Quite a few years ago, long before I gave up alcohol, I would not drink on New Year’s Eve because, even as crazy as my life was, I did not want to wake up on a New Year with a hangover. I’ve continued that practice for literally decades.

I’m not one to choose a ‘word’ for the New Year or make resolutions.

I’ve trained and worked in gyms for 20 years. The gym is packed the first two weeks of January. So much for resolutions! 🤣

When January 2024 rolled around, I was already informed of my sisters failing health. There was plenty of emotions around this news. The sad truth is, I’d lost her a very long time ago to drugs and alcohol. She passed that February.

And just a few weeks ago, learned of a sweet friend who passed.

Death makes me think of our own mortality and why it's so important to not get bogged down by so much that is not really important.

I spend quite a lot of time (and money) on personal development, continuing education for my health and fitness credentials, honing my craft, learning how to market my services better, but this year felt like moving in slow motion on a fast train.

I recognized my old habit of avoiding my feelings by throwing myself into as much work as I could handle to the point of exhaustion. Been there before!

Like many of us, we feel times flies. That’s why it’s so vitally important to slow down and have gratitude for where we are, even if it’s not particularly where we’d like to see ourselves.

So, I’ve slowed down to care for myself. Integrating my own medicine.

I could look at the past year as a setback, instead I look at it as a year of learning. How to be a better person, friend, coach, trainer, woman.

The past year was not a loss or failure at all.

I am so grateful. To be here, today. So blessed to be strong and healthy. Deeply honored and humbled when people choose me to walk with them as a guide to better health. In the last 4 weeks I contracted 3 new clients and my dear, longest term client renewed!! All a blessing!

When you purchase a coaching session or personal training package, you are supporting me and my small business and I appreciate that with my whole heart! It's just me. No spouse paying the bills while I build a business. No team doing all the things. Just me. I work hard. I will not quit. Not on my dreams or on myself or on my clients.

Moving into the New Year with gratitude and with intention of letting go with love of things and people that are not in alignment with who I am now.

Peace is my priority.

I will not allow anyone to enter my kingdom with anything less than stellar energy. I may, for the first time since my husband passed, in a very long time, let the tall stone walls that have stood diligent watch over my heart come tumbling down and start dating. I’ve isolated long enough. Life is short. (there may be an application process though 🤣)

Even if you live to 104 like my grandma, life is still short.

I desire a life well lived, with love and laughter. Abundance that looks like health and independence well into my aging. Money to travel. A view to look at every time I sit at my desk that makes me swoon.

I hope all your dreams come true!

Love,
Tandy

Many times in my journey to health & fitness there were stumbling blocks. At every next level I reached I lost people. I learned that some people in my circle were not actually happy for my success. Even my husband, may he rest in peace, tried his best to sabotage my efforts in my weight loss.

What kept me focused was my determination and discipline.
Not motivation.

I would get asked many times how I managed to stay motivated. But what kept me going was discipline. Please believe me when I tell you there have been many times I did not feel like going to the gym, or how lovely a glass of wine sounded, or never mind how much I love chocolate!

Discipline.

There have been times my muscles hurt so badly I cried. There have been times I passed on going out with 'friends' because I quit drinking and preferred to not be in that environment. It was hard, and it was easy. Easy in that my health was my primary focus.

For you see, I had been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. I was ill long before that diagnosis. What I did not know at that time is Type 2 diabetes is a lifestyle disease. What a hard pill to swallow. I did that to myself.

There was a lot going on around that, depression, anxiety, a heart wrenching breakup that I did not handle well, and because of that, I moved cross country and started my life, such as it was, over again.

The one thing about me though, when I decide to make a move, nothing can stop me. I remember sitting in the townhouse on the beach in my husbands ugly brown leather recliner and thought, hmmm if I don't get up and walk out that door, nothing is going to change. And that is exactly what I did.

That decision began an almost 2 year adventure that changed my life forever. I lost 100 pounds and reversed the diabetes. I even came off all prescription medications after a while. I currently have not taken any prescription drugs sans an antibiotic for an ear infection 3 years ago, since 2015.

And that decision lead me to an almost 20 year career in personal training, holistic health, wellness and nutrition. Something I love with all my heart with passion!

Not everyone can do what I did. I did the hard things, with grit and grace. A lot of people stay stuck and won't, for whatever their reasons, won't make a move. I'm not here for them. I'm here for the woman ready to kick ass.

It starts with a decision.

Decide.

Decide you're worthy of the best and healthiest life you can imagine.

Then make a move.

That move may look like contacting me.

We spend years of our lives not taking care of the one thing that is worth more than all the gold on the planet...our bodies.

The ‘system’ is built to keep us looped in, what I call, a ‘sick-care system’.

The f d a allows chemicals in almost every food product available, starting with foods designed for children, to supplements, to what’s fed to factory farm animals. It all ends up on our plate. And we’re supposed to trust that they have our best interest. Not.

There is no profit in healthy people.
Health is our greatest wealth.

