it permissible; Yes, you did hurt someone in the process and we will work together to ensure it doesnt happen again.
This is the work that people avoid and it is often the work standing in the way of meeting health goals. I know that shame and hiding will lead me to eat and not stop until im so full I can't move. So instead of spiraling, I will do the work of facing some truths. It might be a rough go, but facing it is essential.

As the calendar year comes to a close many will take stock of where they have been and where they want to go with new year resolutions, vision boards, or if you're like me, a bingo card of goals.
However, here in the northern hemisphere we just had the mid winter solstice and the heavier snows of the season are approaching. Most living things are restful this time of year; they're hibernating or at the very least way less active, conserving energy and resources. But humans decided bypassing the natural rhythms of nature and our bodies was best because capitalism demands us always be productive and if not, you're lazy and useless. If you find yourself not wanting to make good on resolutions or goals this time of the season, you arent lazy. You are likely tapping into the latent ancient wisdom that says winter is a time for rest and reflection. The energetic new year is at the spring equinox when there is an influx of energy that propells us. So yes, January can be good for planning but not always good for action. So make the resolutions, have the goals, and then be gentle with yourself. Make goals for rest. Go easy the first part of the calendar year so when the energy shifts, you'll be ready to ride the winds of change.

Ive gained about 5 pounds since Thanksgiving time. I have indulged in a holiday treat or 2 the past few weeks and I last weighed myself in luteal phase which is when we traditionally retain water anyway. Let me tell you why it doesnt bother me.
You maybe be familiar with the acronym NSV - non scale victory. Ive got plenty.
-my clothes are looser and a few new items ive purchased are 1-2 sizes smaller (depending on the style and fit)
-sleeping better (when not in luteal)
- more energy
-better balance
-little to no, left kneee weakness !!
-the type of sore where i go, oh I have a muscle there, and not pain or immobility from being too stiff.
-I utilize progressive overload and lift to failure (while maintaining form) at the gym so the weight im able to lift has steadily increased
-I LOOK FORWARD to the gym. I fantasize about what im going to do or try when I go next. Ive even started the treadmill (gasp!)
- ive been trying out new food or food prepared differently (and exposing my kids to new things, leading by example; teaching balance and moderation rather than restriction)
- I feel comfortable at the gym now
-started meal prepping,
- I was smiling for NO REASON. As I was making a batch of ground beef with veggies in it, I realized i was smiling. I had no music on, kids werent home, I was just stirring the meat. My mind was fairy empty, I wasnt thinking about a person or place other than myself and how PROUD I am for following through on doing the meal prep that day after a great workout even!
Happiness built from the inside out is irreplaceable.
-making a plan and sticking to it, even with a crazy 2 weeks when I was working almost double the hours I normally do and the workload had been heavy
- my daughter watched me do my whole workout today. She made a comment about how strong I am. She was surprised and asked me, how do you do that ? Now I am no heavy lifting person but it filled me with happiness and pride to have my girl see me in that light. I hope I am a good example. I am not disparaging my body, I never have around them. What I do say is that I want to be be healthier by getting my diabetes under control (I have) and be stronger so I can do longer hikes and climb a mountain. This isnt about looking a certain way for me and i certainly dont plan to give them that impression either.

*i dont have any recent nature pics so enjoy some from the gnome roam at Cummings nature center!

Do you have goals you promised yourself you'd make but haven't? Work with me to get your new year goals set. And I hope you read on..

I havent been paying attention to astrology for a few months but serendipity had me see this. I had just been constructing a post about how I've been approaching challenges differently than in my past.
Over this past year I have challenged myself to approach life differently. I finally felt in a place to do something with my health. I have been consistent with staying active. Ive persued hobbies I have long wanted to try. I tried new and different coping mechanisms for stress and difficult emotional hurdles rather than relying on ones that were known and comfortable (eating, watching TV, scrolling. I do still dissociate into fiction books).
Often times I forget that these are things I need to take pride in; these things I have slowly changed. I believe that because I started slow, one habit at a time, the changes have persisted. I have persisted. Not only that, when I do start to reach for old habits, im able to pause. To consider if what im about to do breaks a promise I made to myself. And one very important lesson I learned is that in order to have full self trust, I cant break promises to myself. I can't cross my own boundary. Keeping my word to myself has been a monumental shift in my emotional world.

Sustainable change happens in increments.
And it starts with mindset.
This sunrise was absolutely breathtaking. Even my kids were amazed by the entire kitchen turning pink
(this was a proud parent moment too because I am often telling them, look at the sky! Look at the trees! Look at the moon! And they give me no response lol)
Within 20 minutes it had dissipated, leaving the gray winter sky in it's place.
One mindset - well, that's all the color I will see today, stupid winter i hate it. it's cold, gray, dreary, and miserable!
Or the mindset - what amazing colors! I am grateful i could witness the way the rising sun illuminated the clouds from underneath, creating a contrast of the vivid pink and the darker purple above! What a wonderous world. I can take the memory (and my pictures) to sustain me through the rest of my day. What a great start to the day.
Which will put a smile on your face? Which will fill you with bitterness? Which will fill you with wonder?
I implore you to start a mindset shift, even with things as small as a winter sunrise.

If that is the case, the person is most likely you..
You are the one who gets to write your story.
Some things happen that you dont have a control over, that is true. How you react or pick up the pieces depends on you. Do you let it destroy you or do you face it?
I heard a quote today: "what you run from chases you. What you face, transforms you."
Choose to work with me and you won't be sorry ! Face it all head on, with support

Such a crazy experience on my way to the store today. This hawk wasnt moving when cars went by and I could tell the wing was messed up. I passed by, torn on what to do. I turned around (snapped the photo) and searched what to do. I called a rehab guy and since the hawk had jump in to the wooded area and had made it to a low branch (maybe 5 feet off the ground) to check on it in the morning.if it was still there in the morning then I, yes me, could get it and bring it to him. This prospect both terrified and excited me. On my way back from the store it was still there. When I got home I told the kids about it and we went to see it, but it was gone. Im glad that it was well enough to leave but also sad I dont get to help it. What an experience. Sorry for the dead animal gore.

Some days, the sunrise provides the only bright colors I see all day. I love the winter sunrises at my house (maybe because im actually awake to see them). Today featured a column of pink that pictures just cant do justice.
I live with hope, which Some days can make me more sad, but the alternative (despair) is no longer an option.

Never thought I'd be a gym girl.
But here I am, fiending for my next fix, upset I have worked extra this week and will next week which has and will cut in to gym time.. I even have been getting on the treadmill (gasp! I read while walking, it helps)
Life changes when you finally put yourself and health first. Life changes when you challenge your own norms. It changes when you do something new and scary, pushing through that discomfort.
I do wish i had started in my 20s, but it is never too late. I had a lot of mental and emotional health to work on before I was able to make consistent strides in my physical health.
Thanks for coming along on this ride with me and consider allowing me to assist you in your wellness goals. We got this !
