😴 Are you tired of being tired? Does it feel like it takes forever for you to fall asleep? Well give this a try...

⏰Set a consistent bedtime (ideally no later than 10pm). Our body relies on proper signals to know when it's time to fall asleep. Normal circadian rhythm fluctuates between cortisol (a stimulating hormone) and melatonin (a sleep-inducing hormone). Things that influence a normal circadian rhythm are sunlight, food, physical activity, & previous rhythm patterns.

Because of this rhythm pattern, it's important to be consistent with your sleep and wake times. This allows your hormones to follow a similar pattern each day as well. Thus, your sleep patterns can be more consistent and restorative.

And who doesn't want to wake up feeling energized and refreshed? Let me know in the comments what the biggest challenge is for you in having a consistent bedtime.

Midlife is Different

What worked at 35 doesn’t always work at 55—and that’s normal.

Midlife brings:
• different energy
• different stress
• different priorities

So when old strategies stop working, it’s not a failure—it’s a signal.

Extreme plans and rigid rules often backfire in this season.
Consistency, simplicity, and support work better.

Your body didn’t suddenly “stop working.”
It just needs a different approach.

If you're overwhelmed by all the information and are looking for support & accountability, health coaching may be for you!

DM me to start the conversation.

Sustainable habits don’t rely on motivation.

They work even when:
✔️ you’re tired
✔️ life gets busy
✔️ things aren’t perfect

Sustainable habits are simple, flexible, and supported.

This is exactly how I help women in midlife stop starting over — through personalized, weekly 1:1 support that fits real life.

No extreme diets or workouts.
No guilt.
Just consistency that finally sticks.

💬 DM me CONSISTENT if this feels like what you need.

Definitely a move in the right direction! What are your thoughts about the new guidelines? https://www.facebook.com/share/p/17ZNvWPeAw/

Under President Trump’s leadership, common sense, scientific integrity, and accountability have been restored to federal food and health policy.

For decades, the Dietary Guidelines favored corporate interests over common-sense, science-driven advice to improve the health of Americans.

That ends today.

The new Dietary Guidelines call for prioritizing high-quality protein, healthy fats, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains—and avoiding highly processed foods and refined carbohydrates.

“I know what to do… I just can’t stick with it.”

If knowledge was enough, you’d already be where you want to be. Trust me...I know this one deep down.

This isn’t a willpower problem.
It’s a support problem.

Most women in midlife are trying to stay consistent while:
• managing stress
• caring for others (older kids, aging parents)
• juggling changing energy levels (hello hormone roller coaster!)

You’re not broken.
You’re just doing this alone.

And you don’t have to anymore.

💬 Comment ME if this sounds familiar.

January is the perfect time to get intentional with protein 💪✨

If you want steady energy, fewer cravings, and better muscle support (hello metabolism 👋), protein needs a seat at every meal and snack.

Easy protein wins:
🥚 Eggs
🍗 Chicken or turkey
🥣 Greek yogurt or cottage cheese
🐟 Fish & seafood
🥩 Lean beef
🌱 Beans, lentils, tofu
🥜 Nuts, seeds & quality protein powders

Why it matters:
✔ Keeps blood sugar stable
✔ Helps you stay full longer
✔ Supports muscle + metabolism
✔ Boosts energy and focus

January isn’t about perfection—it’s about building habits that actually stick beyond the first few weeks of the new year. Start small: add protein first, then build the rest of your plate around it.

Start working your way to better health, one bite at a time. 💥🥗

Monday isn’t the problem. The plan is.

If starting over every Monday actually worked,
you wouldn’t still be starting over.

Most plans fail because they’re built for:
• perfect weeks
• unlimited motivation
• zero stress

Real life doesn’t look like that — especially in midlife.

Sustainable habits don’t require resets.
They work on random Wednesdays when you’re tired, busy, and off routine.

You don’t need another Monday restart.
You need habits that fit real life — and support that helps you stay consistent.

Comment below what habits you struggle to be consistent with most.

✨ ADVENT WELLNESS CHALLENGE DAY 24: BE IN THE PICTURES ✨**

Tonight is Christmas Eve.
And today’s action has nothing to do with food, movement, or routines.

👉 **Be in the pictures.**

Don’t step out because you don’t like how you look.
Don’t hide behind the camera.
Don’t wait until you feel “better,” “leaner,” or “more confident.”

These photos aren’t about your body.
They’re about your **presence**.

One day, these pictures will be priceless —
to your kids, your family, your people.
They’ll see love. Laughter. Safety. Home.
Not the things you’re critiquing in the mirror.

Your body has carried you through another year.
It deserves to be remembered **as part of the story**.

✨ **ACTION:** Get in the photo tonight.
Smile. Hold your people close.
You belong in the memory. 💛🎄

Merry Christmas Eve.

✨ ADVENT WELLNESS CHALLENGE DAY 23: CHOOSE ONE 2026 HABIT ✨

As we head toward a new year, let’s do this differently.
Not more goals.
Not more rules.
Just one habit you can actually keep. 💛

Today’s Wellness action:
👉 Choose ONE habit to carry into 2026.

Not the perfect habit.
Not the hardest habit.
The one that feels supportive and realistic.

A few ideas if you need inspiration:
• Protein at breakfast
• Water before coffee
• A daily walk
• Strength training 2–3x/week
• A consistent bedtime
• 5 minutes of morning light
• A calm evening routine

Consistency beats intensity every time — especially in midlife.
One habit, repeated, changes everything.

✨ ACTION: Comment the ONE habit you’re choosing for 2026.
I’ll be cheering you on every step of the way. 💛

✨ ADVENT WELLNESS CHALLENGE DAY 21: WRITE A WIN LIST ✨

If you’re quick to notice what didn’t go well this year…
today is your gentle pause to see what DID. 💛

Today’s Wellness action:
👉 Write a list of 5 health wins from this year.

They don’t have to be big.
They don’t have to be consistent.
They just have to be true.

Your wins might look like:
• You added more protein (even some days)
• You started walking or moving more
• You learned to listen to your body
• You handled stress differently than before
• You didn’t quit — even when life got busy

Why this matters (especially in midlife):
⭐ Builds confidence + self-trust
⭐ Reinforces progress (not perfection)
⭐ Reduces all-or-nothing thinking
⭐ Makes consistency easier moving forward

You are not starting from zero.
You are building from experience.

✨ ACTION: Comment ONE win you’re proud of this year — big or small.
Let’s celebrate each other. 💛

✨ ADVENT WELLNESS CHALLENGE DAY 19: LOWER YOUR SUGAR (JUST FOR TODAY) ✨

This is not a “cut out sugar forever” moment.
It’s a one-day experiment — that’s it. 💛

Today’s Wellness action:
👉 Choose ONE source of added sugar to skip today.

Just one.
Not all the things.
Not perfection.

Examples you might choose:
• sweetened coffee creamer or syrup
• soda or sweet tea
• afternoon candy or cookies
• late-night dessert out of habit

Why this matters (especially in midlife):
⭐ More stable energy
⭐ Fewer cravings later in the day
⭐ Better sleep tonight
⭐ Improved blood sugar balance
⭐ Less “wired but tired” feeling

Pay attention tonight and tomorrow morning —
how do you sleep? How do you feel when you wake up?

✨ ACTION: Comment what sugar you’re skipping today — or drop a 🍬 if you’re in but keeping it simple.

One day. One choice. Big awareness. 💛