Once looped into the broken healthcare system this country is famous for, it will take a very long time to find that healthy life.

How do you change a lifetime of bad habits?
How do you realize the one thing that really matters?
How do you start?

Refuse to give up on yourself.

Somatics, holistic wellness, pranayama, meditation, exercise/movement, just to name a few modalities that help you feel balanced and grounded, energized and vibrant, ready to face each day with vigor and gusto & with a regulated nervous system.

Even well-respected doctors in all the years it takes to earn that doctorate, spend about 5 minutes on nutrition.

They make more bank prescribing pills.

My personal story is long, hard, full of unhealed trauma and heartbreak, not for this post, but to let you inside my life, how I took my health back, how I changed everything and how I stay strong and healthy.

This led me to a 20-year career in holistic health, somatics and personal training, oh and my truest love...yoga.

✨Holistic Energetics✨

If you move through life unwilling to look at a different approach to your own habits and healthcare, I cannot help you.

Updated mindset.

Be willing to put in the work. And it is work.

I am not perfect, but I have a heart of gold.

All my hard work is paying off.
God/Source/Universe has my back.

I do not give any energy to the naysayers or the people who roll their eyes when I talk about my dream life I'm curating.
They are not my people.

I'm here for the people who are looking for a better way to vibrant health, a way to adopt a lifestyle of living with the energy of their younger self, for the ones who understand if they stop moving they will freeze up, like literally!

I also know the key to reversing type 2 diabetes. There is no quick fix, but if you've been diagnosed, feeling kind of stuck and looking for guidance and support, I have several ways to work with me that have the power to change your life. For real.

When you're ready, talk to me.

I currently only work 1:1 private sessions, several options available as far as length of program and what we cover, and flexible scheduling.

Love,

O Divine Spirit,
under the radiance of the final Super Full Moon in Gemini of 2025, I open my heart to release every karmic cord my soul has silently carried.

I cut the threads that bind me to cycles I have already outgrown, freeing myself from energetic debts that no longer serve my evolution.

I release every echo of past lives, past versions, and past identities that have completed their purpose.

I honor the lessons these connections once offered and allow their teachings to return to the light.

I welcome clarity as this moon reveals what my spirit is finally ready to rise beyond.

I release every person who is no longer aligned with the direction of my becoming, even if my heart once clung to their memory.

I let go of those who only chose me when it was convenient and reclaim the energy I once abandoned for the sake of belonging.

I welcome the courage to choose alignment over attachment, truth over longing, and integrity over illusion.

I trust my intuition more than my fears, knowing it has always whispered the truth before I was ready to hear it.

I surrender to the path that leads me forward, not backward.

I release the wounds I pretended did not hurt, the silent heartbreaks I carried alone, and the emotions I hid to appear strong.

I stop forcing what has shown it was never meant for me and forgive myself for staying in places where my light was dimmed.

I let go of guilt, self-blame, and the habit of shrinking to survive.

I honor the parts of me that waited patiently for healing, even when I kept turning away.

I embrace the courage to return to myself with compassion, sortness, and truth.

I release every energetic imprint that is not mine, every weight I absorbed out of empathy, and every burden I carried out of responsibility.

I let go of projections, expectations, and spiritual interference that pulled me away from my center.

I honor the quiet ways my soul has been healing this year, reshaping me from within.

I release the pressure to have everything figured out and make space for divine timing to unfold.

I trust the sacred redirection that guides me where my energy flows with freedom, ot resistance.

I release the timelines, stories, and identities that no longer match the person I am becoming.

I surrender the cycles that have completed and open myself to new paths shaped by truth, purpose, and alignment.

I trust that what is meant for me will rise, that what is not meant will fall away, and that my future calls me with clarity and love.

I allow the Divine to redirect my steps toward the reality my soul has been preparing for.

I thank this final Super Full Moon in Gemini for illumination the ending and blessing the beginning.

As above, so below.
As within, so without.

I welcome 2026 with an open heart.

So mote it be.

During my morning meditation
I focused on letting go of the past
with forgiveness for myself and others
and decided my new life starts today.

I've silently been winning battles.

I'm continually investing in my personal
& business growth.

We just have this one life, and I like to
believe the best days are yet to come!

I feel like I'm walking into the most
vital year of my life.

Every day we have the ability to make choices
Every day our kindness can change someone's life.

Healing wounds can be a lifelong process but
is progress and when we heal our own wounds,
without even knowing, we help others heal theirs.

Green is the color of our heart chakra.
Learn to get out of your head and into your heart.

It will change your life.

To quote Tony Robbins "change your story,
change your life" and this made me reflect on
my story of hardships I've shared, in hopes of reaching
even one person to know they are not alone when
going through tough times.

But my story has changed.

I rewrote my story.

I survived all those things that I didn't know how I would.
Not only survived but have changed my story to one of
success. If I can turn my life around, so can you!

If you are going through a tough time, keep going.

If you falter at how far you have to go, give yourself
credit for how far you've come.

