I help driven women overcome frustration
and overwhelm and build confidence and trust in their body.

Let’s have a little fun ✨

Because when life gets busy (and let’s be real… it will), choosing a word gives you an anchor. Something to come back to when things feel loud, rushed, or overwhelming.

Your word becomes the filter for decisions, boundaries, and how you show up.

And if you’ve already chosen yours, drop me a comment. I love hearing them.

So tell me…
What’s your 2026 word?

(Did you us ChatGPT to find your word? 👀)

Here’s mine: Alignment 💭💖

The biggest difference I see in women who are successfully consistent with healthy eating and working out as a lifestyle are the ones who detach their motivation and effort from the scale.

The ones who recognize that showing up to take care of their bodies feels better than not, that it gives them more energy, increases their performance, improves their relationships, and decreases the mental chatter.

All of these positive benefits come from eating foods in amounts that nourish them and moving their bodies daily - and yet so many woman focus only on whether or not it’s changing their weight. WHY?! Because that’s what we’re being sold - every. single. day. Smaller is better.

How about - STRONGER is better!

The challenging part is that this takes patience. It requires you to put your head down and do the work no matter what. Does it have to be perfectly done, nope, but there does need to be intention to push past all the stories that keep you stuck. “I don’t have time, I don’t have energy, I don’t know what to do, I don’t know if it’s enough, I’m bored, I can’t do that, it’s too cold, it’s too hot, it’s too hard.”

All of those stories, that feel true for you right now, are biologically designed to keep you safe. They’re also what’s standing in your way of living a healthier and happier life.

If you keep starting over - good! That means you haven’t given up yet. But just know, that working with a coach who helps you discover what works best for YOU and get past the self-sabotaging patterns will absolutely improve the journey.

So invest in yourself. Get the clarity on what truly matters. Build the habits that lead to confidence. And then you’ll start to feel like you’re finally out of your own way! 💪🏼♥️

I have 8 spots open for enrollment in my 8-week Strong & Lean Without Extremes group coaching program.

Kickoff begins January 12
The program officially starts January 19

I created this program for women who are already trying. You’re exercising. You care about your health. You’re showing up.

But the results aren’t matching your effort.
Consistency never really happens.
Progress feels unsustainable.

Strong & Lean Without Extremes is about dialing things in.

We focus on the things that matter. Building strength. Nourishing your body. And learning how to respond differently to the inner voice that keeps telling you you’re not doing enough.

This happens inside a small, committed group of women who are ready to do the work. There’s accountability and encouragement built in, and I guide the process so you’re not left guessing or doing this alone.

I’ve been a personal trainer for over 20 years and have helped hundreds of women build strength, confidence, and consistency by aligning training, nutrition, and mindset instead of swinging between doing it all or doing nothing.

If you want 2026 to feel different, not just in weight loss, but in how aligned you feel in your daily choices and how confident you feel in your body, this is where that shift begins.

The next step is to like this post and comment STRONG if you want the details.

I have this hope that my kids grow up thinking movement is just a part of life. Not something you do when you’re motivated. Not something you do to fix your body. Just something you do a little bit of every day to feel strong and confident.

I see it over and over, when moms take care of themselves, it changes the tone of the whole household. 💪🏼♥️

What do you want your kids to grow up thinking is normal about taking care of yourself?

For years, January felt like pressure.
New rules. Big promises. Another chance to “do it right.”

So I stopped doing that.
Instead of trying to overhaul my life on January 1, I start quietly practicing in December.

Not perfectly.
Not all at once.
Just enough to remind my body and brain what consistency feels like.

I pick a few simple anchors and treat December like a low-pressure rehearsal:
• getting my strength workouts in
• prioritizing protein without tracking perfectly
• prepping one meal ahead instead of all of them

Nothing extreme. Nothing rigid.

The result?
January doesn’t feel like a restart anymore. It feels like a continuation.

No panic.
No “I have to get this right.”
No crash-and-burn by week two.

If you’re someone who’s already doing something, but feels like you lose momentum every December and start over every January, this is your permission not to grip so tight.

Consistency doesn’t start with motivation.
It starts with removing pressure.

Follow along if you want strength, structure, and habits that don’t fall apart every holiday season.

December doesn’t need a complete reset, it needs structure.

If you’re already active but feel like the holidays derail your consistency, this is your anchor.

Two to three short strength sessions a week is enough to maintain momentum, protect your energy, and walk into January feeling capable instead of behind.

Save this for your next workout.

And if you want help creating structure that actually fits your life, follow along, that’s what I coach.

12/15/2025

“I know exactly what I should be doing… so why does December always derail me?”

If that thought has been on repeat, this is for you.
You’re not unmotivated.
You don’t need another meal plan.
And you definitely don’t need to “be more disciplined.”

What you need is structure during a month that has none.
That’s why I created the FREE Sleigh the Day Holiday Support Guide, a simple daily framework to help you stay anchored when routines fall apart.

Each day, you focus on a few non-negotiables that actually matter:
• moving your body in a way that fits your day
• eating in a way that supports energy
• getting enough rest to think clearly
• checking in with your mindset so you don’t spiral

No all-or-nothing rules.
No starting over in January.

Just small, doable actions, with someone in your corner so you can keep moving through December without losing trust in yourself.

If you’re tired of knowing what to do but struggling to follow through when life gets busy, this is your next step.

DM me “SLEIGH” and I’ll send you the details.

I took a break from my strength training at the gym last month because life was pulling me in different directions for a bit. I continued to workout at home, but my workouts
were less intense and focused. Coming back to the gym felt harder than I expected.

It’s been freezing cold, and going to the gym requires me to get up earlier and go to bed earlier. It wasn’t that I didn’t love the gym. I just didn’t feel like fighting all those hurdles to get there.

Most people assume coaches stay motivated all the time. We don’t. Motivation isn’t a personality trait. It’s built through small, daily actions, just like it is for everyone else.

The first step I took was simple. I texted my gym buddy and told her I planned to show up. I wanted someone else to know my intention so I couldn’t back out. That one
message created accountability, and it worked. Just saying it out loud helped me follow through.
I knew that once I showed up a few times, that spark would come back. And it did.

Action builds motivation, not the other way around.
If you’re trying to get back into a routine, keep going. It feels hard at first, but it won’t be long before you’re looking forward to the thing that feels tough right now.

Have you ever had to restart after a break? What helped you find your footing again?

12/12/2025

The holidays don’t have to leave you feeling stretched thin or running on stress and caffeine.

For the driven women I work with, these simple daily swaps are what help them feel stable, steady, and in control without needing a perfect routine.

These habits carry you into 2026 feeling stronger, more refreshed, and more capable of sticking to the goals you keep putting off.
Follow for more strategies that actually fit your life.

Which swap feels doable for you this week?
