My friend told me today my butt looked good. 😂 😂 😂

I told her it’s the bridges in INFERNO class.

So this is my PSA…

You want a strong body and better b***y? Come to class with me at .

But I must warn you.

Aside from a strong body and better b***y, you’ll also experience increased confidence, a healthier mindset, more joy, and better training runs.

Enter at your own risk. 🤪

It’s not too late. You’re not too old.

I took me 20 years to check “teach fitness” off my bucket list.

This week I taught 5 Inferno Hot Pilates classes and I have one more to go.

Fitness and Mindset go hand in hand.

If you’re not already making fitness (ie strong body) a priority in your life, this is your invitation to GO 👏 DO 👏 IT!

DM for a free pass to one of my classes at while they last.

Small and might 6am crew! Lots of snow on the ground often means cancellations for people who can’t safely make it to the Thursday INFERNO class.

And then there are these brave souls.

If you missed the early class come see me for a quick 45 min ab, glute, and HIIT workout at 12:15pm South.

Stay safe Spokane!

In January 2025 I launched a new group called The Healing & Growth Circle.

The purpose? A place for women to grow and evolve beyond the twelve steps of Alanon.

I learned a lot in year one but the biggest lesson was that women are in NEED of this type of community.

Every time I start to think maybe this isn’t something women are searching for, someone appears in my orbit with a history of navigating a loved one’s addiction, a desire for personal growth, and a space that understands both of these things.

With more than 20 years on the other side of the chaos, and a love for all things personal growth, I’m excited to continue providing this space and cultivate a community that brings women together with a plan for their continued growth.

This month we are focusing on Rebuilding Identity, because at the heart of true recovery is rediscovering and reclaiming WHO you are.

Our next in person meet up is January 15th at 6pm (Spokane, WA).

Why not stop winging it this year?

New year, first run done ✔️

I’m focusing on 5Ks this year and building speed one run at a time.

First race is at the end of February.

Also, Inferno Hot Pilates teaching starts tomorrow and I’m genuinely excited to be back guiding movement.

Here’s to moving our bodies and showing up on purpose in 2026.

What are you focused on this year?

Monday Mindset

As the year comes to a close, it’s worth naming this:
Growth isn’t measured by how calm life looks on the outside. It’s measured by how honest you’ve been with yourself.

If you’ve spent years orienting around someone else’s chaos, reflection can bring clarity, grief, or relief — sometimes all at once.

What truth about yourself are you no longer willing to ignore as you step into a new year?

Awareness is a powerful form of self-care.

Tonight’s Reflection — Choosing Presence Over Pressure

December has a way of asking a lot from us.
More events. More expectations. More “just push through.”

Tonight’s reflection is this:

Where in your life are you forcing consistency when discernment is what’s actually needed?

A few gentle prompts to sit with:

What would it look like to respond to reality instead of pushing through out of obligation?

Where might rest, pause, or rescheduling actually be an act of self-trust?

If you honored your energy tonight, what would you choose?

There’s no right answer. Just honesty.

Sometimes growth doesn’t look like showing up louder; it looks like choosing alignment and letting that be enough.

Nothing is impossible. The word itself says “I’m possible.” Whatever the thing is you know you’re supposed to do, this is your reminder to do it.

Movement has always been a part of my healing and growth.

Twenty years ago, walking was the first thing I did to take care of myself when my life felt heavy and chaotic. Walking turned to running, then group fitness, then hot yoga. I love them all. ♥

And now, all these years later, I’m stepping into a new chapter of fitness.

I just finished a week of training with Gabi Walters at Inferno Hot Pilates to become an IHP instructor!!!! Woo Hoo.

Not as a new direction, but as an expansion of everything I already do — helping women rebuild strength, reconnect to themselves, and remember their personal power.

Coaching. Healing. Movement.
For me, they all belong together.

For my Spokane women:
I’ll be teaching locally at BeYOUtiful Hot Yoga soon, and I can’t wait to bring this blend of strength + mindset + empowerment into our community.

Step 12 – Thriving Is Possible

From pain to peace.
From control to compassion.
From codependency to kindness.

Step 12: the one where we give back.
Could there be a better day to close this series than ?

Proactive Twelve Step Language: My life reflects a growing sense of respect and compassion for myself and others. I share this process with others who are struggling.

My Version: My life represents growth, self-compassion, and personal freedom from the chaos caused by a loved one’s addiction. I share this process with others who are struggling.

Roast: Congrats, you’re now living proof that thriving is possible. Please teach the class, but maybe skip the PowerPoint.

If any of these twelve steps stirred something in you—if you’re ready to turn reflection into forward motion—join me for a free one-week Momentum Challenge starting November 19.

We’ll reconnect with our energy, rebuild consistency, and create momentum through small daily reflections.

Comment MOMENTUM or send me a DM, and I’ll get you the details.

What if you believed with your whole heart the truth about the endless possibilities that exist for you?

If you’ve ever loved someone struggling with addiction, you know how easy it is to lose yourself in their chaos.

Maybe you’ve done the work to find your footing again — or maybe you’re still figuring out how to shift the focus back to you.

Either way, this is your next step forward.

Starting November 19, I’m hosting a Mini Momentum Challenge inside my Healing and Growth Circle Facebook Group. It's a free one-week experience designed to help you reconnect with your energy and create forward motion through small, daily reflections.

Each morning, I’ll share one simple prompt to help you pause, reflect, and take action — plus an optional Daily Fire from the Growth Day app for a quick burst of inspiration.

If you’ve been craving progress, peace, and a renewed sense of focus, this is for you.