We are all on this journey, there are no hard and fast
rules, there is no destination, just this amazing journey.
Enjoy the ride!

Know you are worthy of all your dreams

Let go of everything that weighs you down
Let it go with love.

Make room for new experiences,
abundance, love and living life to the fullest.

Love all ways,
Tandy

We are all heroes
We are all Warriors
We are all dreamers
We are all designed to thrive.

This takes true strength, true power.

If you are struggling
it is a sign of expansion
There is no growth without struggle.

Great growth happens when we return to ourselves to
Love Nurture Embrace
All that we are

Remind yourself of the strength
it took to get to this day

The paths we take, the choices we make along the way,
Lead us to unexplored territory. We have Glimmers of
What was, what is and what may be.

Walking through this journey of self-actualization.
Through levels of understanding the importance of boundaries, self-care, confidence to make choices of letting go of what is no longer serving your highest and best life.

One of the most healing things we
can do is recognize where in our life we are our own poison.

Glimmers ~ small moments of joy that can bring light to even the darkest days.

Light a candle.
Be a lighthouse.
The world needs your light.
The world needs you to keep shining.

You got this.

Love,
Tandy

I have been in love with the moon for many lifetimes.
The Moon moves the tides
The Moon moves the people

I am a Moon Child

You don’t have to be wealthy to be worthy.
Your worth is in your true nature,
a core of love and inner goodness.

You are a beautiful light.
You are love.

This is a perfect time to let go of
anything and anyone that no longer
serves your higher purpose,
set your intentions by writing them down.

What needs to be released can then be burned
and with the smoke will dissipate.

Just let go.

Let go of the way you thought your life should be.
There is only now.
Embrace the life that is trying to work its way to you.

You have survived everything you thought you could not.
Keep moving forward soldier of the sky.

Everything you need will come to you at a perfect time.
Surround yourself with people who are only going
to lift you higher.

This is how you know who the wild women are.
They are the ones lifting other women up.

Love all ways,
Tandy

There is no profit in healthy people.

When we spend years of our lives not taking care of the one thing that is worth more than all the gold on the planet...our bodies.

Our health is our greatest wealth.

All the fat bank accounts, big houses and fancy sports cars mean nothing if you are ill, or dying. At that point, you'd trade it all just to have your health back.

There are times, I believe, when we are younger, we take so much for granted when it comes to living a healthy lifestyle. We bounce back pretty good when we're in our 20's for the most part. But each decade we are blessed to roam through life, the bad choices are far less forgiving.

Once looped into the broken healthcare system this country is famous for, it will take a very long time to find that healthy life, if ever.

How do you change a lifetime of bad habits?
How do you realize the one thing that really matters?
How do you start?

When people ask me how I lost 100 pounds and reversed type 2 diabetes, I'm fairly certain they really don't want to know the hard truth of what it takes. But the short and doable answer; one day at a time. Sometimes one hour at a time and on hard days, 10 minutes at a time. But I refused to give up on myself.

That journey lead me down a path of what realizing that even well respected doctors (and I had those) in all the years it takes to earn that doctorate, spend about 5 minutes on nutrition.

They make more bank prescribing pills.

My personal story is long, hard, full of trauma and heartbreak, not for this post, but to let you inside my life, how I took my health back, how I changed everything and how I stay strong and healthy. This lead me to a 20 year career in holistic health and personal training, oh and my love...yoga.

Healing (from anything) can be messy and hard
but Not healing is a disservice to yourself
and every current relationship you hold dear, and
every future relationship waiting for you.

Including and especially the relationship you
have with yourself.

Take control of your reality.
Stand in your power.
Own your life.

You are the lead actor in the movie of your life!

Do all the things, whatever that is for you.
Expand your knowledge.

You are the self led woman who knows what she wants.

Find beauty and gratitude in what’s surrounding you.
Be sincere, grounded and compassionate as equally
as you are empowered, fiery and magnetic.

The empowered woman, the woman ready to learn what it takes to fully embody self love, feel like the most irresistible woman on the planet and re-ignite crazy, sexy romance back into your relationships.

You can recreate yourself as many times
and as often as you like. It is never too late to reinvent,
pivot, burn it down and rebuild your life!

You owe no explanation for doing what is best for you.

When you start to see from another perspective, you will be ready to take the time for the strategies to rewire those neurotransmitters that are the catalyst to real change in behavior patterns.

When you make this move you'll attract the ideal people into your inner circle and maybe even fall deeper in love!!

And because of that, you'll discover open windows where once were closed doors.

Have the courage to live a life you love.
Have the courage to have confidence
in yourself and your dreams.
Have the courage to know you are worth
every bit of that dream life.

A better way to live
A better way to think
A better way to "Be"

Show up every day and be your sparkly self.

You not only change the world when you do this, you show the people watching you that they can be their authentic self too.

Fall in love with the woman you see in the mirror.
You deserve a life that sets your soul on fire 🔥

Love all ways,
Tandy
