February 3, 2021, marks the 35th Annual National Girls & Women in Sports Day ( ). Every year, this celebration inspires girls and women to play and be active, to realize their full power ✨

A few pics from the archives:

⚾️ when I interned for the SF Giants in 2018, one of the first things someone said to me was they were stoked to see a girl in the clubhouse, they had previously worked for a NL MLB team in the Midwest that had no female staff and did not allow females in the clubhouse. In 2020, the SF Giants were the first team to hire a full-time female coach in MLB history, Alyssa Nakken, who was also the first female to coach on the field during a major league game.

🏃‍♀️meeting Amby Burfoot at a sports nutrition conference in Portland OR, where he told the stories of Roberta Louise "Bobbi" Gibb running the Boston marathon illegally in 1966, and Kathrine Switzer being the first to run it legally in 1967, despite race officials trying to physically stop her

🏊‍♀️ one of my favorite books by Lynn Cox, an American long-distance open-water swimmer best known for being the first woman to swim between the United States and the Soviet Union, in the Bering Strait—a feat which has been recognized for easing the Cold War tensions between US President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev

🏋️‍♀️ Sam Briggs at the 2014 NorCal CrossFit Regional in San Jose CA, the “Fittest Woman on Earth” at the time. The CrossFit Games has awarded equal prize money to men and women since its inception in 2007, the same year Wimbledon changed to equal pay

🏂 TARA DAKIDES, probably one of my earliest idols along with Tina Basich, who wrote the book “Pretty Good for a Girl”

And lastly, ME! I want nothing more to inspire girls and women of all ages and walks of life to ALWAYS find time to play, be active, and realize their full power 💪💓

Eating out or eating while traveling 🗺

Do you set or follow food rules and feel deprived, or say “f*ck it” and tell yourself you deserve to indulge?

No judgement either way!

Your mindset around food is your choice. I won’t tell you what is right for you, but let me tell you there is a alternative to the all or nothing mindset!

I help people be comfortable with their decisions and approach to food in ANY situation while confidently executing their health and performance goals.

The reality is eating out, social gatherings, travel will eventually come back/ pick back up ... if you have an all or nothing mindset about food in these situations and are tired of it (!) DM me and let’s chat.

This is my first Christmas tree 🎄!!! We didn’t have any ornaments so it was Connie’s idea to decorate it with all our race medals 🤩 I keep adding all your Christmas cards too as they arrive in the mail daily. If you’ve sent one it’s on there! Even if you can’t see it in these pics, it’s there I promise and I love seeing you all everyday 😍 I also tried to put candy canes on the tree but they melted during the day .... San Diego winter problems 😂 Merry Christmas to all 💚❤️

Do you even eat bread???

My neighbor just came to my door step with still-hot-from-the-oven zucchini walnut bread 🤤 and asks me IF I EVEN EAT BREAD

WHY YES. YES I DO !

Question: are you all or nothing when it comes to food and exercise? Diet rules say cut out entire food groups, workout 8 days a week, restrict bad food and you’re perfect or indulge and you’ve given in?

I’m here to tell you that EATING ISN’T CHEATING! There are no good foods and there are no bad foods (okay actually the only bad foods are ones that are rotten or poisonous). Good and bad give food power over you. Don’t let food determine your worth! You are not bad because you ate home baked bread just as you are not good because you ate a salad. You are a human and food is your fuel.

Eating “perfect” on the weekdays is killing your progress if you let the flood gates open on the weekends. Doing a strict diet for 3, 7, 30, or 75 days is like squeezing a turkey baster into the ocean with all your mite in the grand scheme of your lifelong health.

Where’s the ⚖️?

If you need help finding balance, want to fuel your body right for fitness, navigate eating over the holidays (and every day!) and head into A New Year and A New You, DM me a 🍞 emoji

As a dietitian I often hear, “I know what to do, I just don’t do it!” ⠀

I AM GUILTY of the same when it comes to mobility and flexibility! Which is catching up to me 🤪 ⠀

I am certain there are just as many free yoga and self guided PT videos as there are free diet templates on the internet.

But being in this business I know when it comes to my health and my body—the value of having a true expert’s eyes on me treating me as an individual is PRICELESS ⠀

I found DPTs with expertise in running, strength & conditioning, who Rx yoga (something I’ll actually do)! ⠀

Highly recommend and Thank you both and looking forward to more 💪🧘‍♀️
