To me, Fearless Pursuit means feeling confident and capable enough in both body & mind to still go after the things that scare you.

To keep doing the stuff that makes you feel most alive, and have FUN doing it.

When I think about the one thing I want to help people be able to continue doing in their lives, it’s this!

Sometimes that might be simple and quite literally getting “back on the track” like I did tonight…but the point is to consider what that might be for you: this week, this summer, this year?

If you can relate to this, share in the comments what fearless pursuits you have for this upcoming season. I’d love to support you in your goals.

We’ll cover:
• How to properly warm up before your runs
• Simple recovery strategies
• Key strength exercises to keep you running pain-free

This will be interactive, practical, and built so you can start using it right away.

Big goals are built on the small wins!

If we don’t take time to notice them and reflect, it’s easy to miss the progress you’ve already made or get frustrated with the length of the process.

This is why every week I ask my clients to reflect on wins (mental or physical) to stay motivated, shift perspective, and keep moving forward.

It’s also just good to recognize that when you show up for yourself consistently, things keep moving.

Drop a win you’ve had this week in the comments 👏

What does a coffee cup have to do with understanding pain?

More than you might think!

The coffee lover in me has always appreciated the analogy, but it really does make sense. Your pain experience isn’t just about a single injury point— it’s also often about how full your “cup” is.

Stress, poor sleep, overtraining, other life stuff… it all adds up. Then when your cup overflows, your body feels it.

That’s why some days might feel totally fine,
and others everything flares up at once, “randomly”.

So what do you do?

You can either take things OUT of the cup…
or build a BIGGER one.

Pain is more than just physical—and if you’ve been stuck in this tough cycle, it’s understandably frustrating. DM me “overflow” to chat about what it might look like to start taking action on breaking it!

Yesterday was a great reminder for me:

Strength isn’t just about the gym.

It’s about being able to say “yes” to moments that really matter. I got out for a small hike with my son for the first time, and it was so meaningful. My legs were tired—but my body was capable of the task.

These are the moments that can keep you inspired when the training gets hard, or you think your injury or setback will never get better.

If pain, stiffness, or fear is making you hesitate and you’re not fully living the way you know you can…

Let’s build a plan and change that.

Most people don’t avoid fixing pain because they don’t care.

They avoid it because they feel like they don’t have time.

Work. Kids. Training. Life.

And if it’s “not that bad yet,” it gets pushed down the list, but waiting is what actually costs you more time.

More time modifying workouts.
More flare-ups.
More frustration.
More starting over.

And eventually… more appointments and medical intervention needed.

This is exactly why I built my model differently, with emphasis on virtual support.

You don’t need 2x/week clinic visits to get better.

You need a clear plan, the right guidance and support when you need it, so you can progress early and have flexibility.

The goal isn’t to take more of your time—it’s to give it back so you can keep doing what you enjoy most.

If something’s been lingering… it might be time to take a closer look.

Return to sport is always a special moment—and this girl’s journey is one I’ll remember.

ACL rehab isn’t something anyone asks for—especially at 13. But she showed up week after week, driven by a love for basketball and the big dreams she has. No previous background in formal strength training, just a willingness to learn, work hard, and trust the pace.

Between in gym sessions with me, guided independent workouts, run training, on-court progressions and then return to practice…she put in months of work!

Sending a huge congrats to Presley on her return to basketball! You’re not just back—but stronger in every sense of the word 🏀💪

Pain right below your kneecap?

It’s often your patellar tendon getting irritated, and one of the biggest mistakes I see is people completely avoiding loading it. The problem is, if you just rest it, the pain usually comes right back when you return to the same activities.

Instead, we want to gradually rebuild the tendon’s ability to tolerate load—finding that sweet spot where we’re stressing it enough to improve, but not so much that we flare it up. And yes, some manageable pain during exercises is okay and can actually mean you’re targeting the right area.

One of my go-to exercises for this is the heel elevated goblet squat. Let your knees track over (or slightly past) your toes and keep your chest up, so the quads do good work. Go slow on the way down with a pause at the bottom. That time under tension is key for building strength while keeping symptoms manageable.

If you’ve been dealing with front-of-knee pain and aren’t sure how to work through it, feel free to send me a message—happy to help you figure out your next step!

It can be so frustrating when things aren’t going “exactly according to plan”! But ultimately you just gotta roll with it and adapt.

This week, I had to shift my schedule on the fly. Childcare fell through & my whole calendar changed (I know my fellow parents can relate!) —it made me think of this lesson & how often I’m applying it when working with clients.

The injury itself is one disruption—but what really challenges people is everything that comes after. The unexpected setbacks, the slower days, the weeks that feel like you’re taking 2 steps backwards.

When navigating these hard days or weeks, think about the analogy of a big hike. There’s always unexpected turns, downhill portions, but ultimately you’re still going “up” along the way.

What really helps with this is having a guide you trust as you continuously adapt your plan, and my goal with clients is to provide as much communication & clarity as possible when these expected curveballs pop up during rehab.

Share this with someone who’s in a frustrating season right now—or drop a comment if you’ve been there too!

If you deal with lateral hip pain, IT band irritation, or even knee pain, one thing I often look at is the strength of the lateral glutes.

These muscles help control your pelvis and knee when you’re standing or moving on one leg—something runners, hikers, and cutting athletes do all the time.

The single-leg fire hydrant is a simple but challenging way to start building that stability while also working well as part of a movement warm-up.

Give these a try and your hips will thank you!

“I’m feeling good… I just don’t want to flare things up again.”

I hear this a lot when people get back to the gym or when returning from injury.

When training starts feeling good, the biggest challenge isn’t motivation — it’s knowing how fast to progress.

Strength and resilience are built through consistent effort over time, not by pushing at 110% every workout.

Some days the smartest thing you can do is train with the energy you have, not the energy you wish you had.

Slow and steady really does win the race!
